75. How to Explain Things In a Simple Way

August 9, 2026 · 26 min

Show notes

Explaining things in a new language can sometimes feel like “the final boss.” A challenge that requires a huge vocabulary and loads of little words to connect one idea with another.

Sure, you might be missing the very specific vocabulary for your job, hobby, or something else you’re trying to explain. But in this week’s episode, I’m going to teach you the recurring vocabulary that can be used in all explanations!
