Hi Taylor!
It was a pleasure to read your blog, I really enjoyed it. I can very much understand you having insurmountable challenges at work and then doubting yourself. But I think you did a very good job of using your past experience to solve problems to get growth. Internship is indeed and torturous trip but overcoming this difficulty can see a better view. I think you’re doing amazing work, keep up the good work!

Hi Taylor!
I felt the same way entering my current internship and had a similar realization. I loved that you used your own resources in combination with support from Rosemary to reassure yourself in your abilities. I’m glad I had this experience too because it will be helpful while navigating our future careers. Thank you for sharing!

Hi Taylor!
Glad to hear that everything got rolling for you. I was the same way when I started mine. I had a hard time figuring out a lot of things I thought I knew. I think that’s a great indication that you are learning and growing from your internship, it also makes the work more rewarding.

I always had the idea that I would be okay with any role I get. Like you said, it is important to see that there is always room to grow and learn. I like the vulnerability you had with this post and sharing how unprepared you felt, but how much you learned from your experience. I have always wondered how much we will be pushing ourselves in the next few years with internships, jobs, etc. With this you showed how much, again, there is out there that we don’t know yet, which is both scary and exciting!

Hello Taylor! I think it’s cool that you interned at the College of Liberal Arts. Rosemary seems like a great mentor to you, and I’m glad you learned a lot from her! I saw the flyer on social media about Hispanic Heritage Month at the College of Liberal Arts was promoting, and to know that it was you behind the scene makes it even more awesome.
