Hey there, Aubrey.
How's it going? I'm great. How are you, Lindsay?
Yeah, really good. We're actually recording this in December. Aubrey, have you had any experiences lately where you just paused to soak it in? You know, you just absorbed?
Yes. I feel like those moments do happen around the holidays. And the other day I had wrapped some presents and the twins, I have a son and a daughter who are both 11, they're twins. And they were kind of organizing the presents and categorizing everyone, seeing who had how many. But then I was watching them and they just stopped and they both were kind of just staring at the tree, the Christmas tree with the ornaments and the lights.
It's so sweet. Yes.
I'm trying to, I think one of them kind of put their arm around the other one and that doesn't happen that much anymore. So I did, I just kind of paused to soak in that feeling. I'm like, oh, it's not going to last forever.
I'm imagining Christmas carols on in the background, the perfect scene.
Absolutely. I love it.
I love it. Amazing. So clearly when you pause to soak it in, it's a, it's a joyful or like awestricken moment kind of. Right.
Absolutely. Right. When it's almost like there's so much emotion that you want to take a moment to enjoy it, to appreciate it.
That's amazing. That's so great. That's what life is about. Right. And you want to be able to talk about it because when we talk about those moments, that builds connection.
Absolutely. Right. If you can ask someone about these moments, a time they pause to soak it all in. Absolutely. That's a great way to connect. But this is interesting. This is part two of a series. For part one, we talked about the meanings of take in. There are several in English. Stay to the end and we'll share details if you missed that episode. But we promise to follow up with part two with other ways to say take it in or take it all in. Meaning, you know, to understand something completely or to really appreciate the importance of something.
Yes, I'm excited. I'm excited to get into this. There's so many things in life we could take in and to be able to have words for it is huge. So guys, if you love these series that we're doing, go ahead and hit the follow button. Or if you just love our philosophy of connection, not perfection, we're going to find for you the moment of connection in everything we're teaching and show you how to do it, right? So we can have better relationships, better friendships, better business relationships in our lives.
Yes, that's definitely the best way to take it all in when it comes to this podcast. Make sure that you follow so that you're not missing episodes.
Exactly. So let's get right into it. The first one I asked you at the very top, let's make sure we define that for our listeners. Soak it in, Aubrey.
Yeah. So this means to really take that time to appreciate something, to understand something, to really value how important or how meaningful something is.
How can you improve your English fluency level?
