In the July 2021 episode, Ms. Nichole Pientka has a conversation with Christina Wagener, Precious Taiwo's mentor in the FLI Program who was on a previous episode. Christina speaks about not having much support as a first-generation college student and why being a mentor to those who are in a similar situation is important. Her recommendation to others who want to mentor is to be available and flexible for their mentees. Christina looks forward to continuing to mentor Precious as she transfers to a four-year university to pursue her nursing degree.
