English Leap Podcast.

From Speak English with Class.

Hey English learners!

Welcome back to the English Leap Podcast,

your cosy corner for easy English,

real stories, and everyday conversations.

I'm Anna.

And I'm Jake.

We're really happy you pressed play today.

Maybe you're walking, cooking, cleaning your room,

or hiding from your homework.

Yeah, I can feel that.

Maybe there's a big to-do list somewhere,

and you just slipped away to listen to a podcast instead.

Oh, totally.

And if you're going to escape,

escaping in English is the smartest way.

Your chores are waiting, but at least your English is getting stronger.

Hmm, I like that.

English first, chores later.

Okay, before we go deep,

Jake, how are you today?

Be honest.

I'm fine.

You're fine, huh?

Just fine?

Yeah, yeah, totally fine.

Completely fine.

100% fine.

Whoa, okay, your voice says fine,

but your face says, I need a nap,

a holiday, and maybe a giant pizza.

Yeah, you got me.

Honestly, I'm a bit tired,

a little stressed, but really happy to be here talking with you and our listeners.

Hmm, that sounds more real.

Not just one word.

A mix of feelings.

And what about you, Anna?

How are you doing today?

My mouth wants to say, I'm good.

Your mouth wants, I'm good.

But if I answer honestly,

I'd say, I feel a little sleepy,

a bit overwhelmed, but also calm and excited to record this episode.

Oh, that's so much clearer.

Sleepy, overwhelmed, calm, excited.

And that's what we want you to practice, too.

Not only I'm fine or I'm OK,

but something like, right now I feel tired and nervous because I have an exam.

Or I feel happy and relaxed because I'm listening to this podcast.

A feeling plus maybe a reason.

That's the magic formula.

Exactly.

One feeling, one reason.

Simple English, but very honest.

So as you listen today,

you can keep asking yourself,

how do I really feel right now?

And try to answer in a full mini sentence, not just one word.

And to help you do that,

we chose a very special theme for today.

In this episode, we're going to walk through one normal day,

from morning to night, and show you simple,

powerful English to talk about your feelings.

And in each moment of that day,

we'll slow down and put real emotions into real sentences in easy English you can copy and use.

Yeah, not just vocabulary list,

but feelings you can actually say when life is good,

messy, or somewhere in the middle.

And we won't just throw words at you.

We'll give you real sentences you can use with friends,

co-workers, family, or in your journal when you talk honestly to yourself.

Real sentences for real life.

That's the goal.

And don't worry.

Today's episode is B1 Easy English.

Yeah, that means the language is clear and simple,

but the topic is real and deep.

Perfect for daily life English conversation.

So, if you're an intermediate learner,

this is your sweet spot.

And if you're a strong beginner, oh, don't run away.

You can still stay with us.

Just relax, breathe, and catch as much as you can.

And remember, you can always pause,

go back and listen again.

Yeah, repeating is like gym for your English brain.

Not heavy weights, just little reps.

OK, before we dive into this day of feelings,

can we ask you for one tiny favor?

Yeah, just one.

If you enjoy learning English through real conversations like this,

please like this episode and subscribe to the channel.

When you do that, it helps more learners find the English Leap podcast.

And it tells the YouTube universe,

hey, this podcast is helpful.

And we'd love to hear from you in the comments.

You can write one simple sentence like,

100

I'm your name from your country,

101

and today I feel, say your feeling,

102

because, and then you add your reason.

103

It doesn't need to be perfect.

104

It just needs to be honest.

105

Yes!

106

And when you write your feeling in English,

107

you're not only practicing grammar,

108

you're taking your feeling out of your head and putting it into words.

109

That's powerful!

110

And yes, we really read your comments – on the sofa,

111

on the bus, with coffee, everywhere.

112

Sometimes your comments make us laugh.

113

Sometimes they make us go, Whoa, that was deep.

114

Oh, and before we start our little day in your feelings,

115

there's one more surprise.

116

Right, my favorite part.

117

Later in the episode, we'll do a calm little word tour,

118

like a friendly vocabulary walk.

119

On the word tour, we slow down and explain some bigger feeling words and idioms like overwhelmed,

120

on cloud nine, burned out, with super easy examples.

121

So, if some words feel big or scary right now, don't worry.

122

Yeah, just stay with us until the end,

123

and we'll open them slowly,

124

like unwrapping a present together.

125

All right, our small talk is done,

126

our hearts are warmed up.

127

So now let's step into a normal day together, morning to night.

128

And learn how to talk about how you really feel in English.

129

Because those feelings, they start the moment your day begins, right?

130

Even before you speak, they're already there.

131

Yeah, so let's start at the beginning of the day,

132

morning, that first moment when your eyes open.

133

Right, that first moment is already full of feelings.

134

Sometimes you wake up calm and peaceful,

135

and sometimes you wake up tired,

136

grumpy, and already annoyed at the alarm.

137

Calm and peaceful, or tired and grumpy.

138

The two big teams of the morning.

139

Yes, on a good morning,

140

I wake up and I feel relaxed,

141

a little fresh, maybe even a bit excited for the day.

142

It's like my mind is clear and the day is a clean page.

143

A clean page.

144

I love that.

145

On those days, you're almost over the moon for no big reason.

146

Just happy to start.

147

Exactly.

148

Not crazy, crazy happy, but light.

149

I make my coffee, I stretch,

150

and I think, okay, today feels good.

151

But of course, not every morning is like that.

152

No, not at all.

153

Some mornings I wake up and I already feel a bit down and irritated.

154

My body is heavy, my face is serious, and I'm just grumpy.

155

Yeah, that's me on bad sleep days.

156

I open my eyes and think, I'm so tired.

157

My mood is low, like a small gray cloud is sitting above my bed.

158

Not a big storm, but also not sunshine.

159

And sometimes it's not just mood.

160

Sometimes we feel physically under the weather.

161

Right.

162

Under the weather means your body isn't OK.

163

Maybe your head hurts, your throat is sore,

164

or your nose is blocked.

165

You feel weak and a bit sick.

166

So, in the morning, you might say,

167

I feel tired and a bit grumpy today.

168

Or, I'm feeling peaceful and calm this morning.

169

Or, I'm under the weather,

170

I think I'm getting a cold.

171

And there's another big one.

172

When you wake up and you're not sad or happy, you're nervous.

173

Nervous, like something important is coming.

174

Yes.

175

Before a job interview or exam or first day at work,

176

I wake up with butterflies on my stomach.

177

My stomach feels funny, not pain, just nervous energy.

178

So, nervous, excited, a bit scared,

179

all mixed together in your belly.

180

You could say, I feel nervous.

181

I have butterflies in my stomach about my presentation today.

182

And that one simple sentence in the morning,

183

today I feel because, is a great daily English habit.

184

Yes.

185

You check your inner weather report and you practice English at the same time.

186

OK, so after the morning, life gets louder.

187

Work, school, messages.

188

That's when daytime feelings show up.

189

Yes.

190

In the middle of the day,

191

many of us feel busy,

192

stressed, or just in a rush.

193

For me, when there are too many things to do,

194

I start to feel really stressed and a bit on edge.

195

On edge.

196

Like your nerves are very thin, very sensitive.

197

Exactly.

198

When I'm on edge, small things make me angry or upset.

199

A slow email, a late bus,

200

a small mistake, and I want to shout.

201

Hmm, it's like your feelings are sitting on a high wall,

202

and any little push can make them fall.

203

You can say, I've been on edge all morning,

204

there are so many deadlines.

205

Or I feel stressed and a bit irritated at work today.

206

And when this continues too long,

207

too much stress, too many tasks,

208

we slowly move to exhausted and maybe even burned out.

209

Burned out is strong.

210

That's when you're not just tired, you're totally empty.

211

Yes, burned out means your mental energy feels finished.

212

You feel exhausted, unmotivated, and heavy.

213

Like a candle that has burned all the way down.

214

No more flame.

215

I had that period once.

216

I kept saying yes to extra work, extra projects.

217

At first I felt proud and busy.

218

Later I felt overwhelmed, then burned out.

219

Overwhelmed.

220

Like there is a big wave of tasks and you are very small under it.

221

On a way.

222

You might say, I'm overwhelmed with homework this week.

223

Or, I was burned out after the exam period.

224

And sometimes it's not black or white,

225

not fully happy, not fully sad.

226

We say we have mixed feelings.

227

Yeah, like happy and sad together.

228

For example, when I moved to a new city,

229

I felt excited and hopeful,

230

but also scared and a bit lonely.

231

I had mixed feelings.

232

Or you can say, I have mixed feelings about my new job.

233

I like the money, but I miss my old team.

234

And there is another feeling word I really like.

235

Proud.

236

Proud is a good one.

237

Proud is when you feel happy about something you did.

238

Maybe your work was good or you finished a hard task.

239

You feel strong inside.

240

For instance, I'm proud I finished my project on time.

241

Or I felt proud after speaking English in the meeting.

242

But when things go wrong,

243

we can also feel disappointed or just totally fed up.

244

Fed up is one of my favorites.

245

It means you're tired of something and you don't want it anymore.

246

You might say, I'm disappointed.

247

My plan didn't work.

248

Or I'm fed up with always being late.

249

Or even I'm fed up with being scared to speak English.

250

So, in the daytime, your inner weather can move from focused and confident to stressed,

251

overwhelmed, disappointed, or fed up all in the same afternoon.

252

And every one of those feelings is a chance to make a simple English sentence about your real life.

253

Then the day starts to slow down.

254

The sun goes down, the emails stop,

255

and your evening feelings arrive.

256

Yes.

257

Evening is when the outside world gets quieter,

258

and the inside world, your thoughts, your heart, gets louder.

259

For some people, evening feels peaceful and relaxed.

260

For others, it feels lonely and sad.

261

I've had both.

262

Some nights I feel calm, cozy, and grateful.

263

I'm tired, but in a good way.

264

I drink tea, I read, I feel relaxed.

265

Calm, cozy, relaxed.

266

Like your mind is finally taking off its shoes.

267

Yes, exactly.

