Transcriber: Marina Aalten Reviewer: Tanya Cushman It was 2:45 PM on a rainy Friday in Los Angeles.
2
My dad was just brewing a cup of coffee in the kitchen when he answered a call from an unknown number.
3
He froze as he heard a woman violently crying and screaming on the other side of the line.
4
Next, a strong masculine voice came on.
5
And he said to my dad, "We have your daughter, and if you don't listen to every single word that we say, we're going to kill her." My dad paused, he lost his breath for a moment, and he managed to ask, "Can I talk to her?" "Do you want us to break her arm?" They taunted him.
6
Now, you have to understand I am one of two daughters.
7
And sadly, just six months before this phone call came in, we took my big sister off of life support.
8
I'll never forget the day that she died.
9
My dad looked at me with this grief, with this heartbreak, bigger than the entire sky, and he kept repeating to me, saying, "Now I only have one daughter left." So, as anyone would when they're in fear, he gave his power away, and he desperately said to the kidnappers, "This is my only daughter; I'll do whatever you want." "Are you alone?" the kidnappers asked him.
10
And in that moment, he locked eyes with my mom across the kitchen, pressed his fingers to his lips, silently begging her to remain quiet.
11
And he said to them, "Yep, I'm alone," as he scribbled on a napkin.
12
He wrote, "Go outside, quiet, call 911. Ashley's been kidnapped" My sweet mom, she hurried outside with her hands trembling, and she managed to call 911.
13
Meanwhile, my dad was being commanded by the kidnappers.
14
"Get in your car," they said to him.
15
"You're going to the bank, you're keeping us on the phone, and you're going to pay a ransom.
16
And if you don't cooperate, we'll be sending you her body parts in the mail." My mom let the police know to meet her at the bank, and she tiptoed in the car so that they wouldn't hear her.
17
The conversation in the car to the bank was all over the place.
18
In one minute, they were asking my dad how his day was.
19
In the next minute, they were threatening to rape me.
20
They pulled up at the bank, and my mom went to meet the police officer, and meanwhile, my dad stiffly walked into the bank with his phone on in his pocket as promised so that the kidnapper could hear him wiring the funds.
21
Meanwhile, as all of this was unfolding, I was actually sitting in my quaint, little Beverly Hills office, conducting a podcast interview.
22
I remember throughout the conversation with my guest kind of seeing my phone light up across my desk and not thinking much of it.
23
No, it wasn't until my guest left that I saw a slew of missed calls.
24
And most importantly, I saw one text message that I'll never forget.
25
It said, "This is the police.
26
I'm with your family. Please call." Now, in my early 20s, I worked in counter-terrorism at the Pentagon, in Washington, D.C., so believe me when I tell you that my imagination of what could go wrong is so colorful.
27
But in that moment - I've never gotten a message like that, thinking that maybe whatever was on the other side of that text message was going to ruin my life.
28
So I sat there, and I mustered the courage to finally call.
29
He said, "This is Officer Johnson. Is this Ashley?" "Yes" He said, "Please confirm your name." I said, "This is Ashley Michelle Stahl. Is my family okay?" Next thing I knew, I heard commotion.
30
He yelled across the bank to my dad, "Mister Stahl, hang up the phone!
31
She's on the line; it's a scam!" I heard a ton of commotion, and then my dad grabbed the phone from the police officer.
32
And he came onto the phone with me with a voice sounding more fragile than I've ever heard him before.
33
And all he said to me was "Is it you?" I said, "Yeah, it's me." And for the first time ever, I heard my dad break down and sob.
34
He didn't sob like that when I was a little girl.
35
I remember one of his businesses went under, and our family went through an incredibly hard time, and he didn't sob like that.
36
When I was in middle school, I came home one day, and he told me he had stage III cancer.
37
And he didn't sob like that the day my big sister passed away.
38
Never. He kept asking me if it was me, as in I felt like I had to prove that it was, so I said, "Yeah, Dad, it's me.
39
We dressed up as hotdogs together for Halloween.
40
You love cheesecake.
41
I just signed my book deal.
42
It's me, Dad." And he met me with one question.
43
He said, "Can you please just come home?" So I was on my way.
44
I remember walking in the front door of my parents' house, my dad rushed over to me, and we hugged heart to heart, and I felt his pain in a way that I've never felt on another person.
45
It was in that moment that I also realized that parents aren't superhumans, that they're just people - like you, like me - doing the best that they can.
46
He walked me through the phone call from start to finish, and I couldn't believe that for two entire hours he was living one reality while I was living a completely separate one.
47
But knowing that the truth always leaves clues, I couldn't help but wonder, how did my supersmart dad get so duped?
48
And did the crying woman even sound like me?
49
And how did he manage to give his power away so quickly to a bunch of strangers?
50
So, eventually, I managed to ask him, "Did you ever doubt that this was real?" And he gave an answer that we all tend to give when life corners us and we buy into fear.
51
He said to me, "I didn't think that there was another option." Thinking about that, he went on, about how we get so scared, and how somebody was screaming on the line, and you don't have time to think about that.
