Do you have a mentor? How do you prepare for your meeting with your mentor? My Story



Do you have a mentor? How do you prepare for a meeting with your mentor? I have had some mentors before, both those who knew they were mentoring me like GS Sophie Ngassa Fon Nsoh and others who didn't like GS Olutosin Oladosu and Lisa Nichols in the US. But, World Pulse gave me an amazing opportunity to have a formal mentor and the soul they matched me with is a spirit sister now. This is none other than Megha Venketasamy . Now, I looked up the role of a mentor so I have something formal to share:



\"A mentor may share with a mentee (or protege) information about his or her own career path, as well as provide guidance, motivation, emotional support, and role modeling. A mentor may help with exploring careers, setting goals, developing contacts, and identifying resources\"



Megha probably knows this because she did all this for me during the 6 months of our formal program (actually this is the last month).



So, how do you prepare for a meeting with your mentor?
I leave nothing to chance even if the meeting is virtual and am home (as is sometimes the case like today). I dress up to impress us lol, I review my work and notes, prepare some questions too and do a breathing exercise (one she made on her YouTube channel long before we connected hahahaha). I say a prayer and release my intention for the hour we'll be spending together to Mother Earth and Wind and Love.
I really wish everyone could get them a mentor in life and why not be that mentor to someone too. I cherish and appreciate all my mentors, and wish them especially darling MEGHA so so much. Be inspired motivated and encouraged.
