Mentorship in Motion

Mentorship in Motion is a Grounded Futures audio series that delves into the relationships between mentors and mentees. Through storytelling and conversation, co-hosts Melissa Sharp and Jamie-Leigh Gonzales, peer mentees Rebecca Peng and Nadya Geta, and their guests will explore the dynamics of Mentorship — in particular how women, gender non-conforming folks, and folks of colour use mentorship relationships to break into their fields. As an alternative to traditional training, Mentorship has the potential to break open fields that have historically been dominated by white cis-men. In industries that demand the voices from below carve out their own spaces in order to create, compete, or be heard; we are looking at how relationships, friendtorships or mentorships dismantle barriers to these industries.
