I finally got to speak with him.
You know, get his insight, and kind of take his mind about things.
Is this wording acceptable or at least possible for a native speaker to use?
I'm specifically asking about "take his mind."

Everything is fine except "take his mind". You could say "take stock of his mind/brain", but the phrase we would normally say is "pick his brain/mind".
You know, get his insight, and kind of pick his brain about things.
