  • Why mentors matter with Ilana Raia, founder of Etregirls

    Why mentors matter with Ilana Raia, founder of Etregirls
    Jan 14 2025
    Illana chats to Stephanie about why mentors matter for girls and how she began Être, a mentorship platform for girls. Believing that mentors matter as early as middle school, Illana brings girls directly into companies, where they get the opportunity to meet female leaders face to face. They've done the research and the stats are in fact staggering! Mentors matter as early as middle school because that’s precisely when girls’ confidence can falter. Were you aware that between the ages of 13 and 18 girls' confidence drops by 20%? Or that by the age of 14 girls drop their sport at 2x the rate of boys? Or that the sharpest fall-off of girls in computer science remains between 13 and 17? These are just a few data-driven facts Être shares and it's no wonder we need mentors early on in life. Watch until the end as Illana shares her story, top tips, challenges, and more. We would love to hear from you, did you have a mentor when you were starting out and how did they impact your confidence in the workplace?

    Welcome to "Lead With This", a Podcast by Shecan.World


    We tell women's stories as Role Models and Mentors for others. It's easier to be what you can see. Women leading by example is exactly what we need to close all the gaps that still exist today.


    I am Stephanie Ferrario, the founder of Shecan.world and host of Lead With This.

    We interview bold and inspiring women from around the world to share their stories, insights, and experiences to guide others on their journey.


    Subscribe to and like our conversations if you enjoy them, and let us know how they have been of value to you.

    We need more women's insights at decision-making tables around the world.


    Join us on the journey to build the largest library of women role models, by telling your stories to support others.


    We want to thank our sponsors Anna Barez Brown and her company "We are Shine".

    They ignite equity in business by teaching women the tools to play a bigger game. Anna and her team consult businesses to become more inclusive, collaborative and open.


    A huge thank you goes to Anna Krantz for lending us her song: "Worth my weight in gold".
