Events: demystified Podcast · 2026-06-19 · 47 min
Host Anca Platon Trifan opens the CEO edition of the Events Demystified Podcast with a conversation about leadership discernment and reinvention, then interviews Julia Danmeri, founder and CEO of TranslateAble. Julia reflects on how event operations shaped her leadership through organization and valuing people, and describes moving from a traditional “one path” career mindset to questioning her direction during COVID when work paused and she realized she’d stopped learning. She explains pivoting from becoming a solo translator to running a language agency after referrals demanded languages beyond her own, and shares how being a CEO meant shifting from operations comfort to sales, client acquisition, and managing freelancers. They discuss AI as an ongoing industry pressure, staying relevant without rabbit holes by using clear plans, productivity habits, and prioritizing key tasks, plus improving accessibility by promoting services like sign language interpretation to the communities who need them.
