How to approach someone I wish to be my mentor?

I'm part of a climbing club and I like the personality of one of the club leaders. She is ten years older than me, I really like her personality, she's great with organizing kids activities at the club, and she runs a bio farm with her family. She has two sons and what I observed she is a great mom to them.

I also started participating as a volunteer during the activities we have for children, and I plan to spend some time at a biofarm within a climbing community after my degree, just to have a break after school; both of which was kinda inspired by her.

I would like to be more like her and would like to spend some time with her to learn.
Is that ok and how should I approach her?

Just be real with her.

@Heavenlywarrior Yeah, just be honest and real. Perhaps tell her what you like about her attitude, personality, and organizational skills and that you want to know if she'll help you attain your own goals. She might be flattered you'd ask.
