From the series: “The Woman Behind the Words” Many English learners think they’re struggling with grammar or vocabulary. But what if what’s really collapsing isn’t their English — it’s their sense of self the moment they start speaking? This episode explores what happens when confidence becomes a performance instead of a feeling. It reveals how the body remembers judgment, correction, and pressure — and how those memories quietly shape the way you sound today. You’ll learn: ✨ Why fluent speakers still “freeze” under pressure ✨ How the nervous system protects you by performing ✨ The real difference between sounding confident and feeling confident This isn’t about learning new words. It’s about remembering the part of you that doesn’t need to prove anything to sound natural. 💭 Reflection prompt: When does your voice feel most natural — and when does it start to perform?

Reflection Question for Students When you speak English, which moment feels like “a performance” instead of “you” — and what changes inside your body when that moment begins?

🌿 Mini-Exercise: “When Do You Start Performing?” Duration: 2 minutes Many learners don’t notice the exact moment their English shifts from expression to performance. This exercise helps you catch that moment gently — without judgment. 1. Recall your last English conversation Just one. The moment is enough. Ask yourself: “When did I stop expressing myself — and start performing myself?” Don’t force an answer. Let the moment choose you. 2. Notice the shift in your body Where did you feel it? Your chest? Your shoulders? Your breath? Most people feel the “performance moment” before they hear it. 3. Complete one quiet sentence: “I began performing when I felt… ______.” (This one line often reveals more than weeks of studying.) 4. End with a soft reminder: “My voice doesn’t need to impress. It needs to express.”
