INSPIRATION > GUIDANCE > GOALS
A mentor is an advisor with wise counsel, guidance, and training for the people who will benefit from their legacy and build the world that comes after them. Without this age-old process of sharing wisdom and knowledge, we never would have built the society that we have today and there would be no hope for a better society tomorrow. It is the crux of progress and hope.
”Moments With Mentors” is a Podcast of interviews and conversations with my mentors: innovators & entrepreneurs who I meet in life that inspire me and who have found their own unique pathways to success by harnessing their unique gifts and strengths. The life stories about their successes, failures, and most importantly their tenacity to NEVER GIVE UP are a constant thread of inspiration for me.
My hope is that this podcast will serve both as a capsule for these conversations for myself, and also as a public forum for youth seeking mentors without the privilege to find them.
MEET YOUR
INTERVIEWER
HI, I’M SHAAN KAPOOR! (He/Him)
I am a 17-year-old student born and raised in the heart of Silicon Valley in California. As the son of both an Indian fashion entrepreneur and a technology executive, I grew up in a home at the crux of two cultures and high-profile communities. The mentors whom I have met through the privilege of my community have left an indelible mark on my thoughts and my outlook towards life. I have learned that “Life, never stops teaching,” and so I created this podcast as a life-long journey of self improvement that aspires to be worthy of being shared.
