New Hollywood Podcast: Michelle Buteau Talks 'Welcome To Buteaupia' And The Joy Of J. Lo
Deadline talked to Chang about the mentorship program, how there is a lack of mentors for women of color and how she hopes Unlock Her Potential will change all of that. I remember calling him with all these ideas. I told him, “Oh, I’m going to do this. I’m going to do that” and he said to me, “Sophia, you can’t boil the ocean.” And just that statement was so instructive. He’s totally right because, you know, we get to a certain point where we have access to lot of different ideas. We get excited about a lot of different ideas but you can’t possibly do everything.
I can only provide mentors for 106 women. If you don’t get it here, go find it somewhere else. People ask me, “How do I get a mentor?” and I would say, “Look in your industry. Go look at the people that you admire, there are a number of them. And just figure out how to send them a cold email.” The worst that could happen is that either you don’t get a response or you get a no but the best that could happen, that’s a different story.
I’m really looking forward to this opportunity.
