How to find a mentor who actually helps you - not just anyone with a title

from Behind The Milestones Hosted by Milestones Kids Therapy Hub

Good mentoring can transform your career. Bad mentoring can quietly hold you back. So how do you tell the difference before you commit? Joey and Emily break down exactly what to look for in an allied health mentor - and what to run from. As practitioners who both have mentors and offer mentoring themselves, they bring a perspective from both sides of the relationship. What we cover: The qualities that actually matter in a mentor (hint: it's not just experience) Questions to ask before you commit to a mentoring relationship The difference between a mentor who challenges you and one who just validates you Why getting the right support early is one of the highest-leverage things you can do for your career If you've been thinking about finding a mentor, this episode will give you a clear framework for doing it well.
