I really talk about a bunch of different stuff in this one - which actually kind of makes sense, given I devote most of my time talking about the impacts I suspect my ADHD is having on my efforts to learn Scottish Gaelic. You may also hear a bit of a song I am learning and some Gaelic I wrote for my SMO class!

In this episode, I talk about the 4 main types of learning styles and why it would be beneficial to reflect on what our learning styles might be, especially as we look towards setting goals to help us achieve them or the New Year's Resolutions we made!

In this episode of Michelle Learns Gaelic, I share some of my thoughts on Duolingo. We all know there are pros and cons, but sometimes articulating them out loud can help us make a more active decision about whether the app is really suiting our needs and helping us achieve our goals.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
