Hello, everyone, and welcome back to English Cozy Chat,

a slow English podcast which helps you to learn English in a fun and natural way.

I'm Maria, and today I am extra happy, and I wanted to tell you all why.

But before we get started, as always, of course I have to have my cozy drink.

I hope you guys have one too.

But today, mine is just a simple coffee.

And I have been using this insulated cup recently,

because sometimes when I use a regular coffee mug,

my coffee gets cold quickly and I like my coffee really really hot

so I'm in a phase where I'm drinking out of this cup it's not quite as cozy

because there's something really cozy about a nice coffee cup,

but I like how this is very functional and keeps my coffee very hot. So cheers.

All right, so I'll start with a little story.

On Saturday night, I went to a fun dance performance show with a friend of mine

and we went to get dinner afterwards.

And when I was at dinner, I realized that I did not have my wallet.

My wallet that has my ID,

my credit card, my money, everything, all of my identification,

things that I need are in that wallet.

And I realized I didn't have it.

So on Sunday, I spent the whole day looking for my wallet,

thinking about my wallet

and where it could be the thought of losing your wallet is

so frustrating because your wallet has everything you need in it

and even though I didn't have much money in there the part that frustrates me more is having to cancel my cards

try to get a new id card

which here in spain can take a long time i also had my united states driver's license

and so all of this i thought oh gosh this is going to take so much time and be very annoying.

And just, it made me mad at myself that I lost my wallet.

So I then began to retrace my steps.

And when you retrace your steps,

that means you think back or physically go back to the places you were before

and in my case to try to find something

but to retrace your steps is to go back to where you were before maybe

you're just kind of thinking about it

or you're actually going back to the places where you were before

so in my mind I was retracing my steps thinking where was the last time I had my wallet

and I realized that on Friday I went to the post office to pick up a package

and I showed my ID and then I put it back in my purse

and that was the last time that I had seen it.

But after the post office, I also went to a few other places.

But now that I can pay with my phone, I don't take out my wallet so often.

I usually pay with my phone.

And for that reason, my wallet usually stays in my bag.

So yesterday I was...

looking everywhere in the house

because I had a feeling had a feeling inside I thought it's at my house I

and I am the type of person to leave things in

random places like some people are very good about always putting things in a certain place

and knowing where everything is and I'm not that kind of person.

I'm like leaving something over here and I leave something over there.

And as much as I want to not be like that, I am.

And I try to get better.

I do.

I try.

But the truth is, I tend to do that quite often.

I just will leave my phone in a really random place or just things like that.

So yesterday I was so worried.

I was thinking about this a million times.

And I was also mad at myself.

Like, why did you leave your wallet somewhere?

Why can't you just keep up with your things?

And I was just frustrated with myself.

And so this morning, I went back to the post office and to the other places where I went on Friday.

And I asked, have you found a wallet?

Have you found a wallet?

And I thought, I don't think anyone would steal it because I live in a pretty safe place, I think.

And there was no money in there.

And I had checked my credit card transactions online.

No one had used it.

And no one had seen the wallet.

So I went to the police office and I filed a police report.

That's what you are supposed to do if you lose something valuable.

And here, if you need to order a new ID card,

you have to have a police report to say that something has been lost or stolen.

So I spent 30 minutes or 45 minutes at the police office talking about my wallet

and and they gave me an official report.

And then I came home.

And when I came home, I told my husband, I cannot find it.

It's nowhere in town.

And I filed a police report.

And he said, okay, like, where did you put your bag when you came in?

What did you do?

And he asking me some questions.

And he also did this yesterday, but he asked me more questions today.

And then I just went in my closet and I reached in a coat pocket and pulled out my wallet.

It was in one of my coat pockets.

And I don't know why I had it in that coat pocket.

I don't know.

I was wearing that coat when I went to pick up my kids, but I don't know why I had my wallet in my pocket.

See, that's me.

I put things in weird places for no reason.

Anyway, I pulled it all out and I was like, I have it.

And it was just the best feeling.

And I'm still feeling really happy about this.

And I found it interesting because before finding my wallet, I thought, I just didn't feel good.

And I was just, I felt blah.

I felt like I had no energy.

I was like tired.

100

I was annoyed.

101

And the second I found my wallet, I was like, wow, and everything.

102

And I'm happy about everything. And it's just funny.

103

I find it funny how certain things can just completely change your energy for the day.

104

If you get good news of something,

105

if something good happens, it can just all of a sudden you have energy.

106

You feel full of life.

107

You feel good, right?

108

Also the same if something bad happens.

109

All of a sudden, you're tired, you're upset, you're mad.

110

And I'm actually reading a book right now called The Untethered Soul.

111

And it talks about this.

112

It talks about how you can

113

tap into this happy energy and always have it available

114

and you can have it even if something great doesn't particularly happen

115

but you have this energy inside

116

and you just need to know how to get to it how to access it and just to give you this happiness.

117

So I definitely don't really know how to do that yet.

118

But this situation today about how one moment completely made me so happy and feel great,

119

feel great about the day.

120

I was like, today's a great day.

121

It's going to be a great week.

122

You know, all of a sudden I'm just happy, right?

123

And it made me think about this book.

124

I thought, hey, that would be very good to be able to always access that happiness,

125

that energy, and to just have that, to have that give you life, right?

126

So that's my happiness story.

127

And I guess there are some other things that I am pretty excited about.

128

This past weekend, I made panayets.

129

Panayets are a typical Catalan sweet.

130

It's a dessert that they have during the fall.

131

And it is a tradition here in Catalonia to make and to eat panellets.

132

They are small and round and they are really fun to make.

133

You have a dough and you roll it into balls.

134

And then you put different toppings on them

135

and I made these this weekend with my kids

136

and it was really fun making these

137

and I also just feel good about making them

138

because since I live in Spain and I don't live in the United States where I'm from.

139

I think it's important to try to incorporate the culture

140

and to try to do things that local people here do

141

because I think it helps you to understand the culture more and the people.

142

And, you know, making these panayets was really fun.

143

Plus, they're really delicious, really good.

144

And just making them kind of helps me to understand people here more like,

145

wow, these are really fun to make, you know, you make all the balls, put the toppings, they're pretty, they're delicious.

146

And they're pretty easy.

147

It's I also feel good my girls who, you know, they're also not like locals here, can go to school and say,

148

hey, I made panayets at home.

149

I want them to also be doing everything that their local friends do.

150

And it makes me feel good.

151

So I guess that's another thing that I'm happy about.

152

And trust me, I don't always feel happy like this.

153

You know, there are many days.

154

In fact, the past two weeks, I have felt very low energy.

155

I have been quite sick, not feeling well.

156

And during these past two weeks that I've been feeling quite sick,

157

I've been still working so hard to get this five day shadowing challenge together been working so hard on it.

158

It's really important for me that this shadowing challenge comes out good.

159

Five days of practicing your speaking.

160

And I am really doing my best to make it the best possible.

161

And I hope you guys really enjoy that.

162

Actually, to be honest, the past couple of episodes were a little bit hard for me to film

163

because I was not feeling great.

164

But I filmed them anyway.

165

But, yeah, I guess also it's another thing to think about like with

166

if you don't ever feel down

167

or not good then you can't really feel really good you have to have one to have the other right

168

so I'm just thankful that I'm in at least one day where I'm feeling very good.

169

And I really hope that you guys also have a good positive day and a good week.

170

And I hope this video or this podcast has just helped you to at least think about having a positive energy.

171

And I really hope that something good happens to you all today.

172

So thank you all so much for watching and we will see you in the next episode.

173

Bye!

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
