You know the words. You’ve been doing your Czech lessons, listening to podcasts, repeating phrases…
But then a Czech person talks to you, and—bam—you go blank.
Sound familiar?

You’re not alone. That freezing moment? It’s not your fault. It’s not about not knowing enough.
It’s about your brain freaking out and switching into survival mode.
In this video, we break down exactly why this happens—and more importantly, how you can stop it.

In real-life conversations, your brain needs to feel safe to access the Czech you already know.
You’ll discover:

• Why the “freeze” response is physiological (not a language problem!)

• How to notice the first signs of freezing before it takes over

• 3 simple tools you can practice to feel calm and confident during Czech conversations

This video is packed with real, practical advice—not grammar drills, not theory. Just honest help to get you speaking Czech faster and with less pressure.
