Looking for a nursing mentor: Leonardo's career change at 39

Leonardo, a taxi driver, is retraining for nursing and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over three months.

I have worked as a taxi driver for 17 years, and I'm 39. After being laid off, I decided to move into nursing, and I have completed a self-study course with a project portfolio. What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my interview answers, a realistic view of the job market in Michigan, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming. I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for three months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time. All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
