E199: ?️ Welcome to another episode of The English Like a Native Podcast, with me, your host, Anna! Today I am joined by my lovely guest Bree from Into the Story Podcast, and together we delve into the complexities of fear, anxiety, and phobias. ? We share personal experiences related to irrational fears, such as a fear of wet teabags and a fear of drains in swimming pools, which were influenced by past experiences and exposure to certain stimuli. We also discuss the impact of storytelling on emotions and how certain things can leave lasting impressions and fears.? Finally, we reflect on fear in language learning and how it can prevent us from reaching our goals. So, tune in for insightful discussions and practical insights on facing fears head-on!
