I'd like to see a service that matches mentors & mentees and gives mentors skin in the game.

As an experiment, I'd like to be on someone's "personal board" (i.e. just mentorship) in exchange for small, symbolic, compensation via an ISA.

Apply via DM and I'll respond if a fit.
Thanks to all who applied

I'm going to help @xix1sh think abt her career / side project ideas, + we'll both donate $100 to a charity of her choosing.

No ISA (too taxing to set up now) but I wonder if the symbolic gesture will make us more committed or change behavior otherwise.
Learning: There's a lot of demand for this idea from mentors/mentees (cc @purrmin), but there's also a lot of ethical pushback from others for various reasons

If you pursue this idea (or work in ISAs more broadly) you should (+ I should) become familiar w/ those concerns head on
