It was a great journey that I would love to recommend to anyone interested. The program is adjusted to your needs so whether it is soft skills, leadership or learning how to code - you can choose your path with a mentor. The mentor I had is absolutely amazing and a perfect choice for me. I feel that I discovered so much about myself in the last half year and feel much more confident in my job and life in general.

Over the past six months, the mentoring program has been an incredibly enriching experience that exceeded my expectations. I am deeply grateful for the guidance and support of my mentor, whose insights and encouragement have been invaluable. One of the most significant lessons I learned was how to communicate more effectively, particularly by adopting the Nonviolent Communication style. This approach has helped me express myself more clearly and empathetically, leading to stronger relationships and better collaboration with colleagues. I am proud of the personal growth I’ve achieved through this journey. I’ve gained greater confidence and acceptance, not only of myself but also of others. Letting go of perfectionism and the need to control has been transformative, allowing me to focus on what truly matters. I’ve also improved my logical thinking and prioritization skills, which has enhanced my ability to tackle complex tasks and make sound decisions under pressure. These changes have had a noticeable impact on my work. I feel more connected to my team, more effective in my role, and better equipped to contribute meaningfully to our goals. Moving forward, I would like to continue developing in areas such as strategic thinking, leadership, and fostering innovation within the company. This experience has been truly inspiring, and I am excited to build on the foundation it has provided.

I truly enjoyed the mentoring sessions and would like to commend Femme Palette for their ability to find such a great match. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Anna! I appreciate the guidance she provided throughout the process. Her insights and experiences were very valuable and resonated deeply with my own challenges. I am grateful for her support in helping me clarify my goals and for being open to revising them as we progressed. I look forward to applying what I've learned from her. A key takeaway for me has been the importance of motivation and building habits to achieve my goals. Additionally, I recognize the need to listen to those around me and trust their positive perceptions of me, rather than being overly critical of myself. In my current work, I will focus on topics that can be applied in practice rather than proactively building a new set of skills. Thank you Anna once again for your mentorship and for all the time we spent together!

They consistently brought forward ideas, suggestions, and materials to help me reach my goals. Their guidance and encouragement were instrumental in helping me achieve significant progress in these areas. I am proud of the improvements I’ve made, and I’m deeply grateful to my mentor for their dedication and expertise.

I am particularly proud of the progress I have made in enhancing my leadership skills. I have become more confident in guiding my team and making strategic decisions. This has not only improved our project outcomes but also fostered a more collaborative and motivated team environment.

I settled my thoughts and mindset and started to focus more on my strengths (Cristina helped me to realize which ones are the strongest and most important for me). I began consciously working with my key strengths within my focus areas - my goals. Because of this, and Cristina's example, I believe I face imposter syndrome better, with more confidence. I can also balance the creative and business parts of my work more naturally without feeling so guilty that I neglect the other. Finally, I feel ready for a more senior (and perhaps) slightly different role with the need to balance work and lifetime more precisely - but I will need to work on this area when the time comes (during this role).
