012: The Key Differences Between Coaching and Mentoring - a podcast by Spencer Coppin, Dai Manuel & Adam Hart
from 2016-11-22T08:00
Dai, Adam, and Spencer discuss the subtle differences between a coach and a mentor. These two job titles can play very different roles in your life, depending on where you are, but both of them have a time and a place. The men also discuss what you should look out for when hiring a coach, and when you should make the financial leap to seek outside help.
