A skill that you spent years mastering, one that used to be your competitive edge, might be completely outsourceable for a few pennies today.

AI can now write code, design graphics, analyse data, the very skills that we were once told would future -proof our careers.

Being irreplaceable means not only leveraging how to use AI well, but developing all those critical human skills that you just can't outsource.

If you're new here, I'm Izzy, a mum, tech co -founder and Cambridge trained doctor,

and on this channel we explore the strategies and mindsets to help you create your dream life.

Today I'm sharing a pyramid framework of the eight highest value human personal skills to help you become irreplaceable

and actually skill number eight is probably the most important of all.

I've also created a completely free guide with exercises and journal prompts to help you along the way.

I'll pop the link in the description below.

By the end of this video I hope that you'll know exactly

which skills to focus on and feel confident about your place in an AI driven future.

Without further ado let's dive in.

I spend a lot of my time thinking about hiring

and also what are actually key high value skills that I want our team to learn.

And as a business owner, I'm so interested in where AI is going to go

because that's going to fundamentally change the way that all of these businesses actually work.

And so these eight high value skills are drawn from both my own personal experience

and also reading what experts have been writing and saying about AI

and how that's going to change the way that we work and live.

Workplace surveys looking at how long a technical skill

that you learn is relevant to your work found

that a few decades ago a skill that you learned would usually last approximately 15 years.

The technical term is the half -life where it would take

about 15 years for half of your technical skills to become outdated.

So for example here

if I draw out this half -life of skill relevance with the top of the graph meaning

that 100 % of the skills that you have learned are relevant

and useful in your job and zero meaning none of them.

A few decades ago the skill relevance decay curve looked a little bit like this,

where you would start at 100 % and then it would very slowly kind of decay with this exponential decay curve, kind of like this.

And about half of the skills would decay at the about 15 year mark over here.

Now, however, because things are changing so quickly, that same curve looks a bit more like this.

And as you can see, the exponential decay here is much steeper.

This means

that there used to be a point in time where you

could almost stay with the same set of technical skills throughout most of your career, and by the time that you retired,

a lot of them would still be relevant.

But today, this just really isn't the case.

This means that about half of what you're learning right now might already be outdated in two years time, unless you keep learning.

And so this first foundational skill is adaptability and the ability to learn anything and become anything.

And so in a world that is changing more rapidly than ever, adaptability becomes one of the highest value skills.

At Cambridge University, during my medical degree, I actually spent one year studying biological anthropology.

And one of the key books that I read during this time was On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin, written in 1859.

And in this book, he proposed that it is not the strongest of species that survives, nor is it the most intelligent.

It is the one most adaptable to change.

Adaptability isn't just about picking up new skills and being able to learn.

It's also about being willing to let go of who you were in order to become who you need to be, who you're becoming.

This identity flexibility actually sits upstream of a lot of skill development.

Another quote that I love from Alvin Toffler, who was an American writer and futurist,

the illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.

And so this is your invitation to get really comfortable with actually just putting yourself out there, learning new skills, unlearning old identities,

and continually evolving and changing and adapting as the times change as well.

The next high value skill is communication.

Humans are fundamentally social creatures and communication will always be at the core of who we are and how we socialize.

Being able to communicate with skill, clarity, and compassion is an incredibly high value skill that is only going to get more essential.

There are two books and frameworks that I'd love to share

that have completely leveled up the way that I communicate and changed my relationships.

Before diving into those specifically, it's actually really helpful to understand and soft skills versus hard skills,

because skills can be broadly divided into these two camps.

Hard skills tend to be highly technical, job specific and teachable, such as learning how to code or like studying at medical school, learning law.

These are the types of skills that you often learn in school or in training.

And in some cases you get a shiny qualification or a certificate to show for it.

Soft skills on the other hand are behavioral attributes, values or traits that you learn through personal experience and reflection.

And so you won't necessarily be able to quantify or measure them, but they are essential for working well in a team and with other people.

Key examples here would be communication, teamwork, adaptability, which we already mentioned in point one.

And in this age of AI, increasingly soft skills are becoming the things that make a team stand out.

One study actually found that 58 % of managers felt

that their company's success would be held back by poor soft skills instead of hard skills,

especially in fast growing industries and startups that need to scale quickly.

And 59 % of managers found it more challenging to find good candidates with good soft skills compared to hard skills,

which basically means that soft skills are really very much in demand

and they're actually going to be even more important in the age of AI.

Google did a landmark internal study called Project Aristotle.

After studying 180 of their teams, Google discovered that the best performing teams weren't just the ones that had the highest IQ or the most talented.

They were actually the ones where the team members felt safe enough to share ideas, their thoughts, and mistakes without fearing embarrassment or humiliation.

They actually realized that the psychological safety net facilitated by great communication

and connection resulted in more productive discussions and more innovative solutions, and overall better performance.

And so these soft skills made the difference between the good teams and the excellent teams.

The first communication book that changed the game for me is Radical Candor by Kim Scott.

She worked at big tech companies

and drew a lot of learnings from her own experiences as a manager

and also what she learned from some of these high -powered executives that she was working with.

And she created this 4x4 grid with the axes of challenge directly,

where you're directly sharing honestly what you think and not being afraid to challenge somebody else's thoughts or opinions with your own.

And the other axis being care personally, where you really see the other person

that you're talking to as a real human being with an incredibly complex world that you don't truly fully understand,

but you really care about them deeply on a personal level.

And she realized that basically every interaction could be categorized into one of these four quadrants.

What this really unlocked for me was actually being able to see that being truly honest with somebody and candid,

while also maintaining this personal care and deep warmth and love for the person,

actually is a kinder way to communicate than trying to hide my negative feedback.

I used to view sharing my honest,

candid thoughts as maybe hurtful or inconvenient or unpleasant for other people to deal with if it conflicted with their worldview.

However, what reading this book made me realize is that, for example, let's say you're working with somebody on a project

and you think that their work could be improved in a certain way.

It's easy to think, oh, well, I don't wanna say that to them because they might feel offended by it.

And so then I'm just gonna not challenge them directly

because then maybe that will protect their feelings and either that's because I want them to feel good,

and that's ruinous empathy, or it's because I want them to like me because I don't really care about them personally,

100

but I want them to like me and manipulate them essentially into liking me, and that's manipulative insincerity.

101

And only by actually challenging them directly and being honest with how you're feeling do they have the opportunity to improve.

102

Because otherwise you're essentially denying them that opportunity before you've even presented it.

103

You've assumed, oh, they can't handle that, so I'm not going to give them the opportunity to potentially do the best work of their life.

104

And equally, if you challenge directly without caring personally, then that can come off as just obnoxiously aggressive.

105

And so it's this beautiful meeting place of communication where you feel like actually being truly honest with someone

106

and being willing to challenge them directly, giving them that opportunity to really understand what's going on.

107

Alongside Radical Candor, there's another book with a communication framework that I genuinely think everyone should know about.

108

It's completely changed the way that I communicate, mostly with my husband, but also other family,

109

friends, team members, colleagues, etc. It's called Nonviolent Communication and it was written by a psychologist called Marshall Rosenberg,

110

who originally actually created it while mediating racial integration conflicts in the American South in the 60s.

111

So this was genuinely forged in high -stakes situations, but the framework actually works for so many different applications.

112

The core idea is beautifully simple.

113

Rosenberg basically believed that underneath almost every conflict is actually a miscommunication about needs.

114

We all have the same basic human needs to be respected, to feel safe, to belong,

115

to have autonomy, but most of us have actually never really been taught how to express them directly

116

because this level of directness makes us vulnerable.

117

So instead of saying I really need to feel valued in this team, we say you don't appreciate anything I do.

118

And with this violent version of communication,

119

the other person is now feeling defensive and now we're in a conflict about something that was never the real issue.

120

So the NVC framework gives you four steps.

121

The first is to observe what happened without judgment.

122

For example, instead of saying, you always interrupt me, try saying, I noticed you interrupted me three times during our conversation just now.

123

Step two is to name the feeling, name the emotion that came up for you, such as, when you interrupted me, I felt frustrated.

124

The third step is to identify the unmet need underneath that.

125

I felt frustrated because I have a wish to feel heard.

126

I have a need to feel heard.

127

I sometimes personally like to phrase this as wish instead of need.

128

In his original framework he uses the word need but I'm like you know what I don't need it, I actually just wish for it.

129

I have a wish to feel heard and respected.

130

And the fourth step is to make a clear and actionable request.

