You only need one person to believe in you. For some of us, that person is a mentor. But finding the right one? That’s not always easy. Meet Christiana Ovoikariaomo Nwegbu, a Freelance UX Designer. In an interview, we asked her: 📌 "Tell us about a time a mentor believed in you when you didn’t believe in yourself. How did that change you?" Her response? "I’ve always believed in myself, but finding mentors who truly resonated with me was hard. That lack of validation made the journey lonelier. I pushed past it, doing my best, but I always wondered—how much further could I have gone with the right guidance? Most of the people I admired were either too high up the ladder or weren’t subject-matter experts in my field, so our connections never quite aligned for mentorship. Then, I came across ADPList. I could hardly believe it was real—personalized mentorship, often for free? I knew people gave advice in general settings, but this was something different. And for many like me, it was the opportunity we had been searching for. Through ADPList, I’ve received invaluable feedback and clarity on questions you can’t just Google or ask ChatGPT. The kind of advice that changes your perspective, your confidence, and ultimately, your career. A huge thanks to Felix Lee and the ADPList team for making this possible, and to all the mentors who share their time and knowledge.” Christiana’s story is an inspiration for everyone who has ever felt alone in their journey. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the right guidance can make all the difference. "Behind every great achiever is a mentor who believed in them first." We all have a story. ❤️ #OneADPList P.S. Tell us about a time someone believed in you.
