If I needed to learn this, I'm sure someone else does too.
Yes, having a mentor to bounce ideas off or talk through struggles is important, but only to the degree in which they don't impose their own beliefs and opinions. I've learned that listening with compassion is as important for me as it is my clients.
God speaks directly to us all.
Are you listening?
"But the annointing that you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his annointing teaches you about EVERYTHING, and is true, and is no lie just as it has taught you, abide in him."
1John 2:27
