How Important Is Having Mentors?

I would encourage everyone, yes, having digital or online or added distance mentors through podcasts or books or online mentoring programs is great. But I would also challenge everyone to have at least one mentor who lives within 50 miles of you who can look you in the eyes and tell you those hard truths. And what has worked for me to secure mentors ... anyone who you're going to want advice from is likely successful in whatever that endeavor is.
