Hey everyone, it's Hadar. Thank you so much for joining me. And today I have something super, super exciting to share with you on the Influency podcast, and it has to do with helping you reach your goals in 2024. But let me back up a little bit first. Let's agree that time flies and I can't believe that it's already September. I cannot believe it. This year has gone by so quickly. At the same time, if I think about January of this year, it seems like it was ages ago. As some of you already know, I relocated to Barcelona in January 2024. So it's been a very, very busy year. And yes, I know I stopped with my relocation diaries, and I promise I will get back to it very soon. So a Life update is coming up soon, I promise. I But here's the thing. It's September, and I know that I've set myself some goals at the beginning of 2024, and now it's September and I'm like, wait a minute, where are my goals and where am I right now? Because I'm very, very far away from where I thought I'd be now, with all the compassion that I have for myself for just living life. And, you know, sometimes not everything goes as planned. I also recognize that I have three more months to make sure that I get the things that I've said to myself I'm going to get still in 2024. And why am I sharing that with you? First of all, because we have another full quarter, even more than that in 2024. And if you're like me and you've set for yourself some English goals in 2024 and you're not there yet, I want to talk about how I can help you achieve those goals this year, whatever your goals are. And this is why I want to tell you about an opportunity that is now open. Not for long. I'm recording this on Friday 13th September. And as I'm recording this, my membership and community beyond is open for enrollment only until September 17th. And I want to tell you today how I believe believe this membership can help you and share more about it so you can make a decision if it's right for you or not. But first, let me tell you what beyond is, and then I'm going to tell you who it is for. Beyond is an English practice membership that will give you all the tools, inspiration and exceptional support to make a positive change in your English and your life. It will help you optimize, organize and energize your English practice so you can finally speak English confidently and joyfully every single day. And I'm going to add, you will be able to reach your goals before the end of 2024. Beyond is for you if you want to improve your fluency and confidence because you want to make stronger connections with people. You believe that overcoming judgment and self doubt and overthinking is critical for you to be able to truly connect with other people. Show up like yourself, be authentic, feel free in English and really genuinely connect with people. And feel comfortable around people when speaking because at the end of the day, speaking requires other people. I know that there are a lot of AI solutions and you can speak to a lot of robots and then there's no insecurity there. You probably don't care about what the robot thinks about you, because they don't. But you might care about what other people think about you. And building that skill, that confidence is so important not just in English, but in life. So if you want to build stronger connections and build fluency and confidence for that, beyond is for you. Beyond is also for you if you want to improve your English for professional reasons. So if you're a professional working in English or looking to work in English and you want to improve the way you communicate in meetings, how you present things, how you negotiate your salary or your position, beyond is for you. It's going to help you level up your English and help you make it shine so that you can shine in the workplace. And beyond is also for you if you're a business owner and you know that for you to be able to develop a global business, you need to build authority and we do that with language and to sound clear and confident. And for you to be able to expand your network and to show up online or in front of people, you need to be able to speak clearly, to be confident and to be fluent in English. And beyond is going to help you do just that, build confidence. Showing up on video, speaking to people and talking about your business. So if you're a business owner or an entrepreneur, vyond is definitely for you. Now how do we do that? Beyond works so well because of three main reasons. Coaching, community and practice. So first, let's talk about coaching. First, you're going to get to work with me quite a lot. I do a lot of one on one coaching in a group setting. We call it hot seats about mindset, fluency, pronunciation and so much more. But it's not just me. We have a lot of incredible coaches who will teach you valuable grammar lessons, vocabulary lessons, shadowing, listening, writing, writing, speech analysis, reading comprehension, debate, acting, improv classes, and so much more. The idea is to offer you English immersion in the variety of lessons that you just get to choose from. And here's the thing, we use a very specific method in our lessons called the pronunciation confidence method that I developed that will really help you remember key elements. Now, it's not a methodical course. The lessons that we offer tackle common challenges of non native speakers and we do it in a way that makes it easy and practical. I forgot to say that we also have real life English classes where we do a lot of role play, helping you build confidence in everyday situations. So all of that is available throughout the month. In addition to that, we also have monthly themes. So in addition to the English classes, we have special workshops every single month designed to help you develop personally and professionally. So for example, in August we had public speaking. In September we have productivity and time management. October is all about creativity. November is about business, English and career development. So as you can see, every month we have additional content. Content designed to offer you more things that are not just about English, but are in English and will help you develop and thrive. So that is the first part, the coaching, the actual lessons. In addition, what makes beyond work is practice. We understand that in order for you to be able to show up, you need to build consistent habits. For that, we created an app that makes it easy for you to consume content, come back to it, engage with it, and learn with it. So the platform that we recently developed, so we have our own app, which is super exciting by the way, is going to help you consume the content in an easy way, engage in activities and more. So I know it sounds like something technical, but I know that the platform you use and the learning experience needs to be seamless and clear because if there is friction, you might avoid practicing, you'll be confused, and when you feel confused and overwhelmed, you avoid. And when you avoid, you don't stick to your practice. So first of all, the learning environment and the way the platform is designed is going to help you stay on track. But also we have two things that will keep you on track. One is our daily sprints that are designed to give you a 10 minute effective practice to boost your pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. And simply by showing up every single day and doing that is going to keep you on track. So you have a different sprint every single weekday. And that alone, honestly, is worth the entire price of the membership. I have to tell you, because it's really so easy to just do that. And then not only it improves your English, but it also keeps your habit and English a part of your life. And the next thing is our success path. We show you exactly how to improve by offering you our speaking success path and very clear daily, weekly and monthly actions that you need to take to move up the success path. So this is why practice is a huge part of beyond. And, and we make it easy for you to practice consistently and to actually enjoy it and to not feel like it's a burden. Sometimes we feel like building habits is like, ugh, you know, something that you have to work really hard for. But because we work hard at making it fun for you, it's not gonna be hard, it's gonna be exciting. And the outcome is going to be developing strong habits. The last thing that makes beyond so special and what it is and so effective is our community. So first of all, the platform allows you to connect with people who have the same interests as you, in the same speaking stage as you, and even other students from your own country. So you can interact with them, you can text each other and there is a very lively feed where people interact. We have challenges activities, you can post videos. So there is a lot going on in terms of the community. We also have a lot of conversation groups. Every day you have many different options for conversation groups led by members. And you can connect with others, speak in small groups, one on one. And that is probably the best feature of beyond the Community and how people connect and interact and practice. Because you have to practice, it's not enough to learn with a coach, you have to put it into practice with other people. And our community and platform allow you to do that. It's so important to remember that if you want to build habits and if you want to use the language confidently, you need to be in an environment that is non judgmental, that inspires you, that keeps you intrigued and allows you to thrive. And I believe that beyond can offer you all of that. So to sum it up, what makes beyond work is the coaching, practice and community. Beyond is a monthly membership. So if you want to join, you can join and cancel after a month if it's not right for you. So there's no risk really. We also have a special offer for people who want to join for six months, six. Still, you can cancel at any time. So there is no risk at joining. And if you feel like it might be a good fit for you, I really want to invite you into beyond.
