  • 1.6 What Mentorship Really Looks Like
    Apr 22 2026

    In this episode of The Perry Center Podcast, we are joined by Danny and Andrea Almquist, a husband and wife duo who stepped into mentorship in a way they never expected—and have since watched it grow into a deeply personal friendship that has become part of everyday life.

    Andrea began by mentoring a young woman from The Perry Center, initially feeling unsure of her ability to step into that role or what it would even look like. Over time, what started as formal mentorship has turned into a genuine friendship. Danny later began mentoring the resident’s husband, and together they’ve walked alongside this young family through marriage, parenting, and life after The Perry Center.

    This conversation is a beautiful picture of what long-term, relational support can look like when people simply show up, stay consistent, and allow space for real friendship to form beyond a formal mentoring role.
