Wed, 17 Jun 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Do you ever freeze when speaking English?

Maybe you know exactly what you want to say, but the words won't come out. Maybe you overthink every sentence, worry about making mistakes, or feel nervous speaking in meetings, presentations, or everyday conversations.

In this inspiring episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, Curtis Davies sits down with Edit B. Kissโ€”holistic mentor, trauma healing specialist, international speaker, best-selling author, and former petroleum engineerโ€”to explore the deeper reasons why confidence can disappear when we need it most.

Edit shares her incredible journey from working as a petroleum engineer around the world to becoming a successful holistic therapist and mindset coach in London, helping hundreds of people overcome anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, and self-limiting beliefs.

Together, they discuss the surprising connection between confidence, communication, unresolved emotional experiences, and language learning.

Whether you're learning English, building your career, or simply trying to express yourself more confidently, this episode will give you powerful insights and practical strategies you can start using immediately.


๐Ÿ”‘ In This Episode You'll Learn:

โœ… Why confidence is often an emotional issueโ€”not a language issue

โœ… The hidden reasons people freeze during conversations and presentations

โœ… How childhood experiences can affect communication skills later in life

โœ… Why practice alone isn't always enough to build speaking confidence

โœ… How Edit overcame her fear of public speaking and improvisation

โœ… The importance of discovering your "why" when learning English

โœ… Why immersion and real-world communication accelerate fluency

โœ… How to stop overthinking and start speaking more naturally

โœ… Practical confidence-building techniques for English learners

Wed, 10 Jun 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Do confident professionals communicate differently?

The answer is yes โ€” and the good news is that confidence isn't something you're born with. It's something you build.

In this episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, Curtis sits down with communication expert, voice actor, broadcaster, speaker, and author David Tyler, creator of the book Connect: A Field Guide for Master Communicators.

With more than 40 years of experience helping people communicate effectively, David shares the 10 communication habits of confident communicatorsย and explains how anyone can develop them โ€” including English learners, business professionals, managers, entrepreneurs, and leaders.

If you've ever struggled with speaking confidently in meetings, presentations, interviews, networking events, or everyday conversations, this episode will give you practical tools you can start using immediately.

You'll also learn why connection is more important than perfection, how to make people feel heard and valued, and why the world's best communicators focus on serving their audience instead of impressing them.


In This Episode You'll Learn:

โœ… The 10 communication habits confident communicators use every day

โœ… Why listening is often more powerful than speaking

โœ… How asking better questions creates stronger connections

โœ… Why silence is one of the most underrated communication tools

โœ… How to overcome the fear of making mistakes

โœ… Why confidence is built through practice, not talent

โœ… The importance of making others feel seen, heard, and understood

โœ… David's "Seven Colors of the Voice" framework for becoming a more engaging speaker

โœ… How communication skills can improve your career, relationships, and personal growth


Key Takeaway

"Most people think confidence is something you are born with or find. In reality, confidence is something you create โ€” one conversation at a time." โ€” David Tyler

Whether you're learning English, building your career, leading a team, or simply wanting to communicate more effectively, these habits can help you become a more confident and impactful communicator.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธHow To Build Real English Speaking Confidence, & Stop Doubting Yourself in Business English & Real Life with John Kundly | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 03 Jun 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Do you ever feel like you're capable of more, but something is holding you back?

Many English learners struggle with confidence. They know more English than they think they do, but fear, self-doubt, overthinking, and the fear of making mistakes stop them from speaking naturally and expressing themselves fully.

In this inspiring episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, Curtis sits down with educator, TEDx speaker, author, professional speaker, engineer, and corporate executive John Kundly to discuss confidence, communication, personal growth, purpose, and how to move forward even when you don't feel ready.

John shares his remarkable journey from a small town in Ohio to becoming a successful corporate executive, TEDx speaker, and authorโ€”including a period when he was homeless and living in his car after moving to Los Angeles.

