982 - Naturally Talking About Stress and Being Busy

Happy English Podcast

About
Seems like these days a lot of folks are busy, and even stressed. How about you? Have you ever wanted to describe your situation or feeling with something more conversational than  “I’m very busy,” or “I’m stressed.” I’m glad you said yes. In fact, native English speakers usually have a few other ways to talk about stress and being busy that sound more natural and more conversational. We often explain why we’re busy, or we soften what we say so we don’t sound dramatic. And that’s what I want to help you with today - talking about stress and being busy naturally in English.

Happy English Podcast – Speak English Naturally I’m Michael from Happy English, and I help people speak English more naturally, confidently, and clearly.