131

So this is very clearly not a demand

132

and the difference between a request and a demand is that a request has no punishment or consequence.

133

A demand would be something like would you be willing to let me finish my thought before responding otherwise otherwise

134

I'm going to punish you in.. xyz kind of way.

135

A request is, would you be willing to let me finish my thoughts before responding?

136

The next skill is emotional fluidity and self -awareness.

137

The value of knowledge alone is going steeply downhill with AI, as so much knowledge is instantly accessible.

138

But emotional fluidity and self -awareness are two of the most important emotional skills that you actually can't delegate.

139

This has to come from you.

140

You have to cultivate your own mind, your own self -awareness, and your own wisdom internally.

141

One thing that you might have noticed, and I've certainly noticed this myself, is that AI often struggles to make good quality decisions.

142

And I think a key part of this is that decision -making is fundamentally emotion -driven.

143

Antonio Damasio was a neuroscientist who did a lot of research

144

on patients who had damage to the emotional centers of their brains.

145

He did one particular case study on a patient that he calls Elliot.

146

Elliot was always a really smart guy, sociable, well -liked.

147

However, he developed a brain tumor and he needed surgery to remove it.

148

After surgery, Elliot's IQ stayed in the genius range.

149

His memory, logic, language was all perfect and all intact.

150

And so you'd probably think, oh great, this surgery went well.

151

But actually, Elliot had completely changed and was unrecognizable.

152

Even though his IQ was intact,

153

he would spend literally hours trying to decide whether to schedule his next doctor's appointment on a Tuesday or a Thursday.

154

Or for example, when he wanted to decide to go to a restaurant for lunch, He would drive to restaurant after restaurant,

155

going in, comparing the menus and the seating arrangements, but still being completely unable to just pick one and actually eat.

156

Damasio realised that underpinning all of this was that Elliot had lost the ability to feel his emotions.

157

And without those emotions, he couldn't make decisions.

158

Even the most trivial choices, such as what colour pen to use or where to eat at lunch, became impossible.

159

And so Damasio's conclusion was

160

that pure logic without emotion doesn't actually lead to better decisions it actually just leads to no real decision at all.

161

And one thing I noticed is that this honestly sounds a little bit like some of the conversations I've had with AI.

162

Chatting to ChatGPT about, let's say, designing and running a hiring process, it could brilliantly come up with dozens

163

and dozens of options of questions I could ask

164

or like orders of hiring process and what kinds of trials and interviews and all that kind of thing.

165

But then when I asked it to have an opinion and choose which option it would recommend, it chose one.

166

But as soon as I pushed back on it even a little, It immediately completely changed its opinion and chose a different option.

167

And then I pushed it a little bit again.

168

And then it kept changing its mind over and over again.

169

Because fundamentally, it didn't really have a clear opinion or decision around this.

170

And so learning to be really aware of your own emotions

171

and your internal state is this source of embodied human wisdom that is so personal to you.

172

Literally millions of years of evolution and this chain of ancestors has gone before us into honing our internal system.

173

And I've always found that making decisions that are aligned on three levels, which is head, heart, and gut,

174

are always the most powerful and feel the best.

175

And so whenever I'm making a big decision, such as hiring, or where to move, or something about our baby,

176

I always try to align on my decision with head, heart, and gut.

177

And fundamentally, AI can never make decisions like this for you.

178

All it can provide is some kind of scaffolding of logic and options for you, and maybe act as a bit of a sounding board therapist

179

but fundamentally you have to learn to hear your own intuition and your emotions and trust yourself.

180

And fundamentally this is something that AI can never replace, which is the ability to lead your own very human life.

181

The next two skills are actually literacy and the first one is AI literacy.

182

Most people are under utilizing their longest lever, which is actually AI.

183

And people who use this lever the best unlock so much more of their potential.

184

The goal here is where AI becomes an extension of you like a team member

185

or like an extra limb and it adds so much leverage.

186

There are two key things I'd like to say here.

187

Firstly is

188

that actually spending about an hour a day leveling up on

189

your AI usage is one of the highest leverage uses of your time that you could possibly ever do.

190

And the second thing is that a really clear place to start is with prompt engineering.

191

Obviously there's all this extra stuff with agentic AI

192

and building out AI agents which is an even longer lever

193

but the first step on that is learning how to engineer really good prompts

194

that get the kind of output that you want.

