would love to eventually start my own business but have no idea where to start and feel that this could potentially be one step of that journey.
So, to me, a mentor is simply someone else with more experience than you at a particular topic who loves you enough to walk with you through something and provide their insight. it's not a "teach me how to do X because I don't know" thing. A good question for a mentor is "I am going to do X, does this make sense?"
As far as where to find someone like that...you can boil down my statement into finding the "intersection" of knowledge/experience and desire to see you succeed (love). So, you look in 2 camps:
People who already love you and see if you can find someone with the experience (family, social circle, church, work, etc), and
People who have the expertise that you can develop a relationship with: (business group, networking socials, industry professionals, etc)
Other will disagree, but I think that this love portion is ultra critical, as you will be trusting this person with your livelihood...so it shouldn't be a fast process to select someone.
