Show Notes

Today is International Mentorship Day (who knew, right?). You have to see it to be it. That phrase may be a little overused but it is also very true. This episode is all about the transformational power of mentorship, and two teen changemakers who saw a need for increased accessibility to female mentors, particularly for students from gender-marginalized communities. They created MyNetworkHer to fill this need.

Learn more and sign up for a mentor (or suggest a female leader in the STEM field to become a mentor) at www.mynetworkher.org and follow @mynetworkher.
