The Trades Accelerator: Women Leading Business Innovation

Episode 34: The Accountability Boost: How Mentorship Moves Us Forward

Dana Staszkiewicz and Melanie Sloane Season 2 Episode 34

In this episode, Melanie and Dana dive into what mentorship actually looks like—from both sides of the table. They share personal stories about how formal and informal mentorship shaped their careers, the lessons they’ve learned along the way, and why mentorship doesn’t always need a title to make an impact.

You’ll hear how small conversations can lead to big growth, what it really means to show up for someone, and how being mentored (or mentoring) can shift the way you lead and work. Whether you're new to mentorship or thinking about becoming a mentor yourself, this one’s for you.
