Borrowed Belief: How to Reach Out to a Mentor When You’re Not Sure What’s Next

When everything feels uncertain, it’s easy to isolate—especially if you’re not ready to explain your story, your pivot, or your next move.

This episode is for the woman who knows she shouldn’t go it alone… but doesn’t know how to reach out without feeling awkward, exposed, or like she’s asking for something she hasn’t “earned” yet.

In this conversation, we reframe mentor outreach as an act of wisdom—not desperation—and explore how to reconnect with people who’ve seen your strengths when your confidence feels shaky.

You’ll learn:

• Why reaching out doesn’t require a perfect plan or polished narrative
• How to ask for perspective without asking for a job
• What mentors actually want to offer (and why you’re not a burden)
• Simple scripts to help you start the conversation with clarity and self-respect

This episode is an invitation to borrow belief until yours feels steady again—and to remember that reinvention was never meant to be a solo journey.
