Every mentoring relationship begins with a free 30-minute intake call. During this call, we listen to the client’s story (often through the parents first), gather context, and clarify goals. From there, we consider personality, needs, and life experience to match the client with the mentor best suited to them. Because connection is essential, we prioritize fit—sometimes this means starting with one mentor and, if needed, adjusting to ensure the relationship feels natural and supportive.
