The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore it in greater depth. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode of Compliance into the Weeds, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly discuss a recent OFAC enforcement action fining FTI Consulting $1.05 million for a sanctions violation involving indirect dealings with Russia's state-owned VTB Bank. FTI provided economic analysis for VTB in litigation, but, knowing VTB was sanctioned, used a law firm as an intermediary to invoice and receive payment, which OFAC said does not avoid liability because prohibitions apply to indirect transactions as well as direct ones. OFAC doubled the base penalty of $525,000 explicitly to promote future compliance by similarly situated companies, signaling strong disapproval of “middleman” structures. The case also involved unpaid invoices that became an impermissible extension of credit to a sanctioned entity, highlighting the need for rigorous contract and payment-term review beyond basic sanctions screening and for dedicated sanctions expertise.

The Customs Minister insists the Government's had success seizing illicit tobacco, as a report outlines the reality of the black market. FTI Consulting's study - commissioned by tobacco companies - found more than a third consumed last year was illegal. It estimates the Government lost $817-million in excise and GST revenue last year. Casey Costello says despite more seizures than ever, smuggled amounts are getting through. She's advising customers to be cautious.

What happens when healthcare leaders, innovators, and technology experts gather around a single mission: keeping patients at the center of every decision?At the Patient at the Center Symposium, hosted under the Straight Outta Health IT program, Christopher Kunney guided a series of conversations with healthcare leaders, innovators, and executives focused on redefining patient-centered care. The event featured Eugene Greyfer, founder and CEO of Advocaid and Chief Operating Officer at Veritas Health Services, who shared how his work in Texas Medicaid exposed a critical gap in access to diabetic supplies. He explained how Advocaid combines connected hardware and software, including a dual blood pressure and glucose monitoring device with built-in cellular connectivity, to help underserved patients transmit real-time health data to providers, fully covered through Texas's remote patient monitoring (RPM) program.The symposium then expanded into broader system-level innovation with Jeffrey Heenan-Jalil, founder and CEO of hunterAI, who entered healthcare innovation after losing his brother to cancer and now focuses on healthcare financial transparency through AI-driven spend analytics. He described how his platform analyzes millions of transactions across hospital systems to identify inefficiencies, duplicate payments, and misaligned supplier contracts, with the goal of returning value back into hospital systems for reinvestment in patient care. Mitali Paul, Administrator for the Department of Surgery at Houston Methodist and board member of the Southeast Texas chapter of ACH, emphasized that patient-centered care is not a philosophy but an operational standard, reflected in her organization's nationally recognized outcomes and commitment to quality, compassion, and culturally competent care.Additional perspectives came from Ini Ekiko Thomas, Vice President at Memorial Hermann Health System and leader of its Innovation Hub, who highlighted the challenges startups face when working with large health systems, particularly around compliance, cybersecurity, vendor vetting, and aligning technology to real clinical or operational problems rather than “shiny object” solutions. Finally, event organizers Brittany Jones and Verndon Samuel of Gozio Health, alongside Josh Sol of FTI Consulting, explained that the symposium's purpose was to bridge the gap between providers, IT leaders, and innovators in a local setting where real collaboration could occur beyond large national conferences.Tune in to hear how today's healthcare leaders are turning innovation into real-world impact by putting patients at the center of everything they do!

The OCC's 376-page proposed rule under the GENIUS Act is converting stablecoin policy into binding compliance requirements with formal issuer categories. Paxos, BitGo, and Ripple all received OCC trust charter approvals, but a trust charter does not guarantee Fed payment rail access. Klarivis data shows deposit movement from stablecoin-adjacent products is already measurable at community banks. The 26-month application timeline puts anyone starting today against a potential administration change, and sponsor bank programs face new pressure from charter competition and yield-based products.Bank charter confusion, trust charter risks, and Fed Master Account access gaps are creating real problems for fintech operators, sponsor banks, and community bank executives right now. Tedd Huff, CEO of fintech advisory firm Voalyre and founder of Fintech Confidential, and co-host Steve Bishop sit down on Inside the Vault with three former and current regulatory insiders: Syed Raza, former Acting Chief Innovation Officer at the OCC and Managing Director at FTI Consulting; Michele Alt, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Klaros Group; and Ian Moloney, Chief Policy Officer at the American Fintech Council.Find out more1️⃣ Answer four questions before filing: who grants the charter, what powers it includes, what activities are limited, and who examines the institution.2️⃣ Start compliance documentation now; controls, funds flow maps, and exception handling should be ready before the examiner asks.3️⃣ Read the conditions attached to charter approvals; those conditions reveal what regulators did not trust in the application.4️⃣ Align cost sharing, control ownership, and data ownership with your partner before examination forces the conversation.5️⃣ Price the M&A path into your charter strategy; the 26-month timeline means the political window may close before your application clears.Guest LinksSyed RazaFTI ConsultingMichele AltKlaros GroupIan MoloneyAmerican Fintech CouncilSteve BishopFintech ConfidentialPodcast: https://fintechconfidential.com/listenNotifications: https://fintechconfidential.com/accessLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fintechconfidentialX: https://x.com/FTconfidentialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fintechconfidentialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fintechconfidentialSupportersUnder: Streamline your application and underwriting process by digitizing PDFs for digital signature. under.io/ftcSkyflow: Zero-trust data privacy vault delivered as an API covering PCI, CCPA, GDPR, and SOC 2 compliance. skyflowsecure.comHawk AI: Real-time payment screening, ML transaction monitoring, and dynamic customer risk rating to fight fraud and financial crime. gethawkai.comAbout the GuestsSyed Raza is a Managing Director at FTI Consulting with over 30 years in risk management and regulatory compliance.

