(6 min) How to Speak English with Confidence | with Alba Guerrero

Most Spanish professionals already know English. Speaking it confidently is another story. Perfectionism, fear of mistakes, and the pressure to "sound correct" can make even simple conversations feel stressful.

In this six-minute conversation, I talk with English teacher Alba Guerrero González about why fluency matters more than perfection and how to overcome the fear of speaking English. We explore the real reasons Spanish learners hold themselves back, why mistakes are essential for growth, and how to build English confidence through connection instead of correctness.

This is Speak English with Confidence, previously 'From Lost to the River', a podcast about language, identity, and what it really takes to speak with confidence.
