Episode Summary

When your language goals feel awkward or no longer fit, it might be time to reset them. In this video, I share how to recognise when you’ve outgrown your goals and how to set new ones that truly suit you. We’ll discuss the influence of others’ expectations, the freedom in changing your goals, and embracing your current reality as a sign of progress, not failure.
