Get Your Reps In


Hello Reader,

I am here to encourage you today to do one thing to practice your English.

Not ten things.

Not five things.

Pick one.

Then do it.

πŸ’‘ Ideas:

  • On your lunch break today, sit with other English speakers, not the folks who speak your first language, and actually engage in the conversation.
  • As soon as you step into your workplace today, greet the first person you see and ask them what they did last night. (Bonus: come prepared to quickly talk about what YOU did last night.)
  • The weekend is close: ask someone at work today what plans they have for the weekend. (Bonus: tell them one thing you'd like to do!)
  • Maybe you have an even better idea! (Do it, ok!)

Just one thing. I dare you.

Hit reply and let me know which one you picked! (And I'd also love to know how it went if you want to share that too!)

Hello Reader, A few weeks ago I read a post on LinkedIn from Ana Canseco β€” a regulated immigration consultant and repeat guest on this podcast β€” about something that's been breaking her heart lately. Clients coming to her on their 11th temporary application. Their complex journey so far? Visitor visas, study permits, PGWP, work permits, back to getting on a visitor visa β€” over and over, for 10 years. Every single one approved. But somehow, they're further from attaining their PR than when...
