Jan Zainal doesn’t consider herself an influencer in the typical sort of way, but rather, a mentor.

“Being an influencer usually means influencing people to buy a product, but mentoring is a two-way thing – we share experiences and hopefully, what we’ve gone through is of use and can help others,” she says.
