Past & Current Mentees
Meet Our Mentees’
Each of their individual stories and their journey and growth
First Cohort Mentee
Lucienne
Opportunities for growth began to open up the moment I became intentional about my journey. Mentorship Matters Africa has been one of the spaces that helped me see clearly, stay committed, and take purposeful action toward who I want to become. Mentorship Matters Africa helped me unlock clarity and purpose at a moment when I felt unsure of my direction. Over 13 weeks, the program guided me to organise my ideas, rebuild confidence, and move forward with intention. MMA didn’t tell me who to be, it helped me discover the version of myself I was meant to grow into
First Cohort Mentee
Catherine Bato
When Merilyn joined Mentorship Matters Africa, she felt unfocused and struggled with confidence and direction. Through twelve weeks of purpose work, goal-setting, emotional intelligence, and leadership lessons, she rebuilt clarity and learned to show up with intention. Today, she leads with purpose, consistency, and courage, and her growth is inspiring others to do the same.
First Cohort Mentee
Catherine Bato
Before joining Mentorship Matters Africa, Catherine struggled with clarity and direction, but mentorship helped her find purpose, structure, and confidence. Through lessons on SMART goals, emotional intelligence, and resilience, she began turning her ideas into consistent, intentional action. Today, she leads with focus and purpose, even mentoring others, proof that guided growth transforms lives.
Second Cohort Mentee
Ngebenui Queency
She began questioning her path and discovered the importance of living with purpose rather than simply doing more. Joining Mentorship Matters Africa helped her gain clarity, direction, and practical guidance for purpose-driven growth. Today, she is intentionally building a more aligned and meaningful version of herself to better serve her community.
Second Cohort Mentee
Harriet
I’m so grateful for Mentorship Matters Africa! Thanks to the guidance and structure of MMA, my kiddy coding initiative has seen real success. The mentorship helped me focus, build confidence, and take practical steps that I wouldn’t have taken alone.
First Cohort Mentee
Linly Mapayi
Linly joined Mentorship Matters Africa with ambitious business goals, but her biggest barrier was confidence. Through consistent guidance and steady practice, she learned to speak with clarity, trust her ideas, and take bold steps toward her vision. Her journey shows that confidence is built, not waited for.
First Cohort Mentee
Fuashi Gizel Nchunyi
The past seven weeks at MentorshipMattersAfrica have been nothing short of healing, reassurance, self-discovery, and renewed confidence. It has been a journey of finding clarity and regaining my sense of purpose. Mentorship is truly necessary for everyone. It doesn’t just guide you; it refines your why, strengthens your confidence, and helps you avoid the mistakes others made. You don’t have to walk your journey alone, seek help, talk about your fears, and learn from someone who has walked the path before you.
