126: Networking and mentorship, with Melissa Snow

What are the benefits of having a female mentor--in business or in life?

We sat down with Melissa Snow to discuss how to find a community to support you and how to create genuine connections. We talked about the role of networking (it's not just about making connections), the value in finding someone who believes in you, and who you trust, to be a mentor, and how women mentors offer particular advantages to other women. And, spoiler alert, a mentor doesn't have to be someone who is farther along in their career than you are.

Melissa Snow is a business relationship strategist dedicated to empowering women in entrepreneurship and the founder of the Powerful Women Rising Community, which provides women with essential support and resources for business growth. Melissa's mission is to revolutionize networking, promoting authenticity and genuine connections over sleazy sales tactics. She lives in Colorado Springs with her husband, two dogs and three cats. She loves iced coffee, true crime, Taylor Swift and buying books she’ll never read.
