Between the Lines: A CODA’s View - 0.125 PS

$12.65

Episode Info:

In this episode, I sit down with Audrey, a professional interpreter and CODA (Child of Deaf Adults), for a candid conversation about the unique complexities of being raised in the Deaf world while working within it. We explore the weight of expectations placed on CODAs, from pedestal status to scrutiny and identity struggles.

Audrey shares how her experience without formal interpreter training shaped her professional journey, the emotional toll of high standards, and the nuanced ways CODAs navigate boundaries, community trust, and interpreting. Whether you're a CODA, interpreter, or simply curious about this perspective, this episode offers rich insight into a deeply layered experience.
