English Leap Podcast from Speak English with Class.
2
Hey, English learners.
3
Welcome back to the English Leap Podcast, your English podcast for daily life English, real conversations, and easy English listen-in practice.
4
I'm Anna.
5
And I'm Jake.
6
We're really glad you pressed play today.
7
Maybe you're a bit tired.
8
Maybe you're walking somewhere.
9
Maybe you're lying on your bed, staring at the ceiling.
10
But hey, you're not alone here.
11
Yeah, if you're going to stare at the ceiling and think about life, you might as well do it with some English in your ears.
12
Exactly.
13
Your plans may feel a little messy right now, but your listening practice is on point.
14
And you sound extra calm today, Jake.
15
Normally you're a bit more...hyper.
16
What changed?
17
Honestly, lately I've been feeling a little lost myself.
18
So today I told myself, Okay, don't pretend everything is perfect.
19
Just show up and be real.
20
I get that.
21
I also have those days when I do my normal routine, but inside I'm thinking, where am I going?
22
What am I doing?
23
Yeah, like your feet are moving, but your heart doesn't know the direction.
24
And we know many of you feel this too.
25
Life is moving, time is passing, but inside you feel stuck, confused, or unsure about your path.
26
That's why today's episode is important for us.
27
In this episode, we're talking about feeling lost in life and how that feeling might not be a failure, but the beginning of a new chapter.
28
We're going to share stories, talk about this feeling slowly,
29
and give you small ideas you can try so you can see this lost moment in a kinder, softer way.
30
But before we go deeper, we want to ask you for just one tiny favor.
31
If you enjoy learning with us, please like this episode and subscribe to the channel.
32
It helps more learners find the English Leap podcast and join our little community.
33
And we'd really love to hear from you in the comments.
34
You can write one simple sentence.
35
Something like, I'm your name from your country.
36
And one time I felt lost in life was when...
37
We read your messages, and they really help us understand what you're going through, not just in English, but in life.
38
And when you write, your brain has to choose words and make a sentence.
39
That's real practice, not just listening and forgetting.
40
OK, let's also talk quickly about the English level for today so you feel safe.
41
This episode is a B1 level episode.
42
That means the language is clear and not too fast, but the ideas are a bit deep and emotional.
43
Perfect for intermediate learners.
44
Yeah, it's not super simple and it's not super advanced.
45
It's that comfortable middle place where you can understand a lot and still learn new things.
46
And if you're a strong beginner, you can still stay with us.
47
You might not understand every single word, but your ears will get stronger.
48
Yeah, this is a safe episode for you, too.
49
You can use it as a bridge from easy English to more natural, real English.
50
So, wherever you are on your English journey and your life journey, you're welcome here with us.
51
And because we're vocabulary nerds, we will play with some bigger words today.
52
During the episode, we'll explain important words naturally inside the conversation, so you don't have to pause and look everything up.
53
And at the end, we'll do a calm word tour.
54
We'll slow down and go over some key vocabulary again with simple examples just for you.
55
All right.
56
If you can, take one deep breath.
57
Yeah.
58
Breathe in and out.
59
Let's start talking about that feeling of being lost and see what it might be trying to tell you.
60
Anna, have you ever had a moment like that?
61
A moment when you suddenly thought, wait, is this really my life?
62
Yes, very clearly.
63
I can still see it like a little movie in my mind.
64
It was a normal morning a few years ago.
65
I was sitting in my car outside my workplace.
66
So, normal morning, normal job, normal day.
67
Yeah.
68
If you looked from the outside, everything looked perfect.
69
Stable job, regular hours, friendly co-workers.
70
My parents were proud.
71
My friends said, wow, that's nice.
72
So, on paper, everything looked good.
73
Safe, stable, successful.
74
But that morning, I just sat there holding the steering wheel.
75
I didn't want to open the door.
76
My body was still, but my mind was shouting, I don't want to go in.
77
Inside my head, I thought, is this it?
78
Is this how the next 10 years will feel?
79
Wake up, drive here, go home, repeat.
80
And that thought hit me like a wave.
81
In that moment, I knew something was off.
82
I wasn't on my real path.
83
I was a little off course.
84
Wow.
85
Yeah, that really hits.
86
I had a similar moment, but for me, it didn't happen in a car.
87
It felt more like I was walking inside a giant maze.
88
A maze?
89
Yeah.
90
Imagine those tall green walls where you can't see over the top.
91
I kept turning left, right, forward, but every turn just made me more confused.
