    Common Mentorship Problems - and Real Solutions with Gerry and Shayla

    Today Shayla and I are doing something a little bit different on the show. We are going to answer some of your questions. So these are questions that we either have received or we've heard over the the span of the Mentorship Program. If you'd like to join the conversation or have a question answered or would like insight, feel free to email us at smp@gvsu.edu. And when we do another one of these, we may read your question on the air. You can also submit anonymous feedback if you'd like. We always enjoy having these conversations, reading these, so you can't see in the studio, but we don't have any producers. So, what Shayla and I have done, is taken all of the feedback that we've gotten and questions that we have, and we've created the "Bowl of Mystery".
