In this episode of HTM On The Line, we explore why mentorship isn’t just a task—it’s the heartbeat of the HTM industry. Mentorship is about more than passing on skills; it’s about building people, shaping the future, and creating a legacy that outlasts us. From moments of doubt to moments of clarity, mentorship has the power to transform not only careers but lives.

I share my personal journey with two incredible mentors: Clarence Dolese, who guided me through a time when I was ready to leave the HTM field, and Edward Lister, a retired Navy SEAL who taught me discipline and focus as a 19-year-old biomed intern. Their impact reminds us of the profound difference mentors make.

You’ll also hear practical advice for mentors and mentees alike. Whether you’re sharing your experience or seeking guidance, mentorship doesn’t require perfection—it requires presence. Together, we’ll uncover how mentorship drives personal growth, strengthens the HTM industry, and ensures its legacy continues to thrive.

Gratitude and action go hand in hand. Who mentored you? Have you thanked them? And now, who can you mentor? The future of HTM depends on us stepping up today. Let’s make it happen.