92
In my head, I kept asking, am I doing the right thing?
93
Is this really my path?
94
Or just the path I fell into by accident?
95
Mmm, that picture is so strong.
96
Everyone walking confidently and you bumping into walls, turning in circles.
97
And the hardest part was, everyone around me looked like they had it together.
98
They looked like they had maps, directions, a plan.
99
And I felt like the only one standing there with empty hands, no map, no idea.
100
That's such a lonely feeling.
101
Everyone with maps and you with nothing.
102
Yeah, it felt really uncomfortable.
103
Like wearing shoes that are the wrong size.
104
Not terrible, but never quite right.
105
And that uncomfortable feeling, that, I'm stuck, I don't fit feeling, is actually important.
106
Important?
107
How?
108
Because it can be a signal, a quiet alarm from inside you.
109
A little wake-up call from your heart saying, hey, something is wrong here.
110
Something needs to change.
111
It hurts, yes.
112
It can make you cry or feel empty.
113
But it's also powerful.
114
Because when you finally stop and ask, wait, what am I doing?
115
Is this really my life?
116
That's the moment when clarity can begin.
117
Hmm.
118
It's like standing at a crossroads, two or three roads in front of you, and for the first time you see that you have a choice.
119
And often it's not because you made bad choices before.
120
Right.
121
times it's simply because you listened to too many other voices and stopped listening to your own.
122
Yeah.
123
Let's stay with this and talk about those other voices for a moment.
124
Right.
125
Voices like parents, teachers, friends, co-workers, even strangers on TikTok or YouTube.
126
Everyone has an idea about what you should do with your life.
127
It's like standing in the middle of a busy market and everyone is shouting advice at you.
128
Yeah.
129
And after a while, it feels like your brain is that market.
130
So many voices, so much noise.
131
And slowly, the noise gets so loud that your own voice becomes quiet.
132
You stop asking, what do I want?
133
And start thinking, what will make them happy with me?
134
I remember my family WhatsApp group when I finished school.
135
Every aunt, every uncle had a different plan for my life.
136
Yeah?
137
What did they say?
138
One said, be a doctor.
139
It's safe.
140
Another said, no, engineer.
141
That's the future.
142
Someone else said, business, you can earn a lot.
143
And there I was, staring at my phone, thinking, does anyone want to know what I like?
144
That's so real.
145
So many people talking about your life, but not really listening to your heart.
146
That's when I started thinking about this idea of an inner compass.
147
We all have a small compass inside us, not made of metal, but made of feelings.
148
Your heart, your gut, your instinct.
149
Yeah, and that compass quietly points to what feels honest for you.
150
Maybe creativity, maybe freedom, maybe family, maybe service.
151
But if that compass turns just a few degrees away from your true direction, not a big turn, just a little.
152
Then after a few years, you can end up miles away from the life you actually wanted.
153
You wake up and think, hold on, whose dream am I living?
154
Mine or someone else's?
155
And often you end up on what people call the safe path.
156
The path that looks beautiful on Instagram, sounds good at family dinners, but feels heavy when you're alone with your thoughts.
157
That was me in university.
158
I didn't choose from my heart.
159
I chose a major that sounded impressive in conversations.
160
People smiled and said, wow, that's a strong choice.
161
You'll have a great future.
162
So outside, it looked like you were winning.
163
But inside, I felt like a robot.
164
I went to class, took notes, passed exams, but there was no spark, no joy.
165
Years later, I had the paper, the degree, but not the passion,
166
just confusion and this quiet feeling of regret.
167
And that's why it's so important to stop sometimes and check your inner compass, to stand still for a moment and ask,
168
where is it really pointing?
169
You can ask yourself a very simple question.
170
Am I doing this because I truly want to or because I think I'm supposed to?
171
It's a small sentence, but it can change the way you see your whole life.
172
And when you slowly turn down the volume of those outside voices and your own voice becomes a little clearer again, something new comes in.
173
Yes.
174
The thing many of us try to avoid, that strange open feeling called uncertainty.
175
Yeah.
176
Let's talk about this big thing, not knowing what comes next.
177
We humans really like plans, right?
178
Mmm, we do.
179
We love calendars, to-do lists, and five-year plans.
180
It makes us feel safe when we think we know the next step.
181
And when we don't know, our brain gets nervous.
182
Yeah!
183
Like, when your internet stops for a second and the video just keeps loading, that little circle turns and turns and you feel impatient.
184
That loading feeling is a bit like uncertainty.
