Vocab from this video:

Estuve de buen humor - I was in a good mood
Estuve de mala leche - I was in a bad mood
Una cena un poco tensa - A bit of a tense meal
A todos nos sienta bien movernos - Moving makes all of us feel better
Bueno, al grano - Right, let’s get to the point
Agobiante - Worrying, overwhelming
¿Qué te resuena? - What resonates with you?
Menudo poder que te da esto - This really empowers you
Un día redondo - A great day
Yo ni lo intento - I’m not even going to try
Soren Kierkegaard Quote:
Sobre todo, no pierdas el deseo de caminar: cada día camino hacia un estado de bienestar y me alejo de toda enfermedad; he caminado hacia mis mejores pensamientos, y no conozco ningún pensamiento tan agobiante que uno no pueda alejarse de él.
Además, también es evidente que al caminar uno se acerca constantemente lo más posible al bienestar, aunque no lo alcance del todo.
Por otro lado sentándose quieto, y cuanto más se está sentado quieto, más cerca se está de sentirse enfermo. La salud y la salvación sólo se encuentran en el movimiento... si uno sigue caminando, todo irá bien.

- Context notes for the Spanish conversation segment:
We begin by talking about things that were easy for us to learn, then discuss other things that were hard for us to do at first, that we didn’t believe we’d ever do well, but with persistence we managed to get really good at in the end - Can you hear what these were?
Finally, we encourage you to look at other things in your life that you do really well, or have had trouble with in the past and then were able to do well.
(We summarise the important fluency concept at the end of the video in English).
