6: Everyone loves to hate on "should" — and other words (with Elise Aabakken)

Words, like all living things, evolve. Which means they also branch away from each other and sometimes you have to look at a word from multiple angles, and in multiple languages, to get a full picture of what it means and the effect it has on those of us who speak it.

In this episode I'm joined by Elise Aabakken — who is a coach, a dancer, an artist, and performer at Disneyland Paris, and a speaker of many languages.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why everyone loves to hate on "should." Is this something we should get on board with or re-examine?

  • One word that might serve us better than lusting after "confidence"

  • The difference between "want" and "desire" and which one you might want to aim for.

Your words should empower you. Learn how in today’s podcast!

Should, auxiliary verb

—used in auxiliary function to express futurity from a point of view in the past
