In this episode, I share a moment I had during a dinner in Monterrey where I suddenly realised I’d stopped consciously thinking about speaking Spanish. Instead of translating or checking my words, I was simply part of the conversation, joking, listening, and reacting naturally. It reminded me that true fluency isn’t about perfection, but about the language becoming an effortless part of you.I also reflect on the difficult stages of language learning, drawing from my recent struggles with Mandarin and Malay. Even when speaking feels exhausting and unnatural, those moments are part of the journey. If you keep going long enough, one day you may suddenly realise you’ve forgotten you’re even speaking your target language at all.If you need one-on-one language guidance, schedule a consultation session with me at languagehacking.com/chat.And don’t forget to check out the Fluent in 3 Months Bootcamp here!Or you can follow me on all Social Media channels:Follow my Spanish InstagramInstagram: @irishpolyglotThread: @irishpolyglotTikTok: @irishpolyglot
