We like how you describe the Pass L.O.V.E Forward acronym, it reminds us of our own techniques for helping people who seek spiritual guidance.
'Learn their purpose' may be the most critical part.
We may always strive to listen to those we mentor, to understand what they want to do entirely from the points of view of their own hearts and minds. We must always struggle to remain completely neutral, to listen without directing at this stage. We believe each person's unique world views must be respected, and that ach person must fullfill the dictates of their own hearts and minds first.
Whenever there is conflict in the individual it will lead them to cross-purposes that may cause them to hurt themselves or others. Listening to what is truest to themselves in another person's heart and mind is then paramount to understanding their purpose and supporting it.
We believe we should never impose our own personal or culutral imperatives when we listen.
Alas, when we listen with the intention to understand, we must often engage in dialogue in order to clear up the intent of the words spoken by the person we are listening to.
We always risk contaminating their ideas with our own ideas in any dialogue, particualrly in a mentor-mentee relationship where there is too often a presumption that the mentor is always wiser.
We also risk mutually engaging with our respective cultural, cognitive, and emotional defense mechanisms once we begin any dialogue.
If your mentorship programs follow these ideals, then we see much hope for the results.
Thank you.
Namaste

Our skype ID appears to be greg.gourdian
We've not used this account in some time, nor do we keep skype open by default, if there is a time that would be good for you to call us, we can activate our skype then, that way we won't call you at some inconvenient time.
Our hours of physical activity are chaotic, we can be pretty flexible about what hours we make ourselves available, or at what time it might be most convenient for us to call you.
We would enjoy experiencing your mentoring process, as it sounds familiar in intent to some of our own work.
Namaste
