I don't mentor anybody. I am not smarter than anybody and frankly I am always learning from everybody, at all levels of experience.

Never claimed to be smarter than anyone, but if you're experienced then people look up to you. A little bit of encouragement can go a long way. Like my story, all I did was nudge her to negotiate, and she felt the confidence to do so.

I can recommend looking into "science days" and stuff like that. It makes you a lot more hopeful for the future to see a lot of curious, open-minded 12-year olds.

And then they likely become the usual cynic adults, but hey, you tried.
