My motivations to work with a mentor

I need help. I am the number one cheerleader and mentor for my TEAM. I always see the glass as half full, I take a lot of pride in hearing my staff and checking in with them on a deeper level than just their work for me. I need someone to help bolster me up, I don't really have a professional person in my life that can do that for me, I need guidance and I also need support.
