We've all been there... You have a long-term GOAL (like becoming fluent in English!), but a short-term TEMPTATION (like watching a movie instead of studying) appears.
What do you do?
This choice is all about DISCIPLINE. And the feeling of achieving your goal is the best REWARD.
Our new podcast episode on Emotional English explores this exact idea with a simple and powerful story called "The Bicycle and the Bank."
It's perfect practice for Pre-Intermediate and Intermediate learners.

In our new podcast episode, we're talking about why this happens and the long-term effects it has on women's lives.
Ladies, this is a conversation we all need to have.

We continue our Reading Cub. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.
What if a dream could lead you to a real treasure?
We meet a young shepherd who has the same powerful dream, twice: a mysterious child leads him to the Egyptian pyramids and promises him a hidden treasure.
He finds an old woman to interpret the dream, but her price is… unusual. She doesn't want his money. She wants one-tenth of a treasure that might not even exist.
Would you make that deal? A promise for a dream?
To hear the full, magical scene and the boy's surprising reaction, you'll have to listen to the episode! This is where the adventure truly begins.

New Podcast Episode is Up!
The Weight of Social Shame
Have you ever felt like you wanted to disappear after saying or doing something in public?
Like… “Why did I say that? Everyone must think I’m so weird...”
That feeling? It’s called social shame — and it’s more common (and more powerful) than we like to admit.
But guess what? You’re not alone.
In this episode, we’re digging into the deep emotional weight of social shame — why it shows up, how it affects our relationships, and what we can do to handle it with more self-compassion.
You’ll learn words like:
Innate – something you’re born with, not learned
Vulnerability – being open to emotional hurt or judgment
Stigma – unfair disapproval by society
Scrutiny – close, detailed attention or inspection
Unwarranted – without reason, not justified
Tap play to explore your emotions, learn real-life English, and become a little more emotionally fluent today.

Episode Introduction:
Hey there! Guess what? Harvard University, that super-famous school we all know, is in big trouble!
The former US President Trump is saying "No more special tax breaks for you!" and has put a freeze on a huge pile of money (we're talking about $2 billion – that's a lot of textbooks! ).
Why? Well, Harvard didn't want to follow some new rules about how they handle student protests and who they hire. It's like when your teacher gives you homework, but you really don't want to do it!
Join us as we figure out what's going on at this famous university and why it matters for all students everywhere!

Episode Introduction:
"What if being happy means having NOTHING? No money, no fancy clothes… not even a house?
Meet the Cynics—the cool rebels of ancient Greece! They lived like superheroes of simplicity:
- Slept in barrels (like human hamsters!).
- Laughed at kings (who needs gold when you’re free?).
- Ate simple food (no pizza deliveries back then… sad!).
They believed: "The less you want, the happier you are!" But were they geniuses… or just the world’s first trolls?
