Continuing with the theme of setting New Year’s

Continuing with the theme of setting New Year’s resolutions, (have you given up on them already? 😂) I always enjoy learning new things and developing my skills.

So it was fantastic to attend TerpSummit 2023, an annual three-day online event that provides a great opportunity to connect with other interpreters and share ideas. This year’s theme, ‘Coopetition’, combines Competition and Cooperation, as discussed by the conference host Sophie Llewellyn Smith in her opening speech. Once again, the event centred around three key themes: self-care/confidence, marketing/branding, and interpreting skills.

An incredible line-up of experts gave live presentations over the three days, covering a huge range of topics, such as imposter syndrome, mental health, hearing health, marketing, branding and finances.

She challenged listeners to ask themselves, ‘Why don’t you have enough time?’ So I ask you ‘Why don’t you have enough time?

From the archives 📋

Throwback to an #interpreting assignment with former Italian President Carlo Azeglio Ciampi and his wife Franca at The Scuderie del Quirinale (Quirinal Stables, also called Papal Stables).

The president himself inaugurated it
with a series of masterpieces from the Hermitage museum in St. Petersburg.

It was also the first time that such a broad selection of works of art from the famous Russian museum had ever left their St. Petersburg home.

Some 100 paintings and drawings by Degas, Monet, Renoir, Cézanne, Gauguin, le Douanier Rousseau, Vlaminck, Derain, Vallotton, Vuillard, Sisley, Pisarro, Matisse and Picasso were hosted by the Scuderie until June 2000.

Happy February! It's the month of love... 💖

Let's start it off right and share a little love by reaching out to someone virtually. Who on Instagram in your industry do you admire?

Perhaps you speak with them often, you'd like to get to know them better, or you've always
enjoyed their posts from afar.

Leave them a 🗨 or a ❤️ and make their Friday!

Testimonials are so important to developing your b

Testimonials are so important to developing your business. There's no better way to cultivate a
feeling of trust with prospective clients. Reassure them that they're in good hands right from the
start! 👐
Here's one of my favourite testimonials from a previous client. 🥰
'From the moment Luciana picked up the phone I knew I would be in safe hands, and she didn't
disappoint. Luciana was very clear about her timeframe in which she could deliver the work
back to me. Not only was everything done to a high standard, it was before her own set
deadline. I experienced Luciana to be very professional, warm and sincere. I recommend her
highly. A real pleasure to work with!'
This testimonial means a lot to me, as it outlines the client's full experience with my services.
Nothing makes me happier than knowing I've given my client a professional and personal
experience they've loved from first meeting to conclusion! 🤝 Mutual trust and word of mouth
are invaluable methods of growing your client base, and testimonials are such an important tool
to achieve this. 💌
Have you reached out to clients for testimonials before? What are your thoughts on sharing
testimonials on your website and social media?

"There is no such thing as a perfect, ideal or correct translation.

A translator is always trying to extend his knowledge and improve his means of expression; he is always pursuing facts and words."

From the archives: Interpreting at Bicester Herita

From the archives: Interpreting at Bicester Heritage - UK - Mercedes 300 SL What I love about interpreting is the variety of events I’m able to attend and different topics I get to explore! A couple of year ago, I interpreted for Ms Daniela Borrini at @bicesterheritage site -> read more -> link in bio -> news! 🏎#classiccars #bicester #interpreter #interpreterlife #italianinterpreter #xl8 #bicesterheritage #petrolicious #interpreteratwork #englishitalian #eventsmanagement #londonbusiness #businessinterpreting #classicars

What are you reading right now? 📚
I prefer to balance my time between personal development books and reading for pleasure.
Books are one of the best places to go for developing an understanding of yourself and your work, but they're also the perfect way to unwind! 😴If possible, try to get a little reading done in the morning and the evening, to begin your day screen-free and to switch off at night. 🌙

Excellent service! Efficient, swift and very warm, Luciana is an excellent translator with huge respect for the customer!

When we work together, I won't just be translating your words - I'll be translating you.
One of my favourite parts of my work is connecting with my clients as individuals, learning about
what makes them tick and what they really want me to help them express. 📣
This means you can rely on me to help you cross cultural and linguistic boundaries, and make sure every nuance in your words can be heard by your audience. 🌍

It’s clear that lots of preparation goes into an interpreting assignment! 🏋️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But how do you mentally prepare for your work? 🤔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Emotional agility is so important as a business owner and interpreter. To maintain my focus, energy levels, and calm, I need to remember that the physical, emotional, and mental are all connected.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With that in mind, I’m putting in place a variety of routines ahead of my 2023 assignments to help preparations go much more smoothly for myself and my clients.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I like to make sure I get into my booth an hour beforehand - I put my phone on silent to concentrate, meet with the speaker to better understand their accent, get insider information for the event, and find my way around the venue. 🤝⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And for remote simultaneous interpreting assignments, I’m working on a new habit - thanks to Atomic Habits by @James Clear (which I highly recommend)! Although I approach RSI with the same professionalism as in-person work, my preparation looks very different. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We as interpreters can struggle more with grasping the source message when not face-to-face. We’re not co-located with speakers, which also changes the meeting dynamic. It’s also important to protect our ears when using headphones! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Since I’m in my office on RSI assignments, I try to have 30 minutes of quiet time before beginning. 💭 This takes me from a reactive, stressed mindset as the assignment approaches, to a more relaxed, focused state that’s perfect for concentrating on my clients, wherever they are in the world. 🌍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I would like to ask both my interpreting and non-interpreting colleagues: how do you prepare for your assignments?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Grow at your own pace. 🌱
We can all sometimes fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to other people's progress,
especially at this time of year as the motivation for resolutions begins to wane.

When you find yourself like this, trust in your own judgement and in the fact that you're where
you need to be right now. Don't rush and burn yourself out - take things steady, and you'll get to
where you want to be.

Are you on track to achieve your goals? 🚀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Or are they beginning to fall by the wayside as life picks up speed again? 🪂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re feeling more like the latter, don’t worry – this is only to be expected when trying something new! The most useful thing you can do when working towards a big new goal is take small steps towards it every day. 🏃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Want to exercise more? A quick two minutes of running up and down the stairs still counts. Practising your writing skills? Take five minutes before bed to compose a quick social media post or the introduction to a new article. Learning a new skill? Take a moment while waiting for the kettle to boil to look up the best online courses for beginners. ☕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There’s always a small step you can take to achieving your goals. If things feel overwhelming, shrink them down into quick wins, and just take it one after another.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can do this – I’ll be cheering you on! ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
