Talking Confidence: Why Women Need Mentors Talking Confidence with Holly Caplan

How important is mentorship? I think it is very important for personal development. When I examine my own life and think of this topic, my mentor was my mother. I watched her grow a business, lead in community activities, and I sought advice from her on my own life. But then as I emerged into professional life, I didn’t seek mentorship. It didn’t occur to me that it was needed, but it was. It would have been nice to have a few mentors throughout my career to help provide assurance that I was going in the right direction. So, how do we place more attention on mentorship for women? How do we recognize these relationships, utilize them, and then pay it forward to the next generation?
In this episode, Rita Balice-Gordon will share with us how having mentors has affected her life and why she believes serving as a mentor can help improve others.
