In today’s episode of Podcast and Chill, Gwen and Leo talk about a powerful idea:

the best investment you can ever make is YOU.

Not just money. Also your time, energy, effort, and belief.

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, overthinks, or keeps waiting to feel “ready” first. Because sometimes, waiting for the right time is just another way of saying: never.

🌱 In this episode, you will learn:

✅ What “invest in yourself” really means (not only money)

✅ Why growth needs patience, rest, and a nurturing mindset

✅ The “seasons” of personal growth (spring, summer, autumn, winter)

✅ How learning builds long-term value and confidence

✅ Why curiosity and consistency are your best fuel

✅ Why it’s never too late to start, at any age

💬 Join the conversation:

🍃 Which season are you in right now, and why?

🔥 What are you passionately curious about these days?

✍️ What is ONE small lesson you took from this episode?

🎧 Stop Learning So Much | One Skill, One Project (Podcast and Chill) 📚😵‍💫➡️🎯✨

Have you ever felt like you’re learning all the time… but somehow you’re getting nowhere?

Your desk is full of books. Your phone has 1,000 saved videos.

You even have multiple courses open… and still your mind feels empty.

In today’s episode of Podcast and Chill, Leo and Gwen talk about the hidden problem many learners face:

✅ Learning too much

✅ Collecting information instead of building real skills

✅ And how that can actually make you fall behind

👀 In this episode, you will learn:

🍽️ Why “too much learning” is like a buffet you can’t finish

📱 Why learning is too easy now (and how that creates distraction)

🧠 Why your brain needs time to process, not more tabs

😩 Why you forget what you watch, even if it felt clear yesterday

🕳️ The trap of buying more courses to “fix” the problem

🎯 The real solution: One thing at a time

🔥 Main method from today:

✅ One Skill – One Project

Pick one skill. Connect it to one small project.

Not “learn Photoshop someday”… but:

“I will use Photoshop to make a birthday poster.” 🎨🎂

⏳ The 20/80 rule for learning:

📺 20% watching

🛠️ 80% doing (practice, mistakes, fixing, trying again)

Because watching is only seeing. Doing is learning. 💪

🧠 Quick reset moment in the episode:

📵 Put your phone down

🌬️ Take one slow breath

🚶‍♂️ Drink water

Because learning is real work, and your brain needs breaks too 💛

📌 Key vocabulary in this episode:

✅ lose track

✅ fall behind

✅ bite off more than you can chew

✅ prioritize
