I'm 35, but I had a junior SA approach me looking for tasks (though he is not even on my team) and I had nothing for him. So he asked if I had any advice for a 23 year old and all I could think to tell him was "Floss every day".

Any of you guys got good advice for a young person just starting out in life?

I'm wondering if he wanted general advice or if he was hoping for early career advice?

I guess the generic career advice is stuff like: build supportive networks, protect your time, channel your energy wisely, don't lose sight of who you are and why you're working, and spend some time developing the skillset needed for the job you want not just the job you have.
