#05 Lost in Translation: My Linguistic Journey & Hilarious Missteps
When you can’t get your point across, isn’t it frustrating? As a visual thinker, words don’t always come easily, and in this episode, I’m diving into the struggles of communication. When you mix up words like “kidding” and “killing,” things get a little awkward. When you grow up speaking multiple languages, it’s a whole different challenge. From asking when the plane will “crash” to learning how to juggle multiple languages, I’m sharing my funniest language mix-ups and reflecting on how thinking in pictures shapes my world. Let’s talk about the ups, downs, and laughs of being both a visual and verbal thinker—and I’d love to hear your stories too!
