About Balance Buddy

Balance Buddy is a growing mental wellness platform that empowers young adults to navigate stress, self-growth, and emotional healing with relatable, accessible content. We believe healing should feel safe, supportive, and real — not overwhelming.

We’re currently in our early-stage startup phase and looking for creative individuals who want to grow with us — while making a positive impact on mental health communities online.

Role & Responsibilities

• As our Social Media & Content Design Intern, you will:
• Create visually engaging designs aligned with Balance Buddy’s brand identity
• Assist in planning and scheduling daily/weekly content across platforms (TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn)
• Turn long-form website articles into short engaging slides and posts
• Brainstorm creative content ideas, trends, and community-building strategies
• Monitor content performance and provide improvement suggestions
• Work independently while maintaining high productivity and consistency

What We’re Looking For

• Strong design skills (Canva or similar tools)
• Aesthetic eye that fits Balance Buddy’s calming, modern style.
• Responsible, proactive, and eager to learn.
• Able to handle deadlines and work in a fast-moving environment
• Passionate about mental health, self-growth, or content creation
• Understanding of Gen Z-style content is a BIG plus!

What You’ll Gain

• Real startup experience in digital media and brand building
• Your work publicly showcased across social platforms (great portfolio boost!)
• Mentorship in content strategy and wellness communication
• Recommendation letter + certificate upon successful completion
• Opportunity to continue in a paid role as we grow