185
You're between two things, old and new, and nothing feels clear yet.
186
But here's the gentle twist.
187
Uncertainty is not always an enemy.
188
Sometimes it's like an empty room.
189
At first it feels strange and cold, but it's also a space where you can decide what to put inside.
190
I really felt that when I left a job that didn't feel right anymore.
191
I didn't have a perfect plan B.
192
I just had this heavy feeling, I can't stay here.
193
So from the outside, it probably looked like a bad move, leaving something safe with no clear next step.
194
Yeah.
195
People around me said, are you sure?
196
This is risky.
197
And I thought, maybe they're right.
198
Maybe I'm just being silly.
199
But then the next few months were surprisingly quiet and deep.
200
I walked more, I read books I always wanted to read, I tried small new things, and for the first time in a long time, I listened to my own thoughts.
201
So, it was like stepping out of a noisy party into a silent garden.
202
At first, the silence feels uncomfortable.
203
Then, you start to hear your own heartbeat again.
204
Yes.
205
And little by little, a new direction started to appear.
206
Not in one big moment, but like the sun slowly coming up.
207
First it's dark, then gray, then you see shapes, and then the colors come back.
208
That's the strange gift of uncertainty.
209
When things are not fixed, we become curious again.
210
We ask better questions.
211
We try small experiments instead of running on autopilot.
212
It's still scary, for sure, but it's also the space between the old life and the new life, like a bridge you have to walk across.
213
So if you feel unsure right now, maybe it's not proof that you failed.
214
Maybe it's just proof that you're standing on a bridge.
215
You don't have to see the whole map of your future.
216
You just need to stay open and curious, and trust that something new might be growing quietly in this in-between space.
217
And to even guess what that something new could be, you have to look at what really matters to you.
218
Yeah, that's important.
219
When you say what really matters, Anna, what are you talking about exactly?
220
I'm talking about your values, the simple things that are truly important in your life.
221
Not your job title, not your exam score, not how many likes you get.
222
Values like family, freedom, learning, kindness, health, the big things that make your heart feel right.
223
Yes.
224
You can ask yourself, what three things do I deeply care about in my life?
225
If everything disappears, what do I still want to protect?
226
Often when we feel lost, it's because we quietly walked away from those values, step by step, without noticing.
227
I had a season like that.
228
I was so busy trying to be productive, ticking boxes, answering emails quickly,
229
doing all the tasks, that I stopped doing things that made me feel alive.
230
Things like what?
231
like writing in my journal, taking long walks with close friends, having slow, deep conversations.
232
Those things always gave me energy, but I told myself, no time, no time.
233
So you were doing a lot, but not doing the things that made you feel like you.
234
Yes.
235
When I looked back, I realized I had drifted away from what made me me.
236
My days were full, but my heart felt empty.
237
And when you slowly walk back to your values, even in small ways, things don't suddenly become perfect,
238
but something feels more honest.
239
You might still feel unsure, but at least you're walking in a direction that matches your heart, not just your schedule.
240
And once you have a sense of what matters most, the next step is not some big dramatic change.
241
It usually starts with something very small.
242
Yeah, this is where micro-goals come in.
243
Very small goals that still count.
244
Micro-goals.
245
Like baby steps for your life.
246
On some days, I didn't feel like doing anything big.
247
So I made the goal tiny.
248
Just write one sentence today.
249
Or just go for a ten-minute walk.
250
Not a whole book.
251
Not a marathon on just one little action.
252
I really connect with that.
253
I had days when my only goal was get out of bed and drink one glass of water.
254
That was my big win.
255
And you know what?
256
That is a win.
257
Yeah, because that one small action gave me a tiny sense of progress.
258
And progress, even a few centimeters, builds momentum.
259
Time is like the push that keeps the bicycle moving after you start pedaling.
260
We often think change must look like an elevator going straight up.
261
But in real life, change is more like stairs, small steps one by one.
262
Even one simple English sentence spoken out loud every morning can slowly change your confidence.
263
It's like adding one brick each day to a strong house.
264
So if you're feeling stuck, don't wait for a huge movie moment where everything changes.
265
Start with one tiny friendly win today.
266
Something so small that you can actually do it.
267
And even when you start taking those small steps, some days still feel heavy.
268
That's when people become really important.
269
Yeah, support changes everything.
270
When you felt lost, Jake, did someone help you?
271
Yes.
272
One of the best things I did was send a real message to a friend.
273
Not the I'm fine, all good message.
