HOT TOPICS OF THE EPISODE 

[01:49] - Monique introduces her guest, Ross Johnson.

[02:03] - You recently started traveling. Tell me about it.

• I haven't really been out in the world that much.
• I went to Dubai, Egypt, and I just went to Paris. 

[10:50] - I've seen one of your latest posts, which I thought was pretty interesting. Tell me a little bit about the post.

• I think it's not even about that topic.
• It's more about the lack of responsibility of people and their use of language in general.
• Language and the things that you say to people is way more important than what people think it is.

[19:46] -  I feel like sometimes it's super interesting to also see if you use these patterns with someone that doesn't know them. So what's your experience with that when you start using them?

• It’s challenging to watch your own language all the time. Because you're always talking.