Together, Curtis and John explore why confidence isn't something you wait forโ€”it's something you build through action.

If you've ever struggled with speaking English confidently, experienced imposter syndrome, felt stuck in your career, or wondered how to create better opportunities for yourself, this conversation is packed with practical insights and inspiration.


In This Episode You'll Learn:

โœ… Why action comes before confidence

โœ… How English learners can overcome fear when speaking

โœ… Why confidence and fluency are not the same thing

โœ… The "Evidence & Exposure" formula for building confidence

โœ… How to overcome self-doubt and imposter syndrome

โœ… Why successful people still struggle with confidence

โœ… How setbacks and detours can become life-changing opportunities

โœ… The difference between goals and purpose

โœ… Communication skills that separate average professionals from exceptional professionals

โœ… How to build a strong professional network and find mentors

โœ… Why comparison destroys confidence and what to focus on instead

โœ… Practical advice for English learners who want to create better opportunities in life and work

"Don't wait until you feel ready to use your voice. Use your voice to get ready."

๐ŸŽ™๏ธPt. #6 Of 6 How to Master the PlotWeaver Parallel Plot Pattern for Business English with Curtis Davies, Mod Hob Matt & Maryam Shoja | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 20 May 2026 10:30:00 +0000

What happens when three completely different life journeys collide around the same global challenge?

In the final episode of our 6-part Plot Pattern series, Curtis Davies is joined once again by co-host Matt Gardner (Mod Hob Matt) โ€” along with special guest Maryam Shoja, co-founder of the Mod Hob Cooperative โ€” to explore one of the most advanced storytelling frameworks yet: the Parallel Plot Pattern.

This episode goes far beyond storytelling.

Together, Curtis, Matt, and Maryam trace their individual experiences from the turn of the millennium (Y2K) through the evolution of technology, communication, media, education, and AI โ€” showing how seemingly separate lives can converge around shared challenges and common purpose.

From encyclopedias and VHS tapesโ€ฆ to smartphones, social media, and artificial intelligenceโ€ฆ this conversation explores how technology has transformed the way we learn, teach, connect, and think.

But the deeper question remains:

๐Ÿ‘‰ As AI makes everything faster and easierโ€ฆ are we losing the friction that helps us truly learn?

โœจ In This Episode, You'll Learn

๐ŸŽญ What the Parallel Plot Pattern is โ€” and why it's one of the most powerful storytelling structures
๐ŸŒ How three different life journeys across Canada, Iran, Malaysia, and Mexico intersect through shared global change
๐Ÿ“ฑ The evolution from analog to digital culture โ€” from flip phones and VHS to AI and smartphones
๐Ÿง  Why "friction" and discomfort are essential for deep learning and memory retention
๐Ÿค– The opportunities and dangers of AI in education and communication
๐Ÿ’ฌ Why human connection still matters in language learning
๐Ÿ“š How technology changed the way we study, teach, consume media, and build relationships
โš–๏ธ The importance of balancing digital tools with real-world human interaction
๐Ÿ”„ How systems thinking helps us understand how everything is connected

๐Ÿ’ก Key Insight from This Episode

"If learning becomes too easy, we risk losing the depth, challenge, and reflection that create real growth."

โ€” Real English Conversations Podcast

๐ŸŒ Why This Episode Matters

The Parallel Plot Pattern helps us understand that no one exists in isolation.

Every person experiences the world differentlyโ€ฆ
but our stories still intersect through shared systems, technologies, conflicts, and cultural shifts.

This framework teaches us to:
โ€ข See multiple perspectives at once
โ€ข Understand how systems influence people
โ€ข Think critically about technology and communication
โ€ข Recognize the value of human connection in a digital world

As AI and automation continue to reshape society, this episode reminds us that meaningful learning still requires:
โœจ curiosity
โœจ challenge
โœจ reflection
โœจ human connection

๐ŸŽ™๏ธPt. #5 Of 6 How to Master the PlotWeaver Monomyth Plot Pattern for Business English with Curtis Davies & Mod Hob Matt | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 13 May 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Why do so many English learners struggle with perfectionism, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome โ€” even when they're improving?

