We often imagine mentorship as a formal relationship between an experienced professional and someone who’s just starting out. But sometimes the most valuable guidance doesn’t emerge from something structured, but from candid conversations with colleagues.On this week’s episode of Everyday Better, we’re bringing you one of those conversations. Leah is joined by two of her LinkedIn colleagues, Jessi Hempel and Gianna Prudente, for an honest discussion about their biggest career challenges. In their conversation, they discuss imposter syndrome, work-life balance and what happens when Plan A—and maybe Plans B, C, and D—don’t work out.For more advice on mentorship, subscribe to the Everyday Better newsletter.Follow Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn.Follow Gianna Prudente on LinkedIn.Follow Leah Smart on LinkedIn and Instagram.
