I made a decision to discuss decisions.

This is a short episode for those of you who like quick thoughts on one subject. The one continuous discussion in the sign language profession is focused on how we make decisions, practical, professional, ethical and moral.

• Why do we always have questions about our decisions? 
• What makes it so hard for us to accept our decisions?
• Why do we doubt ourselves so much??

This is a wonderful discussion in the second half of my interview with Scottish, CODA interpreter, Bruce Cameron. He explains more about the system of training for sign language interpreters in Scotland and we dig deeper into his approaches to decision-making, team interpreting and more. His perspective of interpreting comes from growing up in the natural language and cultural environment of Deaf parents.

Press play for incite and humor surrounding the life of this Scottish interpreter.

When did you decide to be an interpreter? How did you become an interpreter? Listen to one interpreter's path to the profession and how his life journey influences his work. His experiences can be lessons for us all.

In this episode of the Interpreter's Workshop, we visit with a BSL/English interpreter from Scotland. Bruce Cameron is a CODA who became an interpreter later in life through a unique government funded program. We hear about his life as a child of Deaf parents, his work from a DJ to interpreter, and such details as how he is paid for interpreting.

In Part 2, we go deeper into his approach to interpreting decisions and the system of the profession in the UK.

Why do we take ourselves so seriously? Chill. Stay cool. Be calm and interpret.

In this episode of the Interpreter's Workshop, I tell two stories from the beginning of my two careers. I relate them to interpreting, the profession and selfcare.

Story 1: Ego...much?
Story 2: Don't look at me...it was him!

Also, thoughts on the phrase that interpreters use often, "I'm just the interpreter."

Enjoy. Please let me know what you want to talk about and more at interpretersworkshop.com.
