    How Do You Mentor? (Part One)

    How Do You Mentor? (Part One)

    What does it take to be a mentor? It might be easier to talk about what it doesn't take to be a mentor. It doesn't take a lot of time, professional experience or training. What it does take is a desire to invest in another person.
    Today's discussion is additional content that can be found in the Fahrenheit: Real Life Mentoring Workshop, Session Four. In today's subject about how to mentor, Chris and Christina talk about what it takes to begin the mentoring adventure with another person.
    Again, this is great supplemental content to the mentoring workshop offered by Fahrenheit: Real Life Mentoring. If you would like to attend or host your own workshop for your organization, contact Fahrenheit: Real Life Mentoring (fahrenheitmentoring.org).

    Who Can Be a Mentor?

    Who Can Be a Mentor?

    What is a mentor? What does it take to be a mentor?
    Today Chris and Christina will take an in-depth look into what it really takes to be a good mentor. It doesn't take professional training. It doesn't take a special skill set. It does take intentionality and a desire to see authentic connection with another person. YOU can be a mentor if you have your own challenges. YOU can be a mentor if you have experienced hard things. YOU can be a mentor. It just takes real people getting involved in the lives of other real people. We promise, you can be effective with just a few tools and the goal of making an impact.

The Best Podcast on Mentoring!

In my search for a podcast on mentoring, this podcast is the best BY FAR! Most podcasts under the category of mentoring take the approach of simply “mentoring” the listener. Real Life Mentoring is a podcast that actually teaches the listener “how” to mentor.

Every episode is full of practical information as well as inspiration. The hosts are enjoyable to listen to and the quality of the show is fantastic. It’s a very easy podcast to binge listen to! : )

Great resource from authentic mentors

Chris and Christina are so authentic and easy to relate to. I love their biblical perspective on how God is at work in the midst of my own challenges and struggles and how I can take these principles and help others with them.
