FAQs
One of our core values is 'purpose before profit' because we genuinely want to help you succeed. This means your happiness comes FIRST.
If you join the membership and don't feel the warm and fuzzies from our events or mentoring, we'll give you your next month free so we can make it up to you (and believe us, we will go above and beyond!).
We want you to join our membership safe in the knowledge that your happiness comes first. Nothing to lose, everything to gain!
She Mentors is a purpose-driven tech platform that helps all women* share knowledge 1:1 . It's designed so that everyone takes part in The Mentor Hour and pledges 1 hour each month to help someone else.
The giving and receiving mentorship maintains the spirit of the community and ensures we only attract beautiful souls, committed to helping each other succeed. You have complete control over who you spend your hour with each month. Simply browse hundreds of member profiles and choose someone interesting!
This is billed on a month-to-month subscription basis, automatically renewing every 30 days.
*By 'all women' we mean anyone who has experienced oppression as a woman, including trans, CIS, non-binary, LGBTQI, migrant women etc.
Women who want to help each other succeed! We deliberately mix business with pleasure; startup with corporate; beginners with experts.
Come and meet industry peers, growth mentors, mindset coaches, career counsellors, creatives, people geeks, thought leaders, CEOs, business owners, new mamas, job seekers and everyone in between! We understand that for you to succeed, you need more than just one mentor. You need a team.
We’re committed to ensuring an inclusive, supportive environment for our members, team and guest speakers. We warmly welcome people from LGTBQI+ backgrounds and historically marginalised experiences to join our community.
Please note, you do not need to be an experienced mentor or 'expert' to join. We value the exchange of knowledge. We actively want to attract different experience levels.

No, not at all. The whole concept of The Mentor Hour is shared experience. Even limited knowledge in a particular field could be extremely valuable to someone else. All we ask is that you share the same values as us, and want to help other women succeed.
She Mentors is about paying it forward so we hope to attract women who share our values. We are a purpose-driven community, packed full of generous people who take the leap, often overcoming fears, barriers and mindset issues in the process.
The more you get involved, the bigger your personal transformation will be! This membership is not designed as a 'set and forget'. We want you to love our community and get the best possible value for money. Our team is on hand to support you every step of the way.
We often source speakers from our community, giving VIP members the opportunity to host Group Mentor Hours, Industry Forums and appear on the She Mentors podcast.
Speakers are chosen at our discretion, so make sure you're an active part of the Facebook group and introduce yourself to the team to get noticed. We love seeing members helping each other out and celebrating each other's success, so the more active you are, the more likely it is that we'll seek you out!
Once you become a member you'll enjoy a personalised welcome in our Facebook group and meet other newbies in our kick-off coffee with She Mentors founder Ali Adey.
Each month you'll be able to book a 1:1 mentoring session with anyone on the platform. This is the perfect opportunity to tap into the collective knowledge of our community. Likewise, your profile will be available for others to book an hour with you 🙌
We host lots of events inside the membership, including Group Mentor Hours, Goal Setting & Accountability, Masterminds, Forums and community-lead in-person MeetUps in all major citites and remote areas around Australia and NZ.
At the end of the month, take part in our #ShareYourWins initiative inside the Facebook group and will prizes for your efforts!
We love to support all members across our socials, but VIPs get extra special love to 12,000 Instagram followers, 7,000 LinkedIn followers and special features in our EDMs. So if you're looking to boost your visibility, this membership is for you.
1) Upload your member profile and pledge 1 hour each month
2) In return, browse hundreds of member profiles and book 1:1 Mentor Hours to upskill, learn and grow.
3) Meet in-person or online and share knowledge
Meet for coffee or online over Zoom or FaceTime. It's completely up to you!
Rest assured, there is no pressure to 'have all the answers' or to provide direct advice or coaching during Mentor Hours. They are just an opportunity to share your knowledge in a relaxed environment over a cuppa.
The membership is for women who want to help each other succeed, therefore we ask all members to commit to giving 1 hour each month (if booked). That being said, we understand how crazy life can get so there is an option to set your available hours to "0".
Our new search and filters make it easy to find members in specific industries, skills or location. This membership gives you complete control of who you meet, what you talk about and whether you meet in-person or online.
If you get stuck, try posting a callout in our Private Facebook Group and let our community come to the rescue. Don't forget, the She Mentors team is always on hand to help. Simply email admin@shementors.com.au and we'll happily offer up recommendations!
You will receive an email alert with the subject "Nice one! You've been booked for The Mentor Hour" and details of that member's booking,
Please get back to that person within 2-3 working days to confirm date and time.
Organise to meet over Zoom, FaceTime or in-person and don't forget to take a photo for your chance to win a free month's membership!
We often recommend Zoom to catchup for The Mentor Hour, but feel free to use any platform you wish. Often we recommend Google Hangouts, FaceTime (on your iPhone) or just have a simple phone chat!
Don't worry! The point is that you're available if someone should need help in your particular field. That's all we ask!
If, however, you would like to mentor others and aren't getting many bookings, please review your profile and perhaps add in more skills, update your title or tweak your copy to appeal to the masses.
If you need help with this, please email admin@shementors.com.au and we'll be happy to assist.
To start with we ask everyone to give and receive 1 hour per month (if booked). However, if you would like to give more than 1 hour, you can edit your profile and increase your hours.
If you need a break from mentoring, we have recently introduced the ability to reduce your hours to '0'. This ensures no one else can book your Mentor Hour until you choose to reset it.
As part of a paid membership, you get to book 1 Mentor Hour each month.
- If you're seeing 'greyed out' disabled Mentor Hour buttons, this means you have already booked someone. This resets on the 1st of every month.
- If a mentor says "Booked Out", the Mentor has already been booked by someone else. Their hour will reset on the 1st of every month, so get in quick if you want to book!
No sales pitches, no hidden agendas. This is a mentoring platform for women who genuinely want to help each other succeed. We ask all our members to share experiences, knowledge and skills – not to provide direct advice or coaching.