In Part 5 of our 6-part Plot Pattern series, Curtis Davies is joined again by co-host Matt Gardner (Mod Hob Matt) to explore one of the most powerful storytelling and personal growth frameworks ever created:

The Monomyth Plot Pattern โ€” also known as The Hero's Journey.

This episode goes far beyond storytelling.

Curtis and Matt break down how the Hero's Journey mirrors the real-life experience of learning English, building confidence, overcoming fear, and pushing through the uncomfortable stages of growth.

If you've ever:
โ€ข felt embarrassed making mistakes
โ€ข doubted your English abilities
โ€ข struggled with perfectionism
โ€ข or felt stuck in your progressโ€ฆ

This episode will completely change how you view the learning process.

โœจ In This Episode, You'll Learn

๐ŸŽฏ The 5 major stages of the Monomyth / Hero's Journey
๐Ÿง  Why perfectionism is one of the biggest barriers to fluency
๐Ÿ’ฌ How imposter syndrome affects language learners
๐Ÿ“‰ The connection between ADHD, confidence, and communication struggles
๐Ÿ”ฅ Why growth only happens outside your comfort zone
๐ŸŽต How mistakes in music, storytelling, and creativity often lead to breakthroughs
๐Ÿ“š The connection between the Dunning-Kruger Effect and language learning
๐Ÿ’ก Why "mistakes" are actually part of the mastery process
๐Ÿš€ How to build resilience and confidence through real communication practice

๐Ÿ’ก Key Insight from This Episode

"Your mistakes are not proof that you're failing โ€” they are proof that you're growing."

โ€” Real English Conversations Podcast

๐ŸŒ Why This Episode Matters

The Monomyth teaches us that every learner goes through the same cycle:

Comfort โ†’ Challenge โ†’ Self-Doubt โ†’ Breakthrough โ†’ Transformation

This applies directly to:
โ€ข Learning English confidently
โ€ข Public speaking
โ€ข Professional communication
โ€ข ADHD learning challenges
โ€ข Building resilience
โ€ข Overcoming perfectionism
โ€ข Becoming a stronger communicator

The goal is not perfection.

The goal is transformation.

And sometimes the biggest breakthrough happens right after the moment you feel like giving up.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธPt. #4 Of 6 How to Master the PlotWeaver Circular Plot Pattern for Business English with Curtis Davies & Mod Hob Matt | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 06 May 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Why do so many professionals feel stuck in their English progress, even when they're practicing consistently every day?

In Part 4 of our 6-part Plot Pattern series, Curtis Davies is joined by co-host Matt Gardner (Mod Hob Matt) to explore one of the most practical and powerful frameworks yet: the Circular Plot Pattern.

This episode reveals why progress in English (and in life) isn't about pushing harder โ€” it's about creating balance, adapting to disruption, and building confidence through consistent routines.

If you've ever felt like you're doing "everything right" but still not improvingโ€ฆ this episode will show you what's missing.

Together, Curtis and Matt break down how routines, setbacks, and mindset shifts all work together in a cycle, and how mastering this pattern can help you communicate more clearly, stay calm under pressure, and continue improving without burnout.


โœจ In This Episode, You'll Learn

๐ŸŽฏ The 4 key stages of the Circular Plot Pattern (and how they apply to language learning)
๐Ÿ”„ Why consistency alone isn't enough โ€” and what actually drives progress
๐Ÿง  How to handle disruptions like mistakes, anxiety, or unexpected situations
๐Ÿ’ฌ The role of active listening and confidence in real communication
๐Ÿ“‰ Why "working harder" can actually slow your progress
๐Ÿ“ˆ How to build habits that improve your English step by step
๐Ÿง˜ Practical strategies (like meditation & mindset shifts) to stay calm and focused
๐Ÿ’ก How to create backup plans (Plan B / contingency plans) in real conversations


๐Ÿ’ก Key Insight from This Episode

"Progress doesn't come from doing more โ€” it comes from adapting, reflecting, and returning stronger."

โ€” Real English Conversations Podcast


๐ŸŒ Why This Episode Matters

The Circular Plot Pattern teaches us that growth is not linear.

It's a cycle:
You build a routine โ†’ face disruption โ†’ adapt โ†’ return stronger.

This applies directly to:
โ€ข Speaking English in real-life situations
โ€ข Handling mistakes and pressure
โ€ข Building confidence over time
โ€ข Staying consistent without burnout

If you want to stop feeling stuck and start feeling in control of your Englishโ€ฆ this framework is a game changer.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธPt. #3 Of 6 How to Master the PlotWeaver Non-Linear Plot Pattern for Business English with Curtis Davies & Mod Hob Matt | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 22 Apr 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Why do smart professionals struggle to explain complex ideas clearly in English?

It's not because the ideas are too complicatedโ€ฆ
It's because they don't know how to connect them.

In this episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, the show that helps global professionals speak clearly and confidently at work, host Curtis Davies is joined once again by co-host Matt Gardner (Mod Hob Matt) to break down Plot Pattern #3: The Non-Linear Method.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed trying to explain data, trends, or multiple ideas in English โ€” or worried that your message feels scattered or unclear โ€” this episode is for you.

Together, Curtis and Matt explore how real-world communication is often non-linear โ€” especially in business, strategy, and problem-solving situations.

Building on the previous episodes (The Inverted Plot Pattern and The Frame Tale Method), you'll learn how to take disconnected ideas and turn them into a clear, powerful message that makes sense to your audience.

At the core of this episode is a powerful mindset shift:
Great communicators don't just share information โ€” they connect the dots.


โœจ In This Episode, You'll Learn

๐ŸŽฏ What the Non-Linear Plot Pattern is and why it's essential in real-world communication
๐Ÿง  How to connect multiple ideas, trends, or data points into one clear message
๐Ÿ’ฌ How to explain complex topics in meetings, presentations, and interviews
๐Ÿ“Š How professionals use this in strategy, marketing, and data analysis
๐Ÿงฉ Why communication isn't always a straight line โ€” and how to manage that
๐Ÿ”ฅ How to turn confusion into clarity by finding "the intersection"


๐Ÿ’ก Key Insight from This Episode

"Truth isn't always a straight line โ€” it's a pattern waiting to be connected."

โ€” Mod Hob Matt Gardner


This episode is perfect for professionals who need to communicate complex ideas clearly โ€” especially in fast-paced, high-level environments where clarity and confidence matter most.

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 10:30:00 +0000

What does it take to stay mentally strong when your job exposes you to the worst moments of human life?

In this week's episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, the show that helps global professionals speak clearly and confidently at work, host Curtis Davies sits down withย Craig Semple, a former homicide detective turned mental health educator and resilience expert.

Craig spent 25 years with the New South Wales Police Force, investigating serious crimes including homicides and organized crime. After being medically retired due to psychological injury, he was forced to confront the realities of mental health, not as an observer, but personally.

Today, Craig is the founding director of Mentality Plus, where he delivers mental health, wellbeing, and resilience education to individuals and organizations across Australia. He is also an ambassador for the Black Dog Institute and has helped tens of thousands of people better understand mental health and how to recover from adversity.

He is also the author of two powerful books:
The Cop Who Fell to Earth and
Getting Back Up Again โ€“ A Plan to Get Your Head Back in the Game

In this conversation, Curtis and Craig explore resilience, mental health, leadership under pressure, and what it really takes to rebuild your mindset after life knocks you down.

This episode is especially valuable for global professionals dealing with stress, pressure, or major life challenges โ€” and for anyone who wants to build stronger communication and mental resilience in their personal and professional life.


