Being a student isn’t just for the years you’re in school. There is always something to learn and new people to learn from, whether they are your junior, senior, or right on track with you. 

Mentors play a huge role in learning throughout life and provide immense opportunity for personal and professional growth. However, there are many other ways you can continue your education even if you don’t have access to a mentor. 

In today’s episode, special guest hosts Haley Janicek and Alexis Teichmiller talk about mentors, teachable moments, being intentional with your education, and why it's important to never stop being a student. 

Main Takeaways

  • Mentorships are valuable, but most people think about mentors being someone older or more experienced. However, to be teachable, you should be open to learning from anyone, even if they are younger or different from you.  
  • If you’re going to instigate a teachable moment, make sure the recipient is in a state of mind to properly receive said feedback and put it to use. 
  • Having a conversation with someone who could offer you feedback in the future is a valuable way to find ways to improve. It’s important to find a mentor who has the experience to offer you but is not too busy or unattainable for conversations. 
  • Being intentional about what you’re hoping to learn and incorporating it into your day-to-day is an excellent way to make sure your newfound knowledge or skills stick.