En Capital Intereconomía, la Tertulia Capital analiza la actualidad económica y política junto a Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting; Ignacio García de Vinuesa, economista; y Fernando Gómez-Calcerrada, abogado del despacho RLD. El debate pone el foco en el nuevo récord de deuda pública, que alcanza los 724.000 millones de euros, aunque moderándose hasta el 101,6% del PIB en marzo. También se analiza el impacto económico del encarecimiento de los fertilizantes, con ayudas que el sector considera insuficientes, y la fortaleza del turismo internacional, que supera los 10 millones de pasajeros pese a la tensión geopolítica y la guerra en Oriente Próximo. Sobre la mesa, además, el mercado inmobiliario y el dato de que menos del 3% de los propietarios dispone de una vivienda vacía en España. En la Entrevista Capital, Rafael Pampillón, catedrático de Economía de la Universidad CEU San Pablo y de la Universidad de Villanueva, analiza las principales conclusiones de la reunión del G7. El economista destaca cómo todos los bloques coinciden en que la guerra restará crecimiento y aumentará la inflación, aunque con respuestas muy distintas: sanciones desde EE.UU., medidas energéticas y de diversificación en Europa y más gasto público en Japón para amortiguar el impacto económico. Terminamos la hora con el análisis de preapertura de las bolsas junto a David Cortina, responsable de renta variable de Santander Private Banking.
This week on That Tech Pod, Kevin and Laura talk with David Turner, Global Leader of Data & Analytics and Co-Leader of AI at FTI Consulting, about what it really means to operate at the center of data, AI, and high-stakes problem solving.David's career path might look straightforward, from Arthur Andersen to Capital One and then more than two decades at FTI, but he explains it was less about a master plan and more about finding the right environments and teams. Consulting, for him, became the place where he could continuously solve new, complex problems, often stepping in when companies are facing moments that feel existential.The conversation dives into AI quickly, cutting through the hype. David focuses on what actually works: real use cases, hands-on experience, and teams actively experimenting with tools. His view is that AI isn't something you can understand from a slide deck. It's a skill you build by using it, and the companies moving fastest are the ones sharing what's working internally. One of the biggest themes is how AI is reshaping the economics of consulting. If technology compresses time to insight, what happens to the billable hour? David doesn't see a clean break, but he does see a shift. Expertise becomes more valuable, and firms will need to get more creative with pricing, blending traditional models with outcome-based approaches depending on the work. They also spend time on risk, shaped in part by David's early experience during the collapse of Arthur Andersen. That moment reinforced that no firm is immune, and it continues to influence how he balances innovation with caution, especially in today's AI-driven environment. This is a grounded look at where AI is actually making an impact and where the real challenges still are.David Turner is the Global Leader of Data and Analytics and Co-Leader of AI at FTI Consulting, and now serves as the firm's Chief Technology Officer for client-facing technology. He works with executive teams on high-stakes challenges across investigations, litigation, compliance, and corporate transformation, helping organizations turn data into a real asset using advanced analytics and responsible AI. Over the course of his career, he's advised Fortune 500 companies, global law firms, and public sector clients, and has played a key role in shaping FTI's approach to AI and client-facing solutions.
At a time when capital markets remain volatile and fundamentals continue to shift, property appraisals are no longer a straightforward exercise. In this episode of FTI Experts' Hub, Commercial Property Executive Senior Editor Laura Valean sits down with Mark Dunec, co-leader of Real Estate Valuation Services at FTI Consulting, to unpack a common challenge in today's commercial real estate market: diverging property valuations. While differences in appraisals are often most visible in litigation settings, they can also stem from deeper issues, ranging from inconsistent assumptions and flawed methodologies to a fundamental misunderstanding of the valuation problem itself, according to Dunec. If you're a CRE professional navigating refinancing, acquisitions or asset management decisions, this episode will offer you a timely and practical look at how valuations are being formed today, and how to avoid costly surprises in an increasingly complex environment.

