Grace & Space is for…Learners Struggling With Anxiety or Fear of Mistakes

In this episode, I talk about how Grace and Space is designed for language learners who struggle with anxiety and fear of making mistakes. I share why these feelings are normal but don’t have to hold you back, and how gentle, consistent practice can help you build confidence. I also introduce the new speed language swaps at this year’s Grace and Space event, a safe and supportive way to practice speaking without judgment. If language anxiety is something you face, this episode is for you.---**GRACE & SPACE TICKETS**🥰 Grace & Space tickets: https://lindsaydoeslanguages.com/graceandspace **GET STARTED FOR FREE**🎁 Free Video Training - How to Finally Learn That Language: https://lindsaydoeslanguages.com/freevideo 🎁 Free Ultimate Language Resource List: https://lindsaydoeslanguages.com/list---**WORK WITH LINDSAY**💛 Language Life - Speak fearlessly, trust your language gut & master your process: https://lindsaydoeslanguages.com/ll💬 Speak 28x28 Challenge - 4 weeks to speaking confidence.
