The Comparison Trap is when we get stuck comparing our lives to other people and feeling worse as a result.

It's a common problem in language learning, and this is something that I often experience too since I was inspired to make this episode after a moment of comparison made me feel worse.

We often compare ourselves to others in many ways, such as income, appearance, skills, and on social media.

In this episode, I cover all of these topics while sharing some useful comparative grammar structures to improve your spoken English.

Curiosity is an important thing to practice to be better English language learners and enjoy your life more.

When we start learning a language, we’re naturally very open and curious to learning new things. It can be an amazing feeling when you’re really into something and you’re looking up every little detail.

However, along the way, we naturally get more complacent and we begin to take things for granted. This curiosity fades into daily habits and routines.

Curiosity makes language learning so much more enjoyable more also helps you progress faster. That’s the idea behind today’s episode.

This is a really fun episode all about the recent progress of AI (Artificial Intelligence) - specifically in the area of audio and music.

I share a few songs that were made by AI about this podcast that I think will blow your mind. I had a lot of fun with it.

I also share my thoughts on the future changes that AI will bring to the world, some jobs that will be lost and others that will be safe from AI and automation, and much more.

In today's episode, we're exploring the topics of optimism, pessimism, and realism. These are different attitudes towards life and the future and can have a massive impact on your happiness and mental health.

I go over the definitions and words, discuss some possible benefits of being pessimistic, and give many tips on how and why you can be more optimistic in life.

A really fun episode filled with English vocabulary, and hopefully quite motivational too.

Paola from the Talaera Talks podcast and I are doing a cross-post episode today. You can also find this episode and many more over on their podcast.

The topic is all about jobs, careers, and business English expression. We start by asking questions to each other, using our own work experience to give examples of when to use these expressions.

We then talk about advice on how to get a job when English isn't your first language, and a bit on work-life balance.

I recently went back to my home country - the UK - for the first time in a quite a while and was fascinated by how the UK appeared to me after being away for a while.

There was a lot that I found strange, unusual, and interesting that I wasn't really aware of while I was still living in England.

In this episode, I discuss some of my feelings and culture shock experiences, and perhaps some of you can relate to these experiences when you visit the UK for the first time.
