1
about attempting things, I mean, you're currently studying, right?
2
You're learning.
3
Yes.
4
Yes.
5
Well, two things I want to say there is I think in a way I was sort of,
6
I mean, I'm someone who's always cared about vulnerability and authenticity, but I think I was also
7
forced into it to a degree that maybe even I wasn't ready for and that I just started
8
so young that I had to learn in public.
9
I had to make mistakes in public and say, oh, okay, now I've learned this.
10
And I had to be willing to go back and be like, like, there were some gaps here.
11
And here's what I know now.
12
And I think people's, I agree with you, I think it's becoming increasingly difficult to learn in public and continuing to learn.
13
I mean, I think that's one of the reasons why I have gone back to school
14
and why I continue to do it is
15
because I want to make sure that I have things to say that are worth saying.
16
And I think you can only do that if you take a minute sometimes and listen to some people who aren't you,
17
you know, and like not just the sound of my own wonderful voice.
18
So yeah, it's been great.
19
And I think also I wanted to be inspired.
20
I think being around, my favorite piece has been being around young people who still believe
21
that the world is malleable and things are changeable and
22
that like anything can be done is um such important energy there's
23
so much dystopian fiction at the moment and dystopian movies it's so dark
24
and i'm just like what happened to thinking about the utopia
25
what happened to like planning for the best case scenario like where where did we lose vision, excitement, imagination, possibility.
26
So I think it's been wonderful to be around young people and just to sit there and listen.
27
Yeah.
28
Do you ever, I mean, you clearly read so much.
29
Do you have to take yourself away to do it in order to be able to do it?
30
Do you have to cordon off time?
31
How are you still managing to study and learn?
32
Because that seems like it's important to you.
33
Yeah, you reminded me as you were talking of one of my spiritual teachers, my monk teacher, who always said to me,
34
if you want to move three steps forward, you have to go three steps deep first.
35
Whoa.
36
And what I found often in my life is I'm trying to go four steps forward, and I haven't yet gone four steps deep.
37
And so it's almost like, I mean, this is probably a terrible analogy, but maybe thinking of the movie The Substance.
38
I don't know if you watched it.
39
I didn't see it.
40
Okay, fine.
41
Okay, terrible.
42
Let's remove it.
43
No, no, no. No, no, no. Let's forget about it.
44
But it's that idea of like every extra step you take
45
when you haven't learned and you haven't experimented and you haven't attempted is taking away from your ability to move forward.
46
And sometimes I think when we feel stuck or when we think things are not moving or they're not progressing,
47
it may be a sign to say, well, pause and go deeper for a second or pause and go inward for a second.
48
And so to me, hearing that from you, I find that, and I definitely fail at this all the time.
49
There are so many times I'm trying to push more forward than I've gone deep.
50
And so whenever I notice that myself and I notice that I'm just kind of trying everything and nothing is working,
51
it's actually just the universe and self saying to me, go read, go study.
52
And so I found that I've had to really carve out time to make time to do what I love, which is to read and study.
53
But I found that I'm someone who doesn't love 30 minutes a day.
54
I'm not that kind of a I'm someone who needs to read for three or four hours, if not more.
55
And so I found that carving out deep immersive time is more important to me than this kind of mechanical 30,
56
40 minutes a day, which is great for you if that works for you as a habit.
57
It doesn't for me because I'm a bit of an extremist and I just need to spend a whole weekend reading
58
as opposed to, you know, I don't need to read every day.
59
So I'll try and, I try once a month on a weekend to just absorb into a subject
60
that I love and I'll take a course, I'll go to a class, I'll watch a TED talk online,
61
I'll read as many books as I can, and I try and immerse myself that way.
62
What's your learning style?
63
I'm the same as you, and actually, someone who I really respect and ask for advice for often, and I ask for feedback on myself,
64
he said to me, Emma, I think if you did 90 % of what you wanted to do at 50 % of the speed,
65
you would get so much more, like life would be so much better.
66
And I was like, wow, 50 % of the speed and only 90 % of what I want to do.
67
And he was like, I think that's the minimum, to be honest.
68
And I was like, wow.
69
But I think, yeah, what you said resonates.
70
I think I often have to remind myself that.
71
It's not about speedily getting somewhere.
72
It's just not the point.
73
Things are supposed to happen with a certain timing.
74
And so, yeah, it resonates.
75
And to your point, I cannot just sit for 30 minutes and look at something.
76
I need a week on holiday, and then I'll start to deeply get into something.
77
And I need quiet, and I hyper -focus and that's when I love it,
78
but I can't do little itty bitty bits.
79
It drives me nuts.
80
It's the same, it just doesn't work for me.
81
It doesn't work for me.
82
It doesn't work for me.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
