So, I think overall it provides a lot of clarity for everybody, which is a good thing. Clarity is kind.10:15 - I think about the perception of their community that they're going to be using to start their own firm, and if they're starting a new business and they're a career changer and it's this rushed squirrely thing, probably doesn't bode well for them trying to help their warm market, if you will.29:07 - It's just like situational coaching. It's very dependent on everybody's situation, but I encourage at least to knock out one or two of the exams if possible prior to getting started. It's hard to keep a full calendar and to be studying and live your life as well.ContactHeather Price ConsultingChristopher Shafer LinkedInRachel NutterLinkedIn