The AI infrastructure boom is rapidly reshaping how the data center industry thinks about power. What was once a relatively straightforward utility procurement exercise is evolving into a complex strategy spanning onsite generation, fuel logistics, financing, and system architecture. That reality framed a recent special edition of The Data Center Frontier Show Podcast, which recast and updated a pivotal DCF Trends Summit 2025 session: From Grid to Onsite Powering: Optimizing Energy Behind the Meter for Data Centers. Moderated by Fengrong Li, Senior Managing Director at FTI Consulting, the panel explored how operators are responding as interconnection timelines stretch and AI workloads surge. Li's framing emphasized a core shift: onsite power is moving from contingency planning to critical-path infrastructure. From the OEM perspective, David Blank of Siemens Energy noted that behind-the-meter deployments have accelerated sharply over the past year as developers confront multi-year waits for firm utility capacity. “Everyone would prefer grid power,” Blank said. “But in many cases, reliable access isn't available for five, ten, even ten-plus years.” Panelists agreed that AI's scale and speed are driving a structural rethink. Brian Gitt of Oklo described the moment as a return to industrial roots, with large loads once again building dedicated generation to meet growth timelines. At the same time, new technical pressures are emerging. AI clusters can produce sharp load swings, forcing developers to deploy fast-response buffering technologies such as batteries, flywheels, and supercapacitors to maintain stability. Despite differing technology paths—including gas turbines, hydrogen fuel cells, and advanced nuclear—the panel aligned on one common theme: modularity. Phased power blocks increasingly mirror how AI campuses are actually built and financed. The discussion also highlighted the growing importance of contract structures. Long-term offtake commitments, capacity reservations, and credit support are increasingly required to unlock equipment queues and fuel supply. Other panelists included Marty Trivette of AlphaStruxure and Yuval Bachar of ECL. The event was hosted by Data Center Frontier's Matt Vincent. The takeaway was clear: in the AI era, energy strategy has moved to the critical path—and for many operators, that path now runs behind the meter.
Reed Smith partner Anthony Diana sits down with Dera Nevin of FTI Consulting to explore how AI-enabled e-discovery is transforming litigation-and why the best time to adopt these tools is now. From accelerating early case assessment to revolutionizing privilege review workflows, Anthony and Dera break down where generative AI is already delivering real results-not just theoretical possibilities. They discuss how forward-thinking legal teams are training large language models to surface key documents, generate case timelines, and dramatically reduce time-to-knowledge on complex matters.
Offshore wind once looked like a natural play for oil majors: big offshore projects, complex engineering, and familiar operating conditions. But as costs and interest rates have risen, the sector's economics have started to clash with the companies' return expectations. This has revealed a business model where capital is invested upfront, payback is slow, and the competitive advantage often lies in power market and contracting expertise, rather than just offshore execution. In this episode, host Eklavya Gupte is joined by Alex Blackburne, senior reporter at S&P Global Energy, to unpack the shifting strategies of European oil majors in offshore wind. We also hear from Julio Dal Poz, managing director in the energy transition practice at FTI Consulting, who explains why offshore wind has proven to be a challenging fit for companies accustomed to quicker returns and greater upside potential.

En Capital Intereconomía hemos analizado la actualidad política y económica en una nueva Tertulia Capital, marcada por el debate sobre las pensiones y la euforia de los mercados. En la tertulia han participado Ignacio García de Vinuesa, economista; Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting, y Gonzalo Garnica, consultor empresarial, quienes han abordado la decisión del Gobierno de trocear el decreto ómnibus para sacar adelante la revalorización de las pensiones, así como el fuerte rally bursátil que ha llevado al Ibex 35 a superar los 18.000 puntos.

