TLDR: Do you have a mentor? If so, how did you find them?
I've built successful products and services, worn various hats in startups (from early employee to founder), and have over 15 years of industry experience. While I'm proud of my journey, I want to keep pushing myself.
Here's my challenge:
1. Friends: They're either too busy or don't have deep expertise in my field.
2. Therapy: Great for life struggles, but not for technical advice or business strategy.
3. Online platforms: While there are talented folks out there, it's difficult to find experienced mentors with a genuine track record, not just years at a big company or generic motivational advice.
