“It has made me realise that everyone is going through something, good or bad, and just having a conversation about it holds a lot of power. It has also made me more empathetic to strangers, as you meet such a diverse range of people in both the mentees and mentors who you may not normally interact with, and as such realizing that everyone around you is generally nice, friendly, and approachable.” - Mark, Mentor
