Today, I'm going to be volunteering to be your onni.

I've definitely put on some mileage in my life, so I feel like I've got some input.
7
Oh, Lord.
8
There's so much about dating.
9
Okay.
10
We're just going to come in hot.
11
What are your thoughts on dating apps?
12
To this day, I have not used a dating app.
13
It's not like, like I don't have an aversion towards it.
14
Like I think for some people it works.
15
Like my cousin found her husband on Hinge.
16
How sick is that?
17
And we love him.
18
What's up, Steve?
19
You know, I do think that your soulmate could potentially be on there.
20
But I prefer meeting people the good old fashioned way in real life.
21
Either like their mutual friends or maybe we're at a party or like out and about somewhere.
22
but preferably through mutual friends because that way there's already a referral.
23
Like it's not just a random.
24
Does anyone else not wash their face with soap in the morning?
25
It's already clean.
26
I'm just removing the creams off my face.
27
I also don't really enjoy the process of just like thumbing through men's dating profiles and examining like photographs of men.
28
It's very strange.
29
I think this might be a hot take, but I think most men do not photograph well.
30
And if you do, that means you're part of this category where you're just so unbelievably attractive that every photo looks great
31
Or it means you've spent some time and practice taking good photos
32
And for some reason I just find that Just emasculating?
33
I know, it's unfair I realize that I'm the problem because this is just what online dating is like
34
It's part of the system
35
So I would rather just remove myself from that process and meet people out in the field
36
Because I think like once I meet someone in real life,
37
then they're like digital persona I I don't really care because I know the person in real life like biologically
38
Have you ever been part of the hookup culture?
39
Every once in a blue moon, there's like a part of me that thinks you know what that could be a little interesting
40
But if I am so for real with myself, I know that that would be a nightmare.
41
Like a one night stand, God, the anxiety I would feel after, it's just not worth it.
42
At this point in my life, it's just not for me.
43
It just can't.
44
There's just too much on the line.
45
But I really have nothing against people who are able to get their physical needs met without the emotional side.
46
But yeah, just something that I never was able to do
47
Like I'm very quick to have a conversation with you
48
And we could talk about everything
49
But when you're crossing that physical line
50
Man, there's, it's like a maze
51
It's like a corn maze with levels
52
When do you know your relationship is not fixable
53
And you have to end it?
54
This question is heavy
55
Because everyone's end point is different
56
But there's like a few telltale signs
57
The main one is if you find yourself mutating into a version of yourself that you don't like.
58
Every person that you interact with, they activate a different part of you.
59
And if your partner is making you more irritable and cranky, if life feels heavier and more impossible when they're with you,
60
like the writing's kind of on the walls.
61
I feel like this could be a result of just layers of resentment piled on top of each other
62
and I think it's fixable as long as both parties are willing to roll up the sleeves
63
and do the work but even
64
if one person doesn't want to participate
65
then the relationship is
66
toast all right
67
makeup is done this question's hilarious someone asked help.
68
My boyfriend's mom literally has everything.
69
I know Christmas is months away, but as a fellow Virgo, I must impress.
70
First of all, I feel this so hard, but when in doubt, I always unwrap the holidays with the Google Holiday 100.
71

Shout out to Google Shopping for helping me discover the top gifts of the year
92
and to Warby Parker for the perfect sunglasses.
93
Now let's get back to more of your questions.
94
All right, let's make a quick little matcha.
95
There is something kind of funky I do with my matcha.
96
I add this grain wash supplement.
97
It's basically got, it's like a nootropic.
98
There's a bunch of mushrooms that are supposed to enhance like cognitive performance.
99
Does it work?
100
I'd like to think so.
101
It basically makes my matcha more chocolatey.
102
If I just add a pack of this, Ooh, some iced milk.
103
So this is a drink that I have every day.
104
I stopped drinking coffee at home, maybe I wanna say like for like two months.
105
It's only because I started to get a bunch of acid reflux.
106
This is why I decided to choose matcha.
107
It tastes like chocolate milk.
108
That's a little bit more earthy.
109
How to get over guys who give you mixed signals.
110
I cannot stand mixed signals.
111
As someone who has a lot of anxiety, I like certainty.
112
All I'll say is if someone genuinely likes you, it will be clear.
113
It will be abundantly clear that they like you.
114
When you text them, they respond back at a reasonable hour.
115
If you wanna make plans with them, they give you dates.
116
In fact, they wanna make plans with you.
117
There's not all this mumbo jumbo gray zone area when someone likes you.
118
So if you're interacting with someone who's giving you mixed signals,
119
chances are they are not like willing to double down on you or maybe they're weighing out other options.
120
Either way, they're not sure about how they feel about you.
121
So if I had to give you like a time limit, I'd say four weeks.
122
That's just shy of a month of your life.
123
It's long enough to give them a chance to get their together to see if they are vibing with you or not.
124
But you're not wasting too much time where you're wasting your life.
125
Also, the people that give you mixed signals tend to stick out in your mind more
126
because they're doing this thing called Intermittent positive reinforcement.
127
Basically your brain gets addicted to how unpredictable it all is It's like when you're playing the slot machines
128
You just keep hitting the slots and maybe you'll get some change back
129
The same concept goes to someone that gives you mixed signals like you spend
130
most of your time I'm overthinking every little thing and wondering like, does this person even like me?
