Why you need a mentor with Lisa Teh - 027

July 27, 2020 • Tamara Johanna • Season 1 • Episode 27

Lisa Teh provides a compelling argument for why you need a mentor. In simple terms, a mentor will help you avoid wasting your time, and energy, and money, and ultimately get you the result you want, faster. Who doesn’t want that.

I could have talked for hours with Lisa, she was so generous with her time. Here’s an overview of what we cover in the full episode:

Lisa’s entrepreneurial journey, transitioning from a corporate job to start three digital businesses, plus create a beauty brand that is stocked in Australian beauty retailer Mecca, and co-author 2 best-selling books, Australian Style and Australian Beauty. (5:47)
The importance of having a mentor, and how having a mentor saved her thousands of dollars (15:00)
Her latest business Lisnic, on online platform to connect coaches with mentees, and how to apply to be a mentee, mentor or coach (14:50)
We also switch gears to talk about mental health, and how she incorporates mental health practices into her busy schedule (30:12)
And so much more!
