Throwback Thursday to the day I stepped into my first youth mentorship session — not really knowing what to expect, just knowing I wanted to give back. I remember wondering: Would I be helpful? Would I connect?
What I’ve learned since then is that mentorship isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about showing up, being present, and believing in someone even if they don’t yet believe in themselves.
I am grateful for that first step and grateful for every conversation since. Investing in our youth is how we keep Duvall strong!
