I was definitely nervous at first- I got off to a rocky start. But after meeting and talking, the position turned out to be just what I was looking for!
Originally, I was worried that doing an internship linked to another place I had already worked would have made me look like I couldn't find another place to intern. It made me nervous- would I look like too small town with this on my resume?
I asked my mom - guru of all things business - and she told me that actually the opposite is true. It shows that you were wanted back, which is definitely a good thing.
And if you wanted to get technical... I'm interning for a show instead of the company. So that distinction can help if anyone attempts to peg me with small town syndrome.
I also thought that it would just be radio-centered, like the last internship I had been offered. But after meeting the host, it turns out I'll be doing a lot more than just radio work!
Not only do I get to work on a radio show, I also get to work on the website and social media. I might even be able to do some writing!
Needless to say, it's almost like this internship was made for me. I get to do all the things I wanted to do, it's local and it starts immediately!
There's a lesson to be learned here, as always. The shoe could be a perfect fit, but how will you know until you try it on?

Stay true to yourself,
