Be the Echo 🗣️

Shadowing is listening to audio and speaking ALONG with it (simultaneously), not after it.

  1. Listen: Hear the rhythm.
  2. Mumble: Try to hum the tune.
  3. Shadow: Speak instantly with the speaker. Mimic their speed, emotion, and pauses.

Why? It disconnects your brain's 'reading' habit and connects your ears to your mouth.
