    Celebrate your successes

    What makes a good mentor? And what should you do to be a good mentee? In our final episode of Level Up, we'll answer these questions and talk about how to get started with your own mentorship relationship. We're joined by Lucy Lloyd, Co-founder of Mentorloop, which is an online matchmaking site for mentoring relationships. She shares the lessons she's learned from observing hundreds of mentorship relationships in action. In an interesting twist, however, we learn that Lucy's own relationship with her mentor isn't the formal relationship you might expect from someone who runs a business focused on mentoring. Sure, Lucy and her mentor Aaron Wallis guide each other through some tricky business challenges, but they also like to enjoy a few cheeky wines along the way.

But Katy ended up getting more than she bargained for. Some might find Didier's mentoring methods a little challenging. But Katy credits her success to those moments, and she's thankful for being pushed to new heights. She credits her relationship with Didier as a driving factor in her success today.