131
And then when you finally get that text back or they finally give you like a little tiny spurt of attention,
132
it's like a little bit of a dopamine rise that just keeps you coming for more.
133
But for me, I am quit to cut my losses when someone's giving me mixed signals.
134
Like if you wanna be with me, you gotta be 10 toes down.
135
Like I don't wanna pinky toe up, they all have to be down.
136
And that's what I want for you.
137
I am currently going through a divorce.
138
Any tips on how to cope and emerge stronger?
139
I think it's fair to say that divorce sucks for everyone.
140
It's like a universal experience that is terrible for everyone involved.
141
Like even if you don't hate your ex, it still sucks.
142
Keeps me going is knowing that there's the finish line
143
and the like the feelings of like grief and the feelings of being overwhelmed,
144
they come in waves and so you just have to let it pass.
145
How did you know you wanted to be a mom?
146
I feel like there was no point in my life where I was like, all right, I'm ready to be a mom now.
147
Like, let's try for a baby.
148
The choice was sprung up on me.
149
It was 2020, my period was late, peed on a stick, and then I found out I was pregnant.
150
I was freaked out, shocked.
151
In the end, I decided to become a mom
152
because I felt like I would have more regrets if I didn't go along with the pregnancy.
153
And thank God I did.
154
I'll be the first to say that children are not for everyone.
155
Like it is, it is challenging.
156
But having my son has been truly the most transformative thing that has ever happened to me.
157
If life were Sims, when my son arrived, it's like the expansion pack came.
158
I was already like a pretty emotional person, but being a parent made everything like 10 times more intense and richer.
159
It's like everything became very visceral, like the sorrow and the anxiety and the sadness you feel being a parent.
160
It feels like a tidal wave is just flattening you.
161
But when you are happy, it feels like...
162
you're just soaring off a mountain.
163
And it's just, it's transcendent.
164
It's so hard to put in words.
165
So it's just like for every part that is hard, there is something that is equally as rewarding.
166
So it's just a matter of like, do you want your life to be more intense?
167
Like, do you want to feel alive?
168
Have a kid.
169
Each year of motherhood feels like I'm like part of this insane workout regime.
170
Like every day I am like challenged, I'm sore, but like I see my muscles growing
171
and that's just what parenthood does for you in like the self -development sense.
172
It's just a rollercoaster.
173
So if you're looking to go on a ride
174
and you could find a partner that is willing to do it with you, I'd say strap in.
175
How is it really co -parenting with your ex?
176
Co -parenting has definitely been a learning curve because this is our first time doing this.
177
It's also our first time being parents.
178
So it's all our firsts colliding, but truthfully, I'm really proud of the way me
179
and ben have handled all of this like even though we're
180
not romantically together like we will always be a family period like i actually have trouble calling him my ex
181
i never refer to him as my ex i always call him like lenin's dad
182
or the father of my child i know that title sounds really serious
183
and formal but it's because it is like the like the weight is warranted in
184
that title like this man is the father of my child
185
because when you have a baby with someone that person becomes your relative
186
so I think there's always going to be like a foundation
187
of mutual respect his well -being is important my well -being is important
188
because if we're not good then our son's not good
189
so I think like co -parenting is really it's all about communication and adjusting when needed.
190
And so the biggest game changer that has happened is us doing this monthly co -parenting meeting.
191
This is where we talk all things about our son.
192
There are updates, there's school stuff, there's scheduling, there's his interest, there's behavior that we notice that's great and not so great.
193
And so this is where we can kind of tweak and adjust things.
194
These meetings have been so helpful because it creates cohesion between both households.
195
We fill out this template on Notion and it's just incredible.
196
Like honestly, gotta give me and Ben a pat on our backs.
197
Like even if you're not co -parenting, this template could help.
198
How do you maintain a sense of youthfulness even when life forces you to adult really hard?
199
Hmm.
200
The key to always feeling young is to be able to be excited about the little things.
201
Like when I notice my son and like other kids, they're just so stoked on anything and everything.
202
Like it could be like the fact like we're getting gelato
203
or like we're at a park and he notices his school friend.
204
He's like, like he loses his mind.
205
And I think it's that pure enthusiasm that keeps them so young.
206
And I feel like that's something that a lot of adults tend to lose.
207
I feel like some grownups don't give themselves permission to be happy unless it's like a big moment.
208
You can't be happy unless you're on vacation or if you got a promotion or you got engaged.
209
And these milestones are moments to be celebrated, but they're not sustainable.
210
You're like, you're not gonna be doing this type of stuff every day.
211
So I think it's about letting yourself get excited for the little things, like your wacky matcha chocolate drink.
212
Like I am genuinely thrilled to drink this every day.
213
Fresh laundry, an organized drawer, phone call with a friend.
214
I don't know.
215
It's just like these small little things are the ones that are gonna keep you afloat in this sea of dread
216
It's tiny things like the daily delights that are gonna like keep you hovering from depression
217
All right, well, I think i'm gonna end it here.
218
Thank you for spending the morning with me I'm gonna go pick up my son
219
and i'll see you guys in the next one.
220
Bye
221
I'm going to go ahead and put it in the middle of the bag.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
