b'Shriya Nevatia (@shriyanevatia) and Anirudh Pai (@ani_pai) of On Deck Catalyst join Erik on this episode to discuss:

- Why you should look for a mentor a few steps ahead of you rather than seeking out the most successful person you can think of.

- Why young people need to remember that the people around them at their level can teach them a lot and will become the next unicorn founders \\u2014 probably sooner than you think.

- Erik\'s breakdown of the career version of the Innovator\'s Dilemma and why you should take more risks earlier in your career.

- What they\'ve learned about mentor and mentee relationships.

- Why being willing to look silly early for a small period of time is a big arbitrage opportunity.

- What people can expect from the On Deck Catalyst program.