195

One thing that you can easily do to figure out

196

if AI can help you at any point to leverage your time is doing a simple time tracking

197

and then actually pasting this into either ChatGPT or Gemini

198

or Claude and asking it to analyze where you're spending your time

199

and brainstorm in what ways AI could actually help you to accelerate

200

or skip out or automate some of what you're working on.

201

Some examples for me are meal planning.

202

I found that AI is so helpful with this where I put in the macros

203

that we want and the kind of balance of whole unprocessed foods

204

that we want and AI comes up with a great meal plan off the back of this.

205

Another AI tool I use regularly is called VoicePal

206

which is actually part of our portfolio of software apps

207

and it essentially lets you chat to the app

208

and then AI will clean up the transcription

209

and then help you to flesh out your ideas more by asking you follow -up questions.

210

I could honestly go on and on about this.

211

But the key takeaway is to spend time investing in your AI ability.

212

The next form of literacy is a business literacy.

213

So much of the world is built by and run on businesses.

214

And a business fundamentally is a form of value creation and exchange.

215

So even just knowing the fundamentals of business gives you

216

so much more of a deep understanding of how things around you are working.

217

At the most fundamental level, a business creates value and people exchange money for that value.

218

And often the value that businesses create is in the form of solving problems for people.

219

The higher value a problem is to somebody who has the money to pay for that problem to be solved,

220

the more valuable a business generally is.

221

And the more people it can solve that problem for, so the more scalable it is.

222

So let's say instead of just being able to help one person, being able to help 1000 people, usually the more value that business is creating,

223

and therefore the more money they get in exchange for that.

224

Let's take the example of Amazon.

225

Amazon have created a marketplace where people can buy things that are useful to them.

226

Sellers can list their items on there or there's things sold from Amazon directly and then consumers, people like you and me,

227

can go on the website and think oh I need that.

228

Let's say this journal.

229

I want to buy a new journal.

230

I have a problem where I want to be able to write things down

231

and keep them in a nice place with nice paper

232

and it feels good to use and

233

so a journal is a great solution for that and

234

so I'm willing to pay money in in exchange for a nice journal that I can use.

235

And most jobs in the world are actually created by businesses.

236

So once you understand how businesses actually work, how value is created, exchanged and captured, you start seeing all of these opportunities everywhere.

237

The restaurant that has a 30 minute wait becomes a problem worth solving.

238

The friend feeling lost at the gym

239

and not knowing what to do about their workout routine becomes a potential audience or someone that can be helped with value.

240

Business literacy isn't about getting an MBA, it's about actually developing a problem solvers lens on the world.

241

This allows you to either build your own business

242

or understand the one that you work in and the ones that you interact with to be able to excel.

243

One question I love to ask is what will be true in 10 years time?

244

And I think what will still be true is that humans will still crave human connection.

245

For example, social media has supposedly made us more connected,

246

but actually we feel more isolated than ever and are actually craving human connection more than ever.

247

Another thing to mention is that if you ever wanted to start up your own business someday,

248

we're actually launching a mentorship program called the Lifestyle Business Academy.

249

It's still in the early stages.

250

The goal is essentially to help you to go from zero to 100k plus on your own lifestyle business.

251

And where the focus isn't just making more money, but actually creating a lifestyle and business ecosystem, which helps you to create your dream life.

252

If you're interested in hearing more or joining the waitlist, I'll leave a link down below in the description.

253

The next high value skill is the courage to be seen.

254

The bar for entry to create content is getting lower and lower.

255

And AI slop is really sloshing into the algorithms these days.

256

And maybe you can relate to this where whenever I go onto one of these social media platforms, and I start scrolling through the feeds,

257

there is a moment where I think, is this AI?

258

And then when I see a face that I don't recognize pop up, there's immediately some level of skepticism.

259

On the flip side, if I see a creator who I know, like and trust already, I immediately feel more comfortable actually believing what they're saying.

260

And so in a world where anyone can vibe code an app or have expert knowledge at the touch of a button,

261

one of the most powerful moats in business and life is trust.

262

And a personal brand is an incredible way of doing this and building this founder -led content,

263

essentially content that's created by the CEO of a company, actually gets 46 % more engagement than typical corporate material.

264

And this is because people like engaging with real people and they want to buy from real people.

265

Another incredible example of this is the Hormozis.

