Lemon Health is a confidence and self-care app that transforms the experience of puberty for girls. As a start-up, we address a massive problem that is often overlooked. We're hiring a Micro Intern to support us in building our brand by leading on communications, social content, PR and community building. This internship is an opportunity to help shape the way puberty is spoken about, and connect young women with the spaces and language they need to feel understood, empowered and supported.
