Layers. We all have them.
And so does mentorship.

Everyone has unique personal and/or professional mentorship needs, and that’s why we’re building a network of mentors ranging from a variety of different niches, life experiences, backgrounds, career paths, and industries.

  Interested in becoming an affiliate mentor?

Our mentors offer the opportunity for women from around the world to connect with them one-on-one in exchange for a minimum donation of $10 USD (INR 750) to our partner non-profit organization, Aahana India. So when you become an affiliate mentor in our network, not only are you helping other women thrive, you’re also supporting the youth of rural India in addressing economic, social, health, and education inequalities.
