Mentoring has been a huge part of Tash’s personal and professional development, especially during the second half of her time at uni. Although Tash didn’t think too much about what exact career she wanted to pursue after she left the University of Exeter, becoming a mentee within the university’s career mentorship programme helped with thinking about various creative careers and approaching new opportunities with a refreshed perspective. When Tash decided that she was going to pursue journalism, she got herself another mentor who’s been in the industry for a number of years. 

With featured interviews and discussions from Tash’s two mentors Stewart Ross and Susan Egelstaff, Tash Talks about the value and benefits of mentoring both for a mentee and a mentor. 

In the second half of the episode, Tash is joined by Dr Hilary Coyle who is both a mentee and mentor to discuss how students can go about finding a mentor if this is something they’re interested in.
