The Story Behind 

Clara Z is the creator and host of the CM podcast. 

Since her teens, Clara has been fascinated by languages. She has learned a few foreign languages, and has "lost" a fair share over the years as well. But the important thing is, she kept going. She can relate with language learners and has always been inspired and nurtured by this community. 

In the past 2 years, Clara has been practicing the "crosstalk" method of language exchange, and has accumulated 100+ hours of experience with her language buddies. 

Thanks to this experience, she has had the opportunity to observe how listening, repetition, and genuine connections performed magic in one's language learning journey. 

Unexpectedly, through these genuine & fun language exchanges, Clara finds herself getting this one comment over and over again: 

"Wow, I'm not nervous talking to you somehow. You speak really clearly, and I find you easy to understand!"

Really! Could that be true? 

Well, it might be…if a bunch of people are saying the same thing!

In hopes of helping more people, she created the CM podcast. 

🙏

Clara is a Yogi. She loves the small enlightenment of life. During 
her free time, she also loves getting close to nature and watching sports.
