"The most exciting new podcast in the startup world.” - Eric Ries, Founder, and NYTimes bestselling author

This plog (podcast+blog post mashup) is called “The Secret to Getting Mentors”.

Alright, we are back with another plogging episode and this one is “The Secret to Getting Mentors”.

First-time founders and employees would often ask, “How can I get a mentor?” Or they will humbly ask if I can help them with their project or company. I feel very grateful for the mentors that I've had in my life for the last 11 years. Some of the folks have been on the podcast and some of them are too hard to get onto the podcast, but I would not be here without their guidance and their mentorship, especially during low points.

So what is the secret in getting mentors? Listen to this episode to learn more.
