Episode 47: The 4 Core Characteristics of Every Great Mentor | How to Find One & How to Be One

In a world full of internet gurus and thought-leaders galore, I fear there’s something that might be becoming a lost art - Mentoring. The role of a “mentor” can be vague to many of us. Do I really need one? How do I find one? What should I ask them? The truth is, every single one of us needs someone that we can trust with life’s most important decisions. That’s why I’m diving into my personal story of how mentorship changed my life and breaking down what really makes a great mentor. Listen in.

The Conversation:
