The Value Of Having A Mentor

The Value Of Having A Mentor

One of the things that I know about my Spiritual Team, is that they’re wicked funny… and they will use just about ANYTHING, to help me, guide me or give me an “universal sign”.

Recently they “came in hot”, by delivering a message via my sweetie’s fortune cookie that literally stopped me mid-chew! Ha!

That sucker said: “A mentor is someone whose hindsight can become your foresight.”

And I just had to give a “double amen hands” because that statement is so damn true! 🙌

Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking about the value of having a mentor.

The thing is, when you hire a mentor - you’re not just paying for their time, you’re also investing in their expertise and their experience.

When we take a deeper look, a mentor not only walks beside you as you navigate and transform your problem, struggle and pain, but they also bring with them years, decades and sometimes a lifetime's worth of experience, education, and expertise!

Top that off with the investments they’ve made and what they’ve received from their own mentors and coaches' advice and support that can also help you along the way!

That’s why I always say, “Good mentors have good mentors.”

I also jokingly say; “Mentors are the people who ran out of the ‘burning building’ and spent some time in the medical tent getting healed and gathering resources, so that they now have enough both internally and externally, so that they can now go back with ‘buckets of water’ to help put out others who are still on fire.”

If today’s episode had a subtitle, it would say - “How mentors save you time, suffering, money, mistakes, energy, and sometimes, even heartache.”

If you’re ready to make a lasting change, then join me for today’s episode and begin to see the powerful value of investing in yourself by having a mentor in your life!