266

So Alex and Leila Hormozis are co -founders and managing partners of acquisition .com,

267

which is essentially the portfolio of companies where they invest in companies and help them to succeed.

268

Over four years or so, their portfolio has grown to over 250 million in annual revenue.

269

Traditionally, private equity firms who go and invest in companies or buy companies are usually like hunters.

270

Essentially, they pay high costs to find good deals

271

and find good companies and convince people that they are the right investor

272

or they are the right person to buy that company.

273

But for the Hormozis, by producing vast quantities of founder -led content with really high quality value first stuff,

274

the Hormozis have actually turned themselves into a magnet where the deals come to find them.

275

This creates a few clear unfair advantages.

276

Firstly, content is acting as a 24 -7 lead machine for them.

277

Secondly, the content is building significant trust and influence with the people that they want to speak to, aka founders.

278

Founders who are watching their content are learning about how the Hormozis think about culture

279

and metrics and how they are building their businesses,

280

which then means that those founders are much more likely to want to work with the Hormozies down the line.

281

And so they've built out this incredible trust engine in the form of their personal brands.

282

I believe so strongly in building a personal brand and having a personal website to show for it.

283

But so many people just don't take that leap

284

because they think maybe you need to hire a developer for a website

285

or learn to code or spend hundreds of dollars setting everything up or getting a designer.

286

But what this results in is continually delaying these ideas from actually being executed on.

287

And so instead of saying, one day I'm gonna build a website,

288

make today day one of actually building your personal brand and that's where Hostinger comes in, who are sponsoring today's video.

289

It's an all -in -one website builder

290

that lets you create a site in genuinely minutes

291

and it's one of the most affordable ways to just get your presence online.

292

You simply describe your brand or your project and it generates a full website for you in literally seconds.

293

The point isn't to have a perfect site on the first try

294

but a foundation to build off of and then you can go ahead and customize everything from fonts,

295

colors, images, add different features with drag and drop, literally no coding needed.

296

As a creator entrepreneur, what caught my eye was that Hostinger literally provides everything that you need in one place.

297

You get various tools, a website builder, logo maker, SEO assistant, so you're not piecing together multiple subscriptions.

298

You can even start selling products in your own online store with no transaction fees on their business plan.

299

If you happen to be watching before the end of March 2026, with their new year sale running right now,

300

where if you sign up for a longer period, such as their 48 -month plan,

301

then you can lock in their lowest prices for their business plan at $2 .99 a month.

302

I've popped the link in my description down below, hostlinger .com forward slash Dr. Izzy,

303

and you can use my code Dr. Izzy for an extra 10 % off.

304

Now let's get back into the video.

305

Your personal brand isn't about being perfect or universally liked.

306

It's actually about being trustable, authentic, and real.

307

And so here are some steps that you can put into practice right now.

308

Pick a platform with an algorithm and start creating content for it.

309

Learn how to create great content and show up really as you and delivering value, but as your authentic self.

310

Over time, this will hopefully gain traction with some people who actually vibe with you

311

and then start building your owned audience in the form of your email list.

312

The seventh high value skill is storytelling.

313

Whether this is for business, content marketing or connection,

314

our love of stories is one of the key things that gave humans a survival edge hundreds of thousands of years ago.

315

Anthropologists believe that storytelling actually gave homo sapiens,

316

which is our species, a critical survival advantage over other hominids because it allowed us to coordinate across large groups.

317

In his book Sapiens, Yuval Noah Harari writes that this ability to create and share fictional stories such as myths or religions,

318

nations, currencies, is what enabled humans to cooperate in these large numbers, something that literally no other species can do on the same scale.

319

And there is genuinely a formula to storytelling.

320

Several years ago, I read the book Storyworthy by Matthew Dix, and he talks about his homework for life,

321

where every single day he writes down a single line story about his day.

322

And I found that whenever I do this, and I actually exercise this storytelling muscle every single day, my life feels so much more alive.

323

I have a page in my bullet journal where I literally just have a one line for every single day's story,

324

like what's the highlight of the day.

325

And reading back through this helps me to weave together a feeling of romanticizing my life.

326

Princeton Research in 2017 had participants watch a dramatic part of an episode of Sherlock

327

while they were in an fMRI scanner scanning their brain.

