Re: A Little Mentor Problem
Speaking as a head coach - I do not go out of my way to shoulder extra responsibility, especially if it means taking work away from enthusiastic students.
I think that there must be a good reason why your mentor is doing what they are doing. They stepped down as head mentor, but are now trying to do more work? That is a big non-sequitur.
It does sound like your biggest issue is communication - have a frank conversation with this coach. Ask them 'why' they are doing what they are doing. DO NOT 'have a conversation with yourself.' That is to say, don't try to imagine or assume someone else's intentions, reasoning, etc. This almost always leads to overreactions and unneeded stress.
