🎙️ Yes And Land — Podcast Show Notes

Host: Ryan Gregerson Guest: Kenton Walker Episode Theme: Mentorship, growth mindset, and leading with experience

🌱 Episode Overview

In this thoughtful and wide-ranging episode of Yes And Land, Ryan Gregerson sits down with attorney Kenton Walker to explore the true meaning of mentorship—and why it matters more than ever in fast-paced, high-pressure professional environments.

Kenton shares his unconventional career journey, from pharmacist to patent litigator to family law attorney, and reflects on how each chapter shaped his approach to people, leadership, and learning. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful idea: mentorship isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about sharing experience, building trust, and guiding others through uncertainty.

The discussion dives into how mentorship prevents burnout, strengthens workplace culture, and creates space for growth on both sides of the relationship. Kenton also opens up about learning through mistakes, mentoring without titles, and why being a “guide” often matters more than being an expert.

To round things out, the episode features a fun movie tie-in with The Intern, plus a rapid-fire “This or That” segment that gives listeners a glimpse into Kenton’s personality beyond the courtroom.
