'My What If Year': Quitting Your Job at 40 to Become an Intern
I had always been, if nothing else, a girl who loves a plan. Thinking about all the steps at once was overwhelming and terrifying, but just taking the next step was simple enough. I immediately pulled up my work calendar. I scrolled ahead to the first empty weeks I could find—still a good six months away—and I blocked off an entire month with the suitably vague but firm “Alisha Out of the Office.” February 2020 felt like a lifetime away, but at least it was a start.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this conventional request from an unconventional candidate. I’m undertaking a personal project, exploring the career paths I almost chased—but, due to circumstance, chance, and choice, did not—by taking on a series of internships and documenting them. Fifteen years into my professional life, my aim is to gain a deeper understanding of what the X industry is truly like, as a way to better inform the next 15 years.
The other element of this plan that kept stopping me in my tracks was figuring out how I was going to create not just the time but the space—physically, mentally, and emotionally—to explore this new path.
