Lindie Botes | Burnout, and why I'm not setting language goals for 2022 @LindieBotes | Uploaded December 2021 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
A bit of a more serious video today! It's the end of another rough year, and I am sure a few other people are also feeling a sense of burnout. Grab a cup of tea and join me in talking about exhaustion, language learning, and why I am not setting language learning goals for next year.

If you're experiencing language burnout, here's a video I made with a friend a while ago discussing the topic at length: youtube.com/watch?v=1bgJ8IQU5TA

EDIT: I am absolutely overwhelmed by the heartwarming, kind and supportive comments, even from those who say they don’t usually comment. Thank you all for understanding and being supportive ! To clarify, i am not stepping away from Youtube or languages, but I am taking a break and might be slower with uploads. Love you all so much! 💖💖💖
