Previously a fashion buyer in Pedder Group, Dolce & Gabbana and DFS, LVMH, Julie decided to launch her own brand after seeing a void in the market for chic and modern qipaos. In her free time, Julie loves taking walks whilst listening to a good podcast, and reading self-help books in a coffee shop. Maintaining good mental health is extremely important – burning out is really a thing – so it’s important to take care of yourself!

Mentor Spotlight

Nana Lin

Nana is an Australian-born Chinese who currently works at Goldman Sachs in the Investment Banking Division, specialising in risk management for institutional clients. Her passion for finance developed only in her last year of university, behind most of her peers who had done several finance internships by the time. However, this perceived “setback” allowed her to affirm her passion and stay focused in developing her long-term career in finance. She’s now exactly where she wants to be in her career, and hopes to share her experience with others who might be facing similar anxieties about their career decisions.

Become A Mentor

Interested in becoming a mentee as well? With Flawnt, you can be both!

Flawnt is a unique co-mentoring platform, providing you the opportunity to become both a mentor and a mentee at the same time. After all, you may be an expert in one field, but want to seek advice in another.

Frequently asked questions

We want you to be 100% sure about becoming a Flawnt mentor. We hope these FAQ items can clear up any doubts about our amazing community.

How does it work?

Our role is to provide the tools to connect women and facilitate mentorship relationships, as well as be your point of contact if you have any questions or require technical support. Although we provide recommendations and guidelines on best practices and program structures, it is your responsibility to be there for your mentee on their journey. How exactly is up to you – regular video calls, tasks or on-demand chat messaging, all is available and configurable to you!

After you submit your application, we will review your profile and use our algorithm and expertise to match you with a mentee or mentees that fit you best. You will then be set up with an account on our platform where you can complete our required on-boarding activities. Once complete, you can reach out to your paired mentee(s) and proceed to on-going mentorship — you may follow our support materials and recommendations or freestyle as you desire.

Throughout your mentorships, using the Flawnt platform, you can connect with your mentee through direct chat messaging, calendar scheduling, as well as utilise our various accountability and management tools. We may also frequently share news, updates, and useful downloadable resources with the community too!

How do I get paired with a mentee?

  1. Smart algorithm — Based on the extensive private profile you provide for us when you apply to become a Flawnt mentor, our recommendation algorithm will find your best match based according to a variety of aspects!
  2. In-depth profiles — We design our questionnaire to be as wide-ranging and holistic as possible. Please be truthful and detailed — this is the only way our system can match you with a mentee that fits you best!
  3. “We’re not clicking!” — In the rare event that you are not happy with your pairings, please get in touch with us — we will do our best to honour your requests, and you are entitled to up to 3 mentor/mentee switches per pairing!

What are my responsibilities?

We will provide optional guiding materials for you to get started with your mentee. After that, you can keep using our optional supporting materials or run the mentorship program in your own style and ways. We do ask our mentors to use our platform to message their mentee(s) at least twice a month to check in on how they’re doing, and to complete at least one mentoring session a month.

Mentees come with different expectations which they are asked to outline during their on-boarding with you and in the orientation sheet we provide. We only expect you to openly communicate and be realistic in negotiating what you can take on. Otherwise, just be authentic, ready to grow and flaunt your leadership skills. Most importantly, enjoy the program!

How much money can I make?

For most of our mentors, money is secondary. However, if you can end up making money by helping others, then we think that’s awesome!

Mentors can earn up to 80% commission of each mentee’s monthly membership, priced at $170-200 HKD/month.

How does the reward system work?

We reward our mentors for activity completed on our platform:

1 point earned each time you log in to your mentor profile
5 points earned each time you send a message to your paired mentee(s)
10 points earned each time you complete a mentoring session with your mentee(s)

100 points = HK $10 to be used on our online shop!

Top-rated mentors (through reviews, ratings, and mentee feedback) may also be eligible for other rewards and exclusive features on our brand campaigns, blog, and partner publications!

How much time does this take?

Our software is designed to be efficient. The time you invest completely depends on you and your mentee. You have complete control of your calendar and mentees book according to your schedule. However, we do recommend that you connect with your mentee at least twice a month, and spend at least 1 hour a month working with each mentee.

What do I get by becoming a Flawnt mentor?

  1. Get paired with your best-fit mentor or mentee!
  2. Exclusive access to our Flawnt mentorship platform and tools
  3. Exclusive access to downloadable guides and worksheets curated for you
  4. Exclusive access to stories of different Flawnt women
  5. Exclusive deals from our Flawnt women’s businesses
  6. Exclusive invites to our digital or live panels & community events
  7. A chance to be featured on Flawnt and our partners
  8. A chance for your products / services to be sold on Flawnt

Can I also be a mentee?

Yes, definitely! In fact, you can choose to be both! Why did we develop a co-mentoring platform with the ability to be both a mentor and a mentee at the same time? Because we excel at different areas in life! You could be a mother of two and want to share your life hacks and experiences with new mothers in our community. At the same time, you want to learn about making investments from home and wish to seek the knowledge and expertise of one of the investment gurus on our platform — Flawnt makes this possible!

Mutual mentoring relationships either with the same person or with other people (i.e. you mentor one person but are a mentee to another) are shown to improve overall community outcomes and allows for greater collaborative efficiency transcending traditional age, rank, and organisational level boundaries (Mosser 1987).

Simply register for our mentor and mentee application, and specify the kinds of subject areas or topics you’re interested, and we’ll make sure we get you paired up with the right people!

Who are the mentees? How do they get picked for me?

Our mentors and mentees come from all walks of life in Hong Kong. Much like yourself, they are hard-working, enthusiastic women who are looking to move their personal and professional lives forward, across many different subject areas, topics, and industries!

Our smart algorithm runs through the data provided by Flawnt applicants and recommends the best match in every possible aspect, accordingly. We utilise our expertise to vet and curate these recommendations to ensure that pairings are the best as they can be!

How does Flawnt verify the authenticity of profiles?

We ask each applicant to provide a recent photo of themselves along with their designated social media profiles. We also require that users provide their legal name and date of birth as well as a valid email address.

Personal information is collected for verification, background check, and matching purposes only. This information is kept completely private.

Can I cancel my membership?

We understand that things change. You can cancel your membership at any time. To cancel your membership, please contact us.
