001: Bienvenidos a Tod@s

  • Summary

  • Welcome to the first episode of 'From Lost To The River'. Soy Richard. I’ve been learning Spanish for 14 years so I know how difficult and challenging it is to communicate in a language that isn't your own.

    I’ve been exactly where you are—feeling frustrated and worried about making mistakes and staying quiet as a result. However, once I let go of perfectionism and stopped being ashamed of my accent, I was able to finally be myself in Spanish.

    In this episode, we’ll talk about how you can shift your mindset, embrace imperfection, and stop letting fear hold you back in your English communication.

    '¿Me recomiendas algún podcast en inglés?' This is the most common question I get asked.
