Hey everybody here we are I got to answer some questions questions that you asked and today it is

Elsa who is asking me Elsa say hello to the listeners introduce yourself

hi there my name is Elsa Marley and I am from Dallas Texas and I am a life coach and mental health counselor.

I'm a single mom as well and I just have some questions that I'd like to kind of get answered in this life journey that

walking through. Sounds good. All right, I'm ready, hit me. Awesome. So my first

question to you is, how do you find a mentor that is assigned to your purpose?

Mmm. I know that that's challenging for people, but two words stood out to be in the way you ask the question.

How do you find a mentor who is assigned?

So I like that because I believe that

there is a connection there that is bigger than the mentor and the mentee and that what is related

to our purpose does find us most of the time. And so I think there is definitely prayer and faith to be

associated with that that doesn't mean not actively looking it doesn't mean not

reaching out I think hey whatever ask somebody all they

can say is no it doesn't change your whole life right so I would don't say that

people shouldn't seek people out but also have faith that there is an assignment and that there may be an assigned person at an assigned time and that the Lord knows what's best for us and when it is best for us in certain circumstances and sometimes a mentor

being in your personal space might take up too much space emotionally and mentally

space that needs to be focused on the Lord or focused on honing your craft or focused on knowing yourself better

before you absorb someone else's voice and perspective and are there ways to get pieces of that from different people and

different sources instead of one place to fulfill that as well.

I've learned so much by watching people who I've admired,

who I've never had a conversation with. And so I feel mentored by them, even though I've never

had a conversation with them. But by watching them, by listening, really listening to them in a way that helps me to know how they think about things
