One MENTOR changed EVERYTHING | Earned Influence S1E3

from Wrench Turners Podcast · host Mr Joshua Taylor

Mentorship can change a career. Sometimes, it can change the reason someone stays in the industry at all. In Season 1, Episode 3 of Earned Influence, Racheal Bright asks a simple question with a much deeper answer: How important has mentorship been in your career, and how are you paying it forward today? Jami Alexander shares a personal story about a mentor who showed up for her during one of the hardest seasons of her life. Not with a speech. Not with a performance review. Not with a KPI. With presence. With care. With the kind of people-first leadership that stays with someone forever. Racheal also opens up about the other side of mentorship. The part where you’re no longer just looking for guidance, but starting to become the person others look to for it. This episode is about the leaders, foremen, managers, advisors, and technicians who may never fully know the impact they’ve had on the people around them. Because one mentor can change everything. Earned Influence is a Wrench Turners Podcast panel series built around real conversations from women in automotive, fixed ops, service, leadership, and the trades.