โœจ In This Episode, You'll Learn

๐Ÿง  What years of working as a homicide detective taught Craig about human behavior
๐Ÿ’ฌ How mental health was viewed in high-pressure professional environments
โš ๏ธ The turning point that led to Craig's psychological injury and career transition
๐Ÿ’ช What real resilience looks like, beyond motivation and "staying strong."
๐Ÿ“˜ Key lessons from his book Getting Back Up Again
๐ŸŒ Common misconceptions about mental health and recovery
๐Ÿค How leaders can better support mental health in their teams
๐Ÿ”ฅ A practical mindset shift to help you stay mentally strong and communicate with more confidence


๐Ÿ’ก Guest Insight

"Resilience isn't about avoiding adversity โ€” it's about learning how to get back up again."

โ€” Craig Semple


This episode is powerful, honest, and deeply practical โ€” a reminder that mental strength is something we build, not something we're born with.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธReal Business English Communication Strategies with Maryam Shoja & Matt Gardner | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 04 Mar 2026 11:30:00 +0000

In this week's episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, the show that helps global professionals speak clearly and confidently at work, host Curtis Davies welcomes two innovative creators who are transforming how we think about learning, collaboration, and communication.

Joining the show are Maryam Shoja and old high school buddy Matt Gardner, the founding partners behind Mod Hob Cooperative & PlotWeaver: Cards of Creationย โ€” a creator-led producers' cooperative building practical, regenerative systems for learning, collaboration, and community resilience.

Mod Hob (short for Modern Hobbies) brings together educators, designers, technologists, and artists to design systems that replace extractive work with cooperative intelligence โ€” treating people as co-creators rather than users, customers, or resources.

In this conversation, we explore their philosophy, their design process, and how their collaborative storytelling system helps individuals and teams think more clearly, communicate with empathy, and create shared meaning.

Maryam is a Learning Systems Designer, educator, strategist, and English Language coach with 16+ years of experience designing inclusive and neurodivergent-friendly learning environments. Matt went to high school with Curtis & is a user-centered product design strategist, UX researcher, and systems thinker with 20+ years of experience helping cross-functional teams turn complexity into clarity.

Together, they are building tools that make systems thinking, emotional intelligence, and creative collaboration accessible to everyday people โ€” from classrooms to corporate teams.

This episode is especially powerful for educators, leaders, language learners, and global professionals who rely on English to collaborate, present ideas, and build strong relationships at work.


โœจ In this episode, you'll learn:

๐ŸŽจ What a "creator-led producers cooperative" really means โ€” and why it matters in today's world
๐Ÿง  How systems thinking can improve communication and collaboration
๐ŸŒฑ Why inclusivity and neurodivergent-friendly design are essential in modern learning environments
๐Ÿค How structured storytelling strengthens empathy and team alignment
๐Ÿซ How educators and trainers can integrate collaborative storytelling into their classrooms
๐Ÿ’ฌ How storytelling helps global professionals build clarity and confidence in English
๐Ÿ’ซ A transformational moment that demonstrates the real power of creative collaboration
๐Ÿ”ฅ One simple practice you can start using today to communicate more meaningfully and confidently in your personal and professional life

This episode is reflective, creative, and deeply practical โ€” a reminder that effective communication isn't just about vocabulary or grammar. It's about connection, shared understanding, and intentional collaboration.

If you're a global professional working in Englishโ€ฆ
If you lead teams or design learning experiencesโ€ฆ
If you want to communicate with greater empathy, clarity, and creativityโ€ฆ

This conversation will expand the way you think about language and leadership.

๐ŸŽ™๏ธBusiness English, Online Safety, & Security with Curtis Davies & Robert Siciliano | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global Professionals


Wed, 25 Feb 2026 11:30:00 +0000

In this week's episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, the show that helps global professionals speak clearly and confidently at work, host Curtis Davies sits down with Robert Siciliano, one of the world's leading Cybersecurity Awareness experts and a trusted voice on how AI is reshaping communication, trust, and leadership.

