She is what I never want to be as a person, she is also what I aspire to be as a PR person, so yes its not what a mentor teaches you to do, it is who a mentor is and what you are to her that makes her a mentor! The sentence reads like a jumbled word puzzle, my apologies for that.

Ta muchly, J Hi Shonali,

This is really interesting, but do you know of any similar mentoring schemes in the UK, as I’d love the opportunity to share any advice and learning I’ve picked up over the years with those just starting out?

Ta muchly,