274
The real one.
275
So you told him the truth, not the polite version.
276
Right.
277
I wrote, hey, I feel really confused about my life right now.
278
Can we talk?
279
My finger was shaking before I pressed send.
280
I understand that feeling.
281
Your finger over the send button thinking, is this too much?
282
Am I being dramatic?
283
Yeah, I thought all of that, but I sent it.
284
And when we talked, he didn't try to fix my life.
285
He just listened.
286
He said, I get it.
287
I've felt like that too.
288
And suddenly, I didn't feel crazy or alone anymore.
289
Sometimes just knowing that one person understands you, that one person is quietly there on the other side of the phone,
290
makes your feelings feel less heavy.
291
That person can be a friend, a teacher, a mentor, a family member, or even an online community,
292
like this English Leap family listening right now.
293
And when you share your journey with someone, something else happens.
294
You start to feel more accountable.
295
That means you feel responsible to show up because you know someone believes in you and is watching your progress with kindness.
296
So if you're listening right now and feeling alone, maybe this is your sign.
297
Yes.
298
Maybe tonight or tomorrow.
299
You can send one honest message.
300
Something simple like, Hey, I'm struggling a bit.
301
Can we talk?
302
You're not weak for needing support.
303
You're brave for asking for it.
304
It takes courage to say, I can't do this all alone.
305
And when you ask for help and you take those tiny steps, something beautiful slowly appears.
306
Your own lost and found story.
307
Yeah, that's your real story, not the perfect one on paper.
308
And the funny thing is, we usually wait to feel proud only when something big happens.
309
Passing a big exam, getting a new job, moving to a new country.
310
But there are so many quiet moments that also deserve love and respect.
311
Moments like the night you didn't give up, the morning you got out of bed when you felt empty,
312
the day you pressed play on this episode instead of scrolling mindlessly.
313
Yes.
314
We remember our mistakes so clearly.
315
The things we did wrong, the chances we missed.
316
But our brave moments?
317
We forget them so quickly.
318
Last year, I started something small.
319
I called it my lost and found journal.
320
Nothing special, just a simple notebook.
321
On one side of the page, I wrote down moments when I felt stuck, sad, or confused.
322
And on the other side, you wrote what you found in those moments, right?
323
Yeah.
324
On the other side, I wrote what I learned or discovered later.
325
Sometimes I found patience.
326
Sometimes I found a new idea.
327
Sometimes I realized, oh, I met an important person during that time.
328
When I looked back, I realized I wasn't just lost.
329
I was changing, growing, becoming a different version of myself.
330
I really love that picture.
331
Like, your life is a little lost-and-found office.
332
You lose something, but you also find something new — strength, wisdom, courage.
333
Maybe today you can think of one time you felt lost, and ask, What did I find there?
334
Maybe you found a new friend.
335
Maybe you found more courage.
336
Maybe you found the strength to start again after a hard time.
337
Those moments are worth celebrating.
338
Not with big fireworks, but with soft kindness.
339
A small smile, a deep breath, a gentle thought, I'm still on my way, and that's enough for today.
340
Hmm.
341
Even saying that gives me goosebumps.
342
I think both of us needed that reminder too.
343
And we hope you felt something meaningful in this part of the episode.
344
Maybe a new idea, a softer perspective, or just the comfort of knowing you're not walking alone.
345
Yeah.
346
And while we were talking, we used some pretty big words and ideas, too.
347
Right, we did.
348
Jake, we used some big emotional words today.
349
Maybe we should slow down and talk about them a little.
350
Yeah, let's do a tiny word tour before we finish, a calm one.
351
And I think we should start with the feeling of this episode, a heart-to-heart.
352
Right.
353
So, a heart-to-heart is a deep, honest conversation, not small talk.
354
It's when you speak from your heart about real feelings.
355
For example, I had a heart-to-heart with my friend about my future means we talked very honestly about my life.
356
Exactly.
357
You can say, I want to have a heart-to-heart with my sister about how I feel.
358
And sometimes, in those heart-to-heart talks, we talk about regret.
359
Yes, regret is a sad feeling about something you did or didn't do.
360
For example, I regret not starting English earlier means I feel bad because I waited too long.
361
Or, she regrets shouting at her friend means she feels sorry about what she did.
362
Another big word we used was uncertainty.
363
Uncertainty.
364
That feeling when you don't know what will happen next.
365
Exactly.
366
Uncertainty is when the future is not clear and you feel unsure.
