"Every day, people spend months trying to figure things out on their own — watching endless videos, reading conflicting advice, making costly mistakes. We built Request a Mentor to change that." — Skid Sadiq, Founder, Request a Mentor
Who We Are

We Connect Ambitious People With Experienced Guides

Request a Mentor was built on a simple belief: success becomes easier when you learn from those who've already done it.

Instead of spending years learning through trial and error, our members gain practical guidance from experienced professionals, entrepreneurs, creators, and industry experts who have already walked the path they want to follow.

We don't just connect you with any mentor — we hand-pick the right person for your exact goals, budget, and learning style. No scrolling through profiles. No guesswork. Just the right guidance, matched to you.

Whether you start with a book, a course, or a 1-on-1 session with a mentor — we'll help you find the fastest path to where you're going.

Our Mission

Why We Exist

We believe knowledge should be accessible. Not everyone can afford private mentorship — and that's okay. Sometimes the right book is enough. Sometimes a course is the perfect starting point. And sometimes nothing compares to sitting down with someone who has already achieved your goal.

🎯

Right Guidance

We match you with mentors who have done exactly what you're trying to do — not just experts in theory.

💡

Accessible Learning

Multiple pathways at different price points mean everyone can access the knowledge they need to grow.

⚡

Faster Results

Learning from someone who has already made the mistakes cuts your learning curve dramatically.

🤝

Real Relationships

We don't just send you a link. We build real mentorship connections that last beyond a single session.

"Our mission is simple: To connect people with the knowledge, guidance, and mentors they need — through the format that best fits their goals and budget."

Meet the Founder

Skid Sadiq

Founder, Request a Mentor · Mentor · Speaker · Entrepreneur

Skid Sadiq created Request a Mentor with a straightforward conviction: the fastest way to achieve something is to learn from someone who has already done it.

Having navigated his own journey through entrepreneurship, creative work, and building businesses from the ground up, Sadiq experienced firsthand how life-changing the right mentor at the right time can be — and equally, how costly the absence of good guidance can be.

Request a Mentor is his answer to that gap. Not just a platform, but a philosophy: that access to experienced guidance shouldn't be limited to the privileged few, and that everyone deserves a shortcut through someone else's already-made mistakes.

Beyond building Request a Mentor, Sadiq is a speaker, coach and creative who brings energy, directness and real-world insight into everything he does. Whether he's on stage, in a session, or building something new — his mission stays the same: help people go further, faster.

"You don't have to figure it out alone. Whether you start with a book or book a mentor — we'll help you find the fastest path to where you're going."

— Skid Sadiq

"Real mentorship — a person's time, attention, and experience — is one of the most valuable things you can invest in. That's why we built more than one way in."

— Skid Sadiq

"We're not selling information. You can get information anywhere. We're selling someone's lived experience, focused entirely on you. That's rare. And it's worth paying for."

— Skid Sadiq
