I can't speak! I don't remember words! My English Sucks! Blah blah blah blah blah…

If I had a penny for every negative thought someone in the English learning community has had about their English, I'd leave Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates in the dust and become the wealthiest woman on the planet.

You guys, this is SERIOUS. These thoughts… They keep getting in your way.
Wouldn't it be nice to just – not have them?

Listen to this episode to get my scientifically proven technique to overcome these thoughts.