268

But other nights, I feel really down in the dumps.

269

Down in the dumps.

270

That's a good phrase.

271

It means you feel very low, very sad.

272

Maybe nothing huge happened, but your mood is heavy.

273

You don't want to talk.

274

You don't want to do anything.

275

You could say, I've been down in the dumps this evening.

276

I don't know why.

277

Or, I feel a bit low tonight.

278

And when something big and painful happens,

279

like a breakup, losing a job,

280

or a big fight, we often say, it broke my heart.

281

Yeah.

282

Broke my heart is when you feel deep, deep sadness.

283

Not just a normal bad day.

284

It's when you feel hurt inside your chest.

285

For example, it broke my heart when my friends stopped talking to me.

286

Or it almost broke my heart to hear my parents fight.

287

And evening is also when lonely feelings visit.

288

Lonely.

289

Not just alone in a room,

290

but alone in your feelings.

291

You might say, I feel lonely tonight.

292

Or even in a full house, I sometimes feel lonely.

293

But evening can also bring small, quiet happiness.

294

little wins that put us on cloud nine for a moment.

295

On cloud nine means extremely happy like you're floating.

296

Maybe you spoke English with someone and it went well.

297

You can say, I was on cloud nine after that conversation.

298

Or, I felt really proud and almost on cloud nine when my teacher praised my work.

299

So, in the evening, you might feel relaxed,

300

grateful, down in the dumps,

301

lonely, heartbroken, proud, or even on cloud nine.

302

All of that is normal.

303

Hmm.

304

Anna, I feel like we covered a lot today.

305

Yeah, we really did.

306

Morning feelings, daytime stress, quiet evenings.

307

It was a full emotional day.

308

And maybe for our listeners,

309

it was also a lot of new English.

310

True.

311

So instead of a big,

312

heavy lesson at the end,

313

maybe we just slow down and do a tiny, quiet recap.

314

I like that.

315

A soft word tour.

316

Not fast, not long, just a few feelings from today, like little lights.

317

So if you're walking or cooking or just lying on your bed, you can relax.

318

You don't have to repeat everything.

319

Just listen and notice the words you remember.

320

In the morning, we talked about how you might feel when the day starts.

321

Yeah, sometimes you wake up tired or even a bit grumpy.

322

Or maybe you feel peaceful and calm,

323

like the world is still quiet.

324

And we also use that idiom under the weather,

325

when your body doesn't feel so good.

326

You can say, Today I feel tired.

327

Or, I feel a bit under the weather this morning.

328

You don't need a long speech.

329

One small honest sentence is enough.

330

Then, during the day, life gets busy.

331

Yeah.

332

Work, school, family, messages.

333

And suddenly you feel stressed or overwhelmed.

334

is when there's too much,

335

too many tasks, too many problems, too many thoughts.

336

We also used on edge,

337

when you feel very sensitive,

338

like a little thing can annoy you.

339

But daytime isn't only heavy.

340

You can also feel proud or confident when you do something well.

341

You might say, I'm a bit overwhelmed with work today.

342

Or, I feel proud of myself.

343

I finished my project.

344

Or, I've been on edge all day.

345

I need a break.

346

These sentences are like small windows.

347

They let other people see what's really happening inside you.

348

And in the evening, things usually get quieter outside.

349

But inside, your feelings can still be loud.

350

Yeah, you might feel relaxed after a long day.

351

Or lonely.

352

Or a little down in the dumps.

353

Down in the dumps means really low,

354

really sad, like your mood is sitting at the bottom.

355

And then sometimes you're on cloud nine,

356

super happy, maybe after a good call with a friend,

357

or a nice message, or a small success.

358

And we use that strong phrase,

359

it broke my heart, for those moments that hurt deeply.

360

In the evening, you might say, I feel relaxed now.

361

Or, I've been down in the dumps tonight.

362

Or, I was on cloud nine after my English conversation.

363

Or, it almost broke my heart when that happened.

364

You don't have to say all of these.

365

Just choose the ones that feel true for you.

366

Yeah, and remember, you don't need to memorize 20 new words today.

367

No, even two or three words you remember and use, that's already progress.

368

And maybe you can choose one feeling word,

369

or one idiom, and make a sentence about your real life.

370

You can follow this simple frame in your head.

371

Right now, I feel, say your feeling,

372

because, and then you add your reason.

373

You can say it quietly to yourself.

374

Or if you want to be brave,

375

you can write it in the comments.

376

When you do that, you're not just learning English, you're also learning yourself.

377

And we really love to read your words.

378

It helps us feel less alone,

379

too, like we're all sitting in one big,

380

cozy room, sharing our feelings in easy English.

381

Yeah, a big international feelings club.

382

And you listening right now are part of that club.

383

Your feelings matter.

384

Your words matter.

385

And step by step, your English will grow with them.

386

Thank you for spending this time with us.

387

This is Anna.

388

And this is Jake.

389

And you've been listening to the English Leap Podcast.

390

Stay kind to yourself.

391

And keep going, one small,

392

gentle step at a time.

393

Bye!

394

Your progress doesn't end here.
