How to Find a Mentor When You Are Over 50

Age discrimination is real, but so is the value of experience. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how professionals over 50 can find mentors who respect their expertise while helping them navigate late-career transitions, second acts, or encore careers. They break down the research showing that older workers are 40% less likely to be offered mentorship, and share practical strategies: reverse mentoring with younger colleagues, tapping alumni networks for peer mentorship, and targeting organizations with formal age-inclusion programs. Lucas cites the example of a former Fortune 500 VP who, at 54, used a professional association's mentorship platform to land a board seat. Luna pushes back on the idea that mentoring is only for the young, and together they offer a blueprint for staying relevant without pretending to be someone you're not. #CareerMentor #Over50 #AgeInclusion #ReverseMentoring #SecondAct #EncoreCareer #LifelongLearning #ExecutiveMentorship #BoardSeat #CareerTransition #AgeDiversity #ProfessionalGrowth #Networking #AlumniMentorship #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareerAdvice #MentoringMatters Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