367
You can say, there is a lot of uncertainty in my life right now.
368
When you don't know what will happen with your job, studies, or relationships.
369
But inside uncertainty, we also said a more positive word, curious.
370
Yes.
371
Curious means you really want to know or learn more about something.
372
For example, she was curious about painting, so she joined a weekend class.
373
Or, I'm curious about life in another country means you want to explore and understand it more.
374
We also talked about how we sometimes drift away from our real values.
375
Yes.
376
To drift means to move slowly without clear control or direction, like a boat with no driver.
377
You can say, he drifted away from his real goals, meaning he slowly moved away from what was important to him.
378
Or, I drifted into a job I didn't really like.
379
Means you didn't choose it strongly, you just ended up there.
380
And then we said something more hopeful.
381
Momentum.
382
Momentum is the energy that keeps you moving forward once you start.
383
For example, when she studied a little every day, she built momentum, and it became easier to continue.
384
Or, I lost my momentum with English, but I want to start again with five minutes a day.
385
Sometimes after momentum, you get a breakthrough.
386
A breakthrough is big progress after struggling for some time.
387
You can say, after many tries, he had a breakthrough in speaking English, meaning suddenly he spoke much better.
388
Or, that conversation was a breakthrough in our relationship because it changed things in a good way.
389
We also used the word accountable when we talked about friends and support.
390
Yes, accountable means responsible for your actions.
391
You feel like you have to show what you did.
392
For example, I feel more accountable when I study with a friend because you don't want to disappear or be lazy.
393
Or my study group helps me stay accountable means they help you keep your promises.
394
And then there's the word mentor.
395
I really love this one.
396
A mentor is a person who guides you and helps you grow like a wise friend or teacher.
397
You can say, My English teacher became my mentor and helped me in difficult times.
398
Or, I'm looking for a mentor in my career means you want someone more experienced to guide you.
399
We also said milestone when we talked about celebrating small wins.
400
A milestone is an important step or event in your journey.
401
It's like a special point on your road.
402
For example, finishing my first English book was a big milestone for me.
403
Or listening to a full English podcast is a milestone in your listening journey.
404
Then we use the word detour when we talked about your life path.
405
A detour is a different or longer way you take when the normal road is blocked.
406
You can say, His career had many detours, but each one taught him something new.
407
Or, I took a detour and studied something different for a few years, meaning you didn't follow the direct path.
408
There was also a feeling word, goosebumps.
409
Goosebumps are small bumps on your skin when you feel a strong emotion, like fear, excitement, or deep inspiration.
410
For example, her story gave me goosebumps.
411
It was so powerful.
412
Or I get goosebumps when I listen to this song because it touches your heart.
413
Another important word was perspective.
414
Perspective is the way you see or understand something, your view of a situation.
415
You can say, talking to my grandmother gave me a new perspective on life, meaning you saw things in a different way.
416
Or, when I travel, my perspective changes, because you see new cultures and ideas.
417
We also said autopilot, when life feels automatic.
418
Autopilot is when you do things without thinking, just habit, no real feeling.
419
For example, he was living on autopilot, just waking up, going to work, and sleeping again.
420
Or, I don't want to live on autopilot anymore means you want to be more awake and present in your life.
421
And the last word… Is crossroads.
422
A crossroads is a point in life where you must make an important decision, like when roads cross and you have to choose a direction.
423
You can say, she felt she was at a crossroads.
424
Should she stay at her job or start something new?
425
Or, I'm at a crossroads with my English.
426
Should I give up?
427
Or try again with a new plan?
428
If you didn't catch every word, it's OK.
429
You can listen to this part again, slowly, like a mini-lesson.
430
And if you want a small challenge, choose one of these words and make your own sentence.
431
You can say it quietly in your head.
432
Or be brave and write it in the comments.
433
That's like sending your English brain to the gym.
434
But a calm gym.
435
Yeah, a small, friendly gym where everyone is learning together, step by step.
436
And, if you're still here with us at the end of this episode, we just want to say we're proud of you.
437
Really, we are.
438
Whether you feel lost, are slowly finding your way, or already walking on a new path.
439
You showed up today, and that counts.
440
Yes.
441
And if this episode helped you, tap like, subscribe, and share it with someone who maybe feels a little lost right now.
442
Thank you for spending this time with us.
443
This is Ana.
444
And this is Jake.
445
And you've been listening to the English Leap Podcast.
446
Stay kind to yourself.
447
And keep going.
448
One small, gentle step at a time.
