Everyone is thinking it and no one is talking about it. How are we prepared for entering the work force, a culture of which we had not participated or had any experience?

Hmmm, interesting predicament I have a solution!

Noah and Cheryl steps big and bold into the topic of Internships for college students. There is much pressure to get just the right internship.

Are you a big fish in a small pond? Are you a small fish in a big pond? Or do you even know what that means (yeah, me too)? In a bonus episode, Cheryl talks about staying small and how that's a good idea, not a bad, contrary to what the world might say.

When you enter a room, situation, or place with other people, how do you do that? Have you ever been taught these skills? What if you're a natural in that space?

Can you tell when someone is listening TO you? How often do you feel spoken AT? What's the difference? How many of us really know how to listen to another human. Noah and Cheryl have quite the conversation about this very topic.
