Would you risk your job knowing about your entrepreneurship?

Hello everyone,

I am just getting started in real estate. Wholesaling, and eventually moving into flipping SFH, and rentals. I have a steady job now which I plan on leaving when my business takes up more of my time and brings in more money. That being said, one of the senior managers of the company has extensive real estate experience, and does flips and holds rental properties in addition to his normal job. We have chatted about this before but I never mentioned I was interested in it as well. Would it be wise to approach him as a mentor, which in turn would reveal to everyone that I don't plan to work there in the foreseeable future?
