Hi Jesse. I've been "learning" Spanish for about 4 years. I haven't applied myself very well in that time, but like you, I plan to double down this year. I have a subscription to Babble and a few other, less expensive subscriptions and Apps (including Duolingo). (Not sure which one serves me best at this point since I haven't really applied myself.) But, I highly recommend this guy on YouTube called Qroo Paul. He explains the language and differences between Spanish and English really well: https://www.youtube.com/@QrooSpanish. Paul also hosts a Spanish learning community on Skool.com called "The Qroo Spanish Crew," which I also get a lot of value from. Hope that helps and ¡buena suerte!
Hii, I wanted to share a bit of my Spanish language journey so hope it helps! I started learning Spanish during covid to pass the time. I started off with Duolingo and independent studying like studying everyday words I use in English but just in Spanish. Nothing too crazy, just a notebook and Duolingo. That way you're able to learn vocab that you know for certain will be used and even try translating everyday things on the daily helps! I did that for about 2 years (and expanding as you go) and then started university and decided to double major in Graphic Design & Spanish. With that, I was able to start off in intermediate level classes my freshman year and now I'll be graduating this spring after studying overseas for a semester (Spanish language school, host family, and all the stuff). Anyway, hope that helps and overall consistency is really key!! :)
Happy New Year!!!!! love all the goals :) i too would like to use a sauna more

Doing the work and sharing self reflection is a beautiful way to pay forward all that you have been blessed with.
Love your heart
