YourTango Internship
As an editorial intern at YourTango, I had the incredible opportunity to work with a publication dedicated to revolutionizing relationships and fostering a deeper connection between readers and their loved ones. YourTango’s mission centers on helping people create meaningful connections with friends, family, and the world around them while also promoting well-being and a sense of belonging. As an intern, I wasn’t just writing articles—I was contributing to that mission in a tangible way.
​
The editorial internship at YourTango involved a range of responsibilities. My daily tasks varied, but they always centered around creating content that resonated with the publication’s diverse audience. I was involved in writing articles on a wide range of topics, from relationships and mental health to self-improvement and lifestyle tips. Research was a key part of my role, ensuring that the content I produced was not only well-informed but also fresh, relatable, and accurate. I also helped edit and proofread articles to maintain the high editorial standards YourTango is known for. This taught me to be meticulous about grammar, tone, and consistency.
​
The internship gave me hands-on experience with the editorial process—from brainstorming article ideas to the final stages of publication. I had the chance to collaborate with editors and other interns, learning how to refine my writing to fit a specific voice and brand. One of the most valuable skills I developed was the ability to write content that speaks to readers’ emotions, encouraging them to connect with the material on a deeper level. Whether writing about the importance of self-love or exploring ways to improve communication in relationships, the goal was always to produce content that could help readers live healthier, more fulfilled lives.
​
My experience as an editorial intern at YourTango is teaching me much more than just the technical aspects of writing. I learned how to tailor content to meet the needs of a specific audience, how to communicate complex ideas in a clear and engaging way, and how to collaborate effectively with a team. Ultimately, my goal as an intern is not only to contribute to the mission of YourTango but also to walk away with a deeper understanding of editorial work and how to create content that resonates with people in meaningful ways.
