Have you been feeling overly worried lately? Thinking too much? Well… 平常心. Keep a calm heart, and let things go the way they’re meant to. Things will work out. My dad taught me this life wisdom, and I hope it helps you find some peace—just as it has helped me.

In this episode, you’ll also practice advanced Taiwanese Mandarin through a real, meaningful conversation. Many of you have shared that you want to engage in deeper conversations with your Taiwanese family. The truth is, they often use specific expressions and vocabulary that aren’t usually taught in textbooks.

Two materials I recommend for further learning (progress from intermediate to advanced level):

• Study the vocabulary using the transcripts (zhuyin, pinyin, and English)
• Level Up & Connect to Taiwan Complete Program

I’ve added a Premier Coaching (6 months) option to all of my courses. Now with this Coaching option, you can practice Taiwanese Mandarin directly with me.
