Happy Monday! Today's episode is a quick reminder that sometimes, adding meaning doesn't keep you hooked, it just adds pressure.

HOW EXCITING IS THAT!?

And if you're not signed up yet to the FREE two-week Be Your Own Best Teacher taster bonanza, there's still time! It started on Monday 11th, but it's still going all the way til September 22nd and there's still space for you! We'll be starting off the academic year with workshops, coworking, journaling and accountability calls. Send me an email at [email protected] or DM me at @teawithemily and I'll send you the full details and the event schedule. You can join as much or as little as you like, it'll be very relaxed, there's no pressure to join the full programme afterwards, and I can't wait to see you there!

Join your host, Emily Richardson, every weekday for a short and snappy dose of language courage to get you unstuck, whether you love languages or whether you really don't, but need to learn one anyway.

Emily is the tiny and colourful creator of The Language Confidence Project, formerly Tea with Me, a platform to help multi-passionate and unconventional language learners splash language into every part of their lives. She is also the author of the How to Be Me series of language journals to help you to tell the stories that really matter in your new language. Join her on Instagram at @teawithemily or visit her website at www.languageconfidenceproject.com

A huge thank you to Samuel Peter Davies for the happiest music in the world, and to Anna Bovi Diamond for using every colour in the box on the cover art.