Robert is a "good guy" hacker, international speaker, and the creator of The Strategic Human Firewallโ„ข. As CEO of ProtectNowLLC.com, he trains organizations to treat personal and digital security like preventative medicine, not damage control. His work has been featured on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, The Today Show, and in Entrepreneur Magazine, where he's known for breaking down complex cyber threats into clear, practical actions anyone can understand.

In this powerful conversation, Robert explains why the biggest communication risk today isn't language โ€” it's Digital Deception.

As AI-powered deepfakes, voice cloning, and social engineering attacks become more sophisticated, global professionals are being targeted not because of weak technology โ€” but because of human psychology. Our natural instinct to trust familiar voices, emails, and authority signals is now being exploited at scale.

This episode is essential listening for professionals who work across borders, manage teams, handle sensitive information, or want to communicate with confidence, authority, and security in a digital-first world.


โœจ In this episode, you'll learn:

๐Ÿง  Why Digital Deception is now a bigger risk than language barriers
๐Ÿค– How AI-driven deepfakes and voice cloning exploit our natural instinct to trust
๐ŸŽฏ What Robert calls "The Human Blindspotโ„ข" โ€” and why smart leaders fall for scams
๐Ÿ’ฌ The communication mistakes that make professionals vulnerable to social engineering
๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ How to communicate authority while verifying identity without damaging rapport
๐ŸŒ Why cybersecurity is now a leadership skill, not just an IT responsibility
๐Ÿ’Š How to treat digital security like preventative medicine with simple daily habits
๐Ÿšจ The newest AI-powered threats global professionals should be aware of right now
๐Ÿ”‘ The most important mindset shift professionals must make to protect themselves and their teams

This episode is eye-opening, practical, and highly relevant โ€” especially for professionals who rely on English to lead, negotiate, and make decisions in high-stakes digital environments.

He is a voice of resilience, courage, and purpose โ€” and this conversation will leave you inspired to look at your life in a whole new way.

Wed, 03 Sep 2025 10:30:00 +0000

In this episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, host Curtis Davies speaks with Kyle Morse, Master NLP Practitioner, Master Success Coach, and Founder of Overcome Beliefs. Kyle helps people rewire their identity, disrupt limiting patterns, and step into their most confident, aligned selves.

Today, he guides clients across the globe through breakthroughs that unlock confidence, discipline, emotional mastery, and true leadership.


โœจ In this episode, Kyle shares:

๐Ÿง  What it means to "rewire your identity" and why it's key to transformation

๐ŸŽ™๏ธFlight Attendant to Nursing Student with My Niece Hillary Davies | Real English Conversations Podcast for Global professionals


Wed, 13 Aug 2025 11:30:00 +0000

In this very special episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, I'm joined by my niece, Hillary Davies, a full-time flight attendant, third-year nursing student, and passionate traveler who speaks English, French, and Italian.

Born in Kamloops, BC, and currently splitting her time between Victoria, BC, and Montreal, QC, Hillary has lived a life full of adventure. She's been to 20 countries, worked in both Italy and Australia, and learned Italian to a business level mostly through listening and immersion. She's also adapted her French from "France French" to the unique Quebecois dialect she uses every day at work.

In our conversation, Hillary shares:
โœˆ๏ธ Memorable stories from traveling to 20 countries and working abroad
๐Ÿ›ซ The unexpected joys and challenges of life as a flight attendant
๐Ÿ—ฃ How learning French and Italian changed the way she connects with people
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น Tips for learning a new language through immersion and listening
๐Ÿ˜‚ Funny and confusing moments navigating Quebecois French
๐Ÿ’ก Real-life examples where language skills made a big difference
๐Ÿ’‰ Why she's making the shift from aviation to a career in nursing
๐ŸŒ Advice for building fluency and confidence without living abroad
