How do I ask for an informational chat? (Columbus)

A friend suggested informational chats and I do not know how to ask. There are 13 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I want advice, not a job directly. What did you ask?

I wrote three short lines: who I am, why them and a small ask for fifteen minutes. About one in four said yes.

I asked what they wish they had known at my stage. People enjoy answering that.
