That Sounds Holy S4E48 | Feedback ≠ Mentorship: How to Choose the Voices in Your Life
Feast TV
There are so many voices around us. Who do you actually listen to?
After our two-part conversation with Ate Karen, one thing stuck with us: in every season of her life, God sent people to walk with her. So this episode, we’re talking about mentorship: why you need it, how to find it, and how to tell it apart from plain feedback.

Real talk from three worship leaders who are mentees AND mentors now:
- Why “this is my truth” and “it’s just me and God” can quietly become a defense mechanism
- The time a sister asked one of us, “Are you so arrogant that you think you have so much time?” (Ouch. But she was right.)
- The mentors who helped us decide to resign and pursue music, end a situationship, and say yes to leading Youth Sundays
- Feedback vs. mentorship: Do they journey with you? Do they actually know what they’re talking about?
- Why you should listen to ALL feedback, but choose what to carry
- Why you shouldn’t copy-paste your mentor’s life, and why having different mentors for different areas is healthy
- A gut-check for discernment: God corrects, but He doesn’t condemn
- Now that people come to US for advice: what mentoring looks like (a love slap, encouragement, or just sending memes)
- A reminder that mentors are human too, so pray over what they say, and be kind to them
If you don’t have someone to look up to yet, this is your sign to reach out. You’d be surprised how many people are waiting to help the next generation. And at the end of it all, Papa G is still the ultimate Mentor.
