What does it mean to be an intern?
Being an intern isn’t about age or rank—it’s a mindset:
Beginner’s courage: permission to be new at something important.
Small bets > big pressure: quick, low-risk experiments to learn what works.
Reps and feedback: practice → reflection → adjust (without the self-judgment spiral).
Visibility with boundaries: share progress, ask for support, and protect capacity.
Humility + agency: open to learning, decisive about next steps.
Lab over ladder: design a life that fits, not just a résumé that impresses.
The 40-Year-Old Intern hinges on 4 main pillars
1) Transitions & Recalibration — Identify + Navigate
Treat change like a placement: clarify what’s ending, what matters now, and your “learning plan” for the in-between. Tiny first steps, safety nets, and check-ins.
2) Self-Worth & Confidence — Elevate
Confidence follows competence and visibility. Do boundary drills, practice spotlight reps (shared wins), and use language that feels honest—not cringey.
3) Purpose & Joy (Small Bets) — Test + Normalize
Run 10-minute pilots to explore energy, meaning, and fit. Keep what works, drop what doesn’t, and stack micro-wins into sustainable habits.
4) Mental Health at Work — Restore (+ Elevate)
Build a humane work cadence: recovery rails, workload & time management, and micro-practices that weave mental wellness into each day.
