The Mindset of Mentorship
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about Hollowpalooza, the K&E concert that’s among the best things we do all summer. I could have just as easily written about Color War, Big Weekend, or even Carnival. But for now, with Hollowpalooza in mind, just picture this: A nervous first-time performer stepping up to the stage, guitar in hand, looking out at a sea of supportive faces. “I don’t think I can do this,” they think quietly to themselves. And almost sensing this internal dialogue, this quiet uncertainty, a K&E counselor leans in and says something simple: “I know it feels scary. But I also know you’re ready for this. And we’ll be right here backing you up the whole time.”