52
And that totally made sense to me.
53
But throughout the rest of the night, I sat there in so much sadness and some anger, looking at how traumatized - I'd never seen my 75-year old dad so traumatized - wondering how could somebody do this to another person?
54
And it was in that moment that something completely unexpected washed over me.
55
And it was compassion.
56
Not just for my dad, but for the fake kidnappers.
57
I wondered, why would somebody choose a career path of scaring people like that and robbing them of their life savings?
58
The only answer I could come up with was maybe they didn't think they had a better option, or, you know, maybe this is what their parents taught them, just like my parents taught me what was possible for me in my career, or maybe they don't have the awareness that there's another way.
59
Put simply, maybe this was the best that they thought they could do to get by, survive, and meet their needs in the world, and pay their bills.
60
Often, we kidnap ourselves from the lives that we actually want because we think a different path is going to help us survive, get by, pay our bills, or meet our needs in the world.
61
I pulled out my journal, and I wrote at the top of it, "I'm my own kidnapper." I listed all of the ways over the years that I silenced the truth of what I actually want, all of the times that I took myself captive on soul-crushing journeys that I didn't even want to be on.
62
I thought about how so many of us choose majors in college or career paths that we don't even want to be on, because we think it will help us survive, get by, or meet our needs in the world.
63
But it doesn't have to be that way.
64
I encourage you to ask yourself, "Where am I kidnapping myself from the life that I really want?" "How am I giving away my power, getting into fear, just to meet my needs in the world?" When we go into fear, we give away our power and we disconnect from who we really are and what we really want.
65
But as a career coach, I've learned that there are three key steps that you can take right now to make what I love to call a "you-turn," which is the decision to get out of fear and come home to yourself.
66
So the first step is to do a self audit.
67
Really ask yourself, "Where am I holding myself captive?" This means being honest with yourself about where you are, what's working for you, and what isn't.
68
If you think about it, we come into the world, our natural state is with so much love, creativity - think about kids; they have inspiration - and yet over time we're taught to fear.
69
And fear is a necessary inner alarm system that we all need to survive in the physical world.
70
Think about it.
71
We learn to look both ways before we cross the street.
72
We learn not to touch the stove when it's hot.
73
We learn not to talk to strangers.
74
But over time, we get hurt.
75
Life throws us curveballs.
76
We learn to stop taking risks and start being afraid.
77
We get afraid to put ourselves out there.
78
We start calling ourselves "practical" or "realistic" for making choices that seem "responsible" when really we're just so scared of criticism.
79
And if we're being really honest with ourselves, people who call themselves realists are often just dreamers who got their hearts broken somewhere along the way.
80
So how do you make a you-turn?
81
You do a self audit.
82
You come home to yourself.
83
And that's why one of my favorite questions to ask people is "What do you know that you wish you didn't know?" What do you know that you wish you didn't know?
84
Maybe some of you know that you're hiding from the truth.
85
Deep down, you know you're hiding from the truth.
86
Maybe you're hiding from the fact that you hate your job, but you won't admit it because you're scared and you don't know where to go next.
87
Or maybe you're hiding from the fact that you married the wrong person, but you're scared to admit it because it's going to unravel your life to get a divorce.
88
Or maybe you know that something is going on with your health, but you're scared to go to the doctor because you don't want to hear the diagnosis.
89
Whatever it is, tap into what's deeply true for you, seeing things as they are - not worse than they are, not better than they are, but as they actually are.
90
In order to figure out what you really want, you need to see the truth of where you are.
91
And maybe right now you feel pain bubbling up inside of you as you look at what's true for you.
92
But know this: pain is often a trampoline that will launch us into our next stage of life if we're willing to let it.
93
The second step is to follow your freedom.
94
Follow your freedom.
95
This means paying attention to what feels good to you so that you can finally set yourself free.
96
So you're probably wondering right now, "Okay, Ashley, how do I feel what feels good?" Very fair question.
97
We live in a world right now of Internet trolls and tweets and text messages, and the data is officially in: we are so connected that we're somehow, according to research, more disconnected than ever.
98
In fact, in the United States alone, 71% of the workforce is on the job hunt.
99
And I believe, as a career expert, that that is because people don't like where they are.
100
More than 70% of the United States is taking prescription drugs, and more than half of marriages are ending in divorce.
101
We've heard it all before.
102
"Do what you love, and the money will follow." Or my least favourite piece of advice, "Follow your passion." These short expressions are often a fast track to nowhere.
103
But when you learn to really follow what feels good to you, your purpose is often either right in front of you or on the periphery of that.
104
So maybe you're wondering, "Well, how do I really connect to my body?
105
How do I feel what feels good?" You're still being with this question.
106
And that totally makes sense to me.
107
Right now, scientists are calling our gut "our second brain," and you've probably heard the research that suggests that there's more than 200 million neurons in our gut, which is equivalent to the size of a cat or dog's brain.
108
So what does that mean to you?
