Guest Quotes:

3:34 Connie “ And that was when I said, wow, like, it would be so cool one day to be able to present in a such a big stage like CSM. And Jamie being the mentor that he is, he said, noted a little mental note and he said, I think we have just written our first goal as mentor mentee.”

7:07 Jamie “ It’s easier to be a mentor when your mentee takes an active role. Yeah. In, in the relationship. Too many mentees try to take a passive route.”

21:35 Jamie “  If you try to be too prescriptive as a mentor, I think that kind of turns the mentees off.  If I had told Connie exactly what she needs to do every single day, she probably would’ve said, all right, enough of this guy, I’m outta here.”
