I burned out on my French journey many times because I kept waiting to be perfect. Turns out, waiting for perfection is the fastest way to never improve and constant stress.

After years of freezing mid-conversation, I finally cracked the code: you don't need every word—you need flow, gist, and the courage to be messy. That shift helped me pass the DELF B2 and gain French nationality.

In this video, I'm showing you how to follow fast French without translating every word, what to say when conversations take unexpected turns, and how to keep your stress down so you can stay in the game.

You'll learn:
✅ The exact line that instantly slows a fast speaker without killing the vibe
✅ How to track the gist without understanding every single word
✅ 5 redirect phrases that keep you in control when topics zig-zag
✅ A 90-second pre-conversation reset that drops your stress instantly
✅ How to speak messy NOW without cementing bad habits
✅ The ONE thing without which none of these tools will work

These aren't textbook tactics—they're real conversation survival tools that helped me go from perfectionist freeze to having and passing the French citizenship interview.