109
That means if in your nervous system you're feeling some sort of anxiety or disconnect, some nerves, something feels off, to trust it because your body is a messenger and it is constantly giving you feedback.
110
In my early 20s, when I moved to Washington, D.C., to work in counter-terrorism, I didn't know if that was going to be my ultimate career path.
111
But something about it felt good to me.
112
And guess what happened on the periphery?
113
I succeeded in my career.
114
I learned how to master the job hunt.
115
And I became a career expert.
116
And guess what happened on the periphery of that?
117
I became a published author, my biggest dream.
118
In a world of climbing the corporate ladder, five-year plans, and unnecessary degrees, we are all striving for something that is so unrealistic.
119
And it's perfection.
120
But who you are at age 25 isn't going to be who you are at age 30, and it certainly isn't going to be who you are at age 40.
121
And that's why I invite you to see your career as an experiment that really meets you where you are - a vehicle for your own self-expression.
122
You can start with writing down all of your ideas and checking in with your body, seeing how they feel to you.
123
Do you feel joy? Or do you feel fear?
124
Do you feel expansion? Or do you feel contraction?
125
Do you feel liberation? Or do you feel suffocation?
126
That's why one of my favourite tools to recommend people that they use is called a "joy journal." When you're feeling disconnected, for 30 days, take the time to write down every single moment - that moment that lit you up the most - every single day.
127
And I don't care if it's the woman you talk to in the bathroom line at the club or the meeting you led at work.
128
Pay attention.
129
And at the end of the 30 days, take note of if there's any patterns in your inspiration.
130
Really ask yourself, "What skill set am I using when I'm the most inspired?" Because when you're in your inspiration, you're not being run or kidnapped by your fear.
131
And the third step is to engage.
132
So needless to say, your cute little joy journal isn't going to get you that love interest that you've been pining over or that dream job that you really want.
133
Action will.
134
But perfectionism is the enemy of action.
135
And often, I found that perfectionism is a mask that we all wear when we're afraid of failure.
136
So ask yourself, "Am I a perfectionist?" Because here's the truth of the matter.
137
Clarity comes from engagement; it does not come from thought.
138
Limbo is powerless.
139
So if you want to be powerful, look at your list, pick something that feels good.
140
Show up, see what feedback the universe gives you, make a commitment, and know that you can course-correct along the way.
141
You know, looking back and thinking about the fake kidnapping incident, I think a lot about my dad and all of the trauma that he experienced that day, nearly wiring his entire life savings to some strangers on the phone.
142
I think about how the truth always really does leave clues.
143
How he thought to ask if it was me or if he could talk to me because early on in the kidnapper conversation, he wanted to talk to me for proof.
144
Some part of him knew.
145
I think about how he gave away his power in desperation and in fear, as we all do.
146
And most of all, I thought about my compassion for the kidnappers, and all of the lessons that I really learned.
147
We all have the opportunity to free ourselves.
148
And it starts with really taking a look at who you are.
149
Doing a self audit.
150
Following what feels good.
151
And taking action.
152
No matter where you are in your life right now, you have the opportunity to make a you-turn.
153
That means connecting to the truth.
154
Connecting to your body.
155
Connecting to your joy.
156
Most of all, that means making your you-turn.
157
Thank you. (Applause)

이번 수업에 대하여
이번 레슨에서는 영어 회화 연습을 통해 감정이 풍부한 상황에서의 대화 방식을 연습할 것입니다. 특히, 아슈리 스탈의 TEDx 강연에서 보여지는 긴장감과 감정 표현을 익히며, 실제 상황에서의 영어 커뮤니케이션 능력을 향상시키고자 합니다. 이를 통해 영어 발음 교정과 더불어 감정이 담긴 대화의 맥락을 이해하게 될 것입니다.
주요 어휘 및 구문
- crying - 울다
- hostage - 인질
- ransom - 몸값
- scam - 사기
- empathy - 공감
- fear - 두려움
- threaten - 위협하다
- help - 도움
연습 팁
이 비디오 속 대화는 높은 긴장감과 감정적 요소가 포함되어 있어 shadow speech 연습에 적합합니다. 아슈리 스탈의 말투는 매우 감정적이고 강렬하므로 처음에는 천천히 따라 읽으며 감정이 잘 전달될 수 있도록 하세요. 반복해서 연습하면서 자신의 발음을 체크하고, shadowspeaks 기법을 통해 자연스럽게 발음과 억양을 개선해 나가세요.
발음 연습 시, 주요 문장을 여러 번 읊조리면서 감정과 억양에도 집중하세요. 예를 들어, "Is it you?"와 같은 감정이 높은 대사를 따라 할 때는 그 상황을 상상하며 목소리에 감정을 실어 보세요. 영어 발음 교정을 통해 자연스럽고 유창한 대화를 만들어낼 수 있습니다.
마지막으로, 비디오를 반복적으로 시청하고 흉내 내는 것이 중요합니다. 이렇게 함으로써 영어 회화 연습의 효과를 극대화할 수 있습니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
