During #1024, a "Success stories" section was added as a draft.
We need to fill that content.
This will help with growing the mentorship programs by attracting more mentors.

I know @bradmccoydev was showing interest previously: @bradmccoydev
Maybe @bwplotka too?
We can even create a blogpost for cncf.io afterwards.
@Srishtihere would you be interested in conducting such a survey and writing the success story?
We should first create a Google doc with possible questions, interview format and the success story format though.
Happy to help!
yes I would be very happy to contribute and survey for the same
If a person with good knowledge about mentoring to interview the awesome mentors we have, it would be great!
