I have had nine mentees - that is what I call them. Only three of them are still counselors, but one is a supervisor for counselors also. Not sure what happened to the others. Lost touch.

Sounds like some of the mentees forgot to (keep) reach(ing) back for (more) hugs... :) gw

Ah, the gaggle of geese metaphor. Each goose rotating and taking the lead in the vee, breaking the wind, leading, and then rotating the roll of "teacher" mentor and leader
