Why This Denver Lawyer Is Learning Spanish in Midlife | Trish Cooper’s Journey to Spanish Fluency
Thinking about learning Spanish as an adult? Trish Cooper, a lawyer from Denver, shares how starting Spanish lessons in midlife has changed her life.
In this episode of Conquering Spanish, Trish opens up about:
How Spanish has “opened a lot of doors” and made travel “a lot more educational”
Why she says, “Learning a new language in middle age is not easy, but I find that it’s a way for me to exercise my brain in different ways.”
The mindset shift that helped her push past fear: “At some point I just turned a corner... I am comfortable trying it and I'm okay with that if I don't say it correctly.”
How Spanish55’s one-on-one coaching helped her gain confidence faster than apps ever could.
Her go-to way of decompressing after work: watching Spanish-language shows with her husband (favorites include La Casa de Papel and Los Favoritos del Jefe)
If you’ve ever told yourself “it’s too late” or felt stuck with apps, Trish’s story will inspire you to just get started!
