Looking for an accounting mentor: Diana's career change at 53

Diana, a taxi driver, is retraining for accounting and is looking for a mentor for monthly calls over six months.

I have worked as a taxi driver for 8 years, and I'm 53. After being laid off, I decided to move into accounting, 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 capstone project, a realistic view of the job market in Northern, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming. I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for six 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Best of luck, Diana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Tamale.
