Great article, Sage Marie! Thank you for sharing your observations and thoughts on living with aphantasia. I totally resonate with all this.
Hi, Nicole! Thank you for your feedback and comments. I am so glad to hear you found my article helpful. I don't know the term "neuro-sparkly" but am curious to learn about it. It sounds as though you have a lot going on, but don't let that stop you if you are passionate about becoming an Auslan interpreter. Your English aptitude is a definite strength. There are a lot of things that go into making a good interpreter and having a mind's eye doesn't guarantee success. (Thank goodness!) Thanks again for reaching out. I wish you all the best!
