Dr. Deborah Heiser is the CEO/Founder of The Mentor Project and author of The Mentorship Edge. She is a TEDx speaker and expert contributor to Psychology Today. Our conversation today is about mentorship. Deborah explains:
- why mentorship is so powerful for Boomer women
- Ageism and the emotional trajectory
- What makes a good mentor
- A paid gig vs volunteer
- Grandparents as mentors
- Wisdom meets Innovation
- non-profits and Philanthropy
I was quite surprised at how clearly defined the role of mentor actually was. So much great food for thought today!

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.
My podcast is for Boomer Women. A variety of subjects, a variety of viewpoints... and open to suggestions if I'm not covering a topic you want to hear about.
