Welcome back to the Intentional Intern Podcast!

This week's interviewee is Andrew Paul McIntosh—AP for short—a VC-backed founder of King of the Curve, an ed-tech company on a mission to help pre-med students study for the MCAT in a way that’s adaptive, affordable, and actually engaging. AP is also a 2025 Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree!

In today’s episode, AP and I go far beyond the founder story. We talk about:

  • The hidden habits that power not just successful companies
  • Self-concept as a founder’s secret weapon
  • The power of white space and shadow work

Plus, the deeper questions facing ed-tech right now:

  • What is education actually for?
  • How do we rescue ourselves from soundbite culture?
  • What does it mean to truly know the people in your life?


AP is someone whose energy and insight we’ve been excited to share since we first connected at the Forbes 30 under 30 summit last year. Check out his amazing work!
