Six areas to mentor or be mentored in
Career or business
Changing jobs, managing people, growing in a field.
Starting a business
From the first idea to the first hire.
Trades and hands-on skills
Building, fixing and making, learned from someone who does it.
Parenting
From someone a few years further down the road.
Faith
For people who want to grow in their faith with a guide.
Life and money
Budgets, big decisions and the long view.
How mentor matching works
Mentees choose Find a mentor
Pick the areas you'd like help with.
Mentors choose Mentor someone
Members 45 and older are asked at signup, right after their birthday. Anyone can volunteer later.
Matched by area and fit
You share at least one area, and personality and working style fit. Age doesn't filter mentoring.
Meet side by side
Coffee at a market, a walk, a tour of a workshop. The same planning as every match.
Questions
Do I need to be an expert to mentor?
No. You need experience someone else doesn't have yet, and the time for an occasional meeting.
Is mentoring romantic?
Never. Mentoring is its own kind of match, separate from dating.
Is it free?
Yes, like every way to meet on Zydeby.
