Trail Map Sessions: Growth Mindset, Clear Expectations
Manage episode 508783078 series 2895100
Steph is back for another solo episode, drawing from The Graduate Mentor’s Trail Map. This time focusing on helping grad students believe they can get better—and making sure they know what "better" even looks like.
We talk growth mindset, how to normalize mistakes as part of the process, and why “kind is clear” isn’t just a Brene Brown soundbite—it’s a foundational mentoring principle. If your students are floundering, unclear expectations might be the root. Let’s fix that.
Whether you're onboarding someone new or trying to re-align mid-program, this episode gives you practical language and mindset shifts you can use right away.
For actionable tips and strategies for mentoring please check out The Graduate Mentor's Trail Map available in paperback and ebook now!
