Mentorship is traditionally imagined as wise sages imparting wisdom from on high to eagerly engaged young disciples. But in the modern era, this perception needs to be demystified and redefined.
As an Applied Developmental Psychologist, Dr. Deborah Heiser began researching the positive mental outcomes of aging.
