many people remember certain mentors who completely change the direction of their careers not because they gave simple answers but because they help them think differently so from your experience and if you could highlight that as well what separates mentors who truly transform careers from those who simply give advice

Deepika RamamurthyGUEST
Yeah, I think the biggest difference is from who give advice to who transform your careers is advice give us just tell you what to do and transformative mentors help you discover what you should do, right? So great mentors do not want to just give you answers.

Deepika RamamurthyGUEST
They teach you how to think, right? And that connects back to the clarity question that before this, right? Just like communication helps you create clarity for others, great mentorship helps you create clarity for yourself.

Deepika RamamurthyGUEST
I experienced actually this a couple of years ago when I had another offer from a different company and it was a really attractive opportunity.

Deepika RamamurthyGUEST
The compensation was much better and on paper and it looked really strong as a strong next step.

And for somebody who might be listening today, maybe somebody who is at that juncture, as you mentioned in your career as well, to somebody who has just started their career, who wants to advance in their career or build confidence or create more opportunities for themselves, what would be your biggest advice on using communication as a tool to unlock growth and new possibilities?
