Are your shoulders always tight?
Does it feel like recovery takes longer?
Are you worried you might not be able to sustain the work you love?
Interpretering asks a lot of you
Long hours.
Constant concentration.
Physical repetition.
Emotional intensity.
You need to take care of your body so it can take care of you
The Truth About Interpreting
Your body is an instrument.
We spend years learning to interpret—but almost no time learning how to care for the instrument doing the work.
Recovery isn't a luxury.
Even the most skilled interpreter needs a way to recover.
The demands of your work are real and unique. You deserve care that understands that.
Your superpower is working against you.
Your ability to stay present, adapt quickly, care deeply, and give so much of yourself is what makes you an exceptional interpreter.
Without the skills to manage or recover, those same strengths can leave you depleted.
Pain is information.
If we only chase symptoms without understanding why they're there, the cycle continues.
Longevity and thriving
Longevity doesn't happen by accident.
No one else can build the habits that protect your body and your career.
Those habits become the foundation for a long, healthy, fulfilling life.
Your body has an incredible capacity to heal, adapt, recover, and thrive—But it can't do that when it's constantly depleted.
When you create the conditions through personalized movement, nervous system regulation, restorative practice, and sustainable habits rooted in yoga and Ayurveda, your body can restore its natural vitality.
Then your body can do what it was designed to do:
heal, adapt,recover, and thrive.

Unsure where to start?
"You want somebody who really knows what they're doing, who's dedicated themselves to studying a. specific practice, that benefits interpreters and who has created a whole program for interpreters, that's something that you just don't find." - Sabrina Cienfuegos
"I had never done yoga, but was suffering from multiple migraines per a week. Even though we did this online, she was able to see what needed to be addressed. It was incredible.
At first, I was not even able to lay on my back and "let go" because I would have so many muscle spasms. My muscles were so tied up in a ball that I just couldn't relax causing the migraines.
After weeks of one-on-one, I was not only able to relax those muscles, I was learning to stretch them in a correct way that began to release the knots. Since then, I only experience about 1-2 migraines a month and the rest of my body feels so much better!" -Kathyrn Montoya
Hi, I'm Jen
I have spent nearly 30 years interpreting. I know what it feels like to love this profession and also feel the toll it takes on your body.
I know what I've done to thrive in this career, and I want to share that with interpreters.
I created Thrive because I believe interpreters deserve more than pain management.
I understand the unique demands of this profession and that we need a whole-person approach to care for the people who care for everyone else.
Don’t just survive your work, thrive in it.
