As one of 11 interpreters in South Africa who are accredited with the South African Translation Institute (SATI), Zikalala says she is passionate about finding creative ways of making the language and skill accessible to a wider audience.

She adds that this is reflected in the channel, as she uses her skills to share her personal journey and speak about topics such as innovation and leadership.

"I’ve always wanted to share and tell my story with the aim of inspiring, empowering and hopefully showing audiences that anything is possible. For the first time, I am stepping out of my usual expected role of being a SASL interpreter, and rediscovering my true passion of being a role model," says Zikalala.

Good Vibes with Thuli has 10 episodes altogether that air every Thursday at 19:00 on YouTube. Each episode runs for 20 to 25 minutes.

According to Zikalala, the channel is shaped by three concepts, including sharing topics she is passionate about, featuring content from leading podcasts and including subtitles and SASL interpreting to make it more accessible.

"This is an extension of me being a SASL podcast pioneer, and this platform is the perfect way of dominating the industry and being the leading go-to person for all types of content. Podcasts also offer an immense wealth of knowledge that needs to get out there to the masses," Zikalala adds.

Thuli is a recognised professional in her field and has interpreted for programs such as the Presidential State of the Nation Address and the Afro-Punk Festival.
