I initially went to the interVivos mentorship event at the Common excited to experience a great local Edmonton venue, meet some new people and have some good conversations. I was surprised to find that even though I didn't have much in common with some of the mentors, I was able to listen and relate to their experiences. The conversations with my group were quite interesting as well and the mentors were all eager to listen to our comments and guide our conversations.
I walked away from the event with a new appreciation for this kind of dialogue and it really allowed me to think about my own path and future. I used to think that I had to follow my education into a certain kind of job, but now I see that it's about finding something you are passionate about. I look forward to continuing my involvement with interVivos and will definitely continue to attend events in the future.
