Mentoring Made Easy
If you’re a working woman, chances are you’ve been told about the importance of having a mentor. But what should mentorship really look like? At 4word, we believe a mentoring relationship should go deeper than just professional advice. Adding a spiritual and life mentoring dynamic can yield even more meaningful relationships and personal development. Diane Paddison breaks down the basics of what a good mentorship should look like.
Wednesday Interview
Who Are You?
Do you know who you are? When someone looks at you, can they tell that there’s something “different” about you? Cynthia Garrett, TV host and Christian actress, is passionate about people discovering their true identities in Christ and using that knowledge to guide their life’s path.