328

They then asked one of the participants to tell back the story of the episode while also being scanned again,

329

and they made a voice recording of their storytelling.

330

And finally they got new participants who hadn't seen the episode

331

at all to listen to the voice recording of the storytelling

332

and they also had their brains scanned while they listened to the story

333

and were mentally constructing the show from what they heard.

334

And so on the face of it watching a video clip, recalling it later and telling a story,

335

and then actually imagining it from someone else's description are three very different cognitive processes.

336

But actually the team found that the brain patterns were remarkably similar.

337

There were shared patterns of brain activation regardless regardless of whether the participant was watching, remembering or imagining the scene.

338

And this is the power of storytelling.

339

Being able to craft a compelling story is a fundamentally human thing

340

and a way to really connect and resonate with other people and actually sync up the patterns of brain activity.

341

Another incredible power of storytelling is its counter positioning to AI, where AI often deals in objective averages, essentially predicting the most likely next word,

342

whereas storytelling actually deals in subjective truth and includes things like your unique, quirky, and sometimes irrational perspective or experiences.

343

And so in a world of averages, actually these unique, quirky human stories are what still feel crunchy and can cut through the white noise.

344

And now onto the eighth and most important skill of all, which is self -love.

345

And this is the one high -value skill that I haven't seen anyone list anywhere else.

346

But this really cuts to the core of why we should

347

even be investing in all these high value skills in the first place.

348

Most people would say that skills are useful

349

because they can get you opportunities or money or status or achievement or create an impact on the world etc.

350

But then if you go one level above that, why care about those things?

351

Usually when we dig deeper there's actually a fundamental wish to feel happy and fulfilled.

352

And so all of the above are often proxies for this sense of joy and fulfillment.

353

Things that we predict will help us to get to or create that feeling.

354

But what if there was a direct path that you could start walking on today?

355

And that path is self -love and compassion.

356

This might sound kind of woo -woo, but there's actually evidence behind this, so bear with me.

357

Kristin Neff at the University of Texas, who is a specialist researcher on the topic of self -compassion,

358

found that her research shows that self -compassionate people have less performance anxiety, more self -confidence, less fear of failure,

359

they're more willing to take risks, have a growth mindset.

360

And the reason that I put this at the top of the framework is that if you have this one skill,

361

this is something that AI can never do for you ever, ever.

362

But actually developing this sense of compassion for yourself

363

and others is the prerequisite to living a life that you love and that you feel fulfilled in.

364

So now that we've gone through all the eight high value skills that are irreplaceable in the age of AI,

365

I'd like to invite you to choose at least one of them to work on this week.

366

It's all good and well watching these kinds of videos and getting inspiration, but the key thing is actually making this happen in your own life.

367

You can even use the completely free guide that I've made to get you started.

368

If you liked this video, I think you'll enjoy this one over here where I share eight simple shifts

369

that will help you to step into being the CEO of your own life.

370

Feel free to hit subscribe for more self -development videos every single week.

371

And as always, thank you so much for watching.

372

Take care of yourselves and remember that the journey is the destination.

373

I'll see you in the next video.

374

Bye.

Грамматика в этом видео

Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:

Конструкция	В видео
«Used to» used to + глагол — прошлая привычка или состояние, которых больше нет	used to be · used to view

Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предмете	those who cannot · levels, which is · replace, which is

Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание

Говорящий использует 72 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например you're, I'm, don't. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.

Звуки «th»: underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/, authentic /ɔˈθɛn.tɪk/, seventh /ˈsɛvənθ/, eighth /eɪtθ/
Звуки «sh» и «zh»: essentially /ɪˈsɛnʃəli/, emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, compassion /kəmˈpæʃ.ən/, extension /ɪkˈstɛnʃən/, capture /ˈkæp.(t)ʃɚ/

Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:

/w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: framework /ˈfɹeɪm.wɜːk/, awareness /əˈwɛɹ.nəs/, wisdom /ˈwɪzdəm/, quirky /ˈkwɜːki/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/
/h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: hire /ˈhaɪɹ/, helpful /ˈhɛlp.fl̩/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, highlight /ˈhaɪˌlaɪt/
Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: solve /sɒlv/, curve /kɚv/, leverage /ˈlɛv.(ə.)ɹɪd͡ʒ/, vibe /vaɪb/, outdated /aʊtˈdeɪtɪd/

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
