A few days ago, I shared a reflection on LinkedIn (in English) and Instagram (in Spanish) about the increasing resonance of imposter syndrome in professional conversations. I didn’t expect it to trigger so many direct messages from people, both familiar and new, who all shared a common experience: they had dealt with imposter syndrome and felt compelled to share their stories with me.

Continuing the celebration of Women in Translation Month and taking advantage of the few days left in August, I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Chantal Wright, Professor of Creativity and the Language Industry at ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences and, none other than the founder of The Warwick Prize for Women in Translation, now coordinated by Holly Langstaff. And when I say "I had the pleasure..." I really mean that it was an honor and a privilege to chat with someone I personally admire greatly for her work, who is also incredibly kind.