En Capital Intereconomía celebramos una nueva Tertulia Capital junto a Fernando Gómez-Calcerrada, abogado del despacho RLD; Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting; y Gonzalo Garnica, consultor empresarial. La mesa analizó el inminente voto del Congreso de EE.UU. para reabrir el Gobierno federal, una decisión clave para despejar la incertidumbre que ha lastrado a los mercados en las últimas semanas. También se comentó la entrada del fondo Apollo como nuevo dueño del Atlético de Madrid, una operación que refuerza la tendencia de fondos internacionales a invertir en clubes de fútbol europeos. Además, los tertulianos reflexionaron sobre la despedida de Warren Buffett, que ha anunciado su sucesión con una frase que marca época: “Me voy a quedar en silencio”. Coincidieron en que su legado trasciende las inversiones y deja una filosofía basada en la paciencia, la gestión prudente y la visión a largo plazo. En la Entrevista Capital, conversamos con Javier Caballero, asesor del Fondo Gestión Boutique VI Opportunity y autor del libro “Warren y Charlie”, sobre el significado del adiós de Buffett. Caballero destacó que la sucesión está cuidadosamente planificada y que la cultura de Berkshire Hathaway garantiza continuidad. Señaló, además, que la figura de Buffett representa una forma de inversión “más humana y racional”, centrada en el valor y en las decisiones basadas en fundamentos. La jornada concluyó con el análisis de preapertura de mercados con Pablo García, director de DIVACONS-Alphavalue, quien apuntó que los inversores siguen de cerca la situación en EE.UU. y los movimientos de los grandes fondos, mientras los mercados europeos mantienen el tono positivo.
At the start of 2025 there was optimism that the global M&A market would strengthen with the expectation that inflation and interest rates would fall and a more favourable regulatory environment would exist. Yet it was a slow start amid uncertainty. The unpredictability of US trade policy under the Trump administration saw the global Economic Policy Uncertainty Index rise to a 30 year record high in early 2025, decreasing the appetite for deals. But M&A still remains a critical part of a companies growth strategy. So where will the M&A market be at the end of this year and over the next five years? And how can business leaders manage a successful M&A in today's climate and tomorrow's world? Here to discuss this further are Brian Salsberg, Snr Managing Director & Global Head of M&A at FTI Consulting and Massimo Battaini, CEO of Prysmian.Sources: FT Resources, Morrison Foerster, St.Louis Fed, McKinsey, World Uncertainty Index, JP MorganThis content is paid for by Prysmian and is produced in partnership with the Financial Times' Commercial Department.

En Capital Intereconomía hemos abierto la mañana con la tertulia capital junto a Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting; Tomás Gómez, economista; y Agustín Baeza, consultor de asuntos públicos y miembro de los 100 de COTEC. Los analistas han debatido sobre el nuevo escenario político tras la ruptura del Gobierno con Junts, un golpe a la estabilidad parlamentaria que, según Moncloa, no impedirá seguir trabajando y dialogando. En el plano económico, la atención se centra en Banco Santander, que ha logrado un beneficio récord de 10.337 millones de euros hasta septiembre, y en Nvidia, cuyas acciones rozan ya los 4,9 billones de capitalización, consolidando su liderazgo absoluto en el sector tecnológico. En la entrevista capital, hemos conversado con José Vicente Morata Estragués, presidente de la Cámara de Valencia, con motivo del primer aniversario de la DANA que devastó parte del litoral valenciano. Según el informe “Balance de la recuperación empresarial de la zona cero”, uno de cada cinco comercios afectados continúa cerrado, y alrededor de un centenar de empresas industriales no han logrado retomar la actividad con normalidad. Morata ha subrayado la necesidad de mayor apoyo institucional y agilidad en la gestión de ayudas, señalando que “la reconstrucción ha avanzado, pero muchas pymes aún necesitan un impulso financiero y logístico para volver a funcionar plenamente”.

En Capital Intereconomía, la Tertulia Capital ha reunido a Juan Rivera, socio de FTI Consulting; Eduardo Abad, presidente de UPTA; y Gonzalo Atela, abogado de Zunzunegui Securities Lawyers, para debatir sobre los temas económicos y políticos más destacados del momento. Entre ellos, ha sobresalido el “sablazo” fiscal a los autónomos, con la subida de cuotas que el Gobierno prevé para recaudar 5.741 millones de euros, una medida que ha generado fuerte polémica en el colectivo. También se ha analizado la amenaza de Donald Trump de imponer nuevos aranceles a España si no eleva su gasto en defensa, así como las reformas y decisiones fiscales en Francia, donde el primer ministro Lecornu ha suspendido la reforma de las pensiones y anunciado un impuesto a las grandes fortunas. La tertulia ha abordado además la alianza económica entre Javier Milei y Donald Trump, firmada en plena campaña argentina, y el anuncio del Gobierno español de reconvertir antiguas cárceles en viviendas protegidas, dentro de su estrategia para aumentar la oferta residencial. Otro punto relevante ha sido el preocupante incremento del absentismo laboral, que ya afecta a la mitad de los trabajadores: según los últimos datos, el 49% se ha ausentado en el último año, lo que pone en el centro del debate la productividad y la gestión de los recursos humanos en las empresas. En la Entrevista Capital, Ferrand Font, jefe de estudios de Pisos.com, ha analizado el nuevo paquete de medidas anunciado por el Gobierno para aumentar la oferta de vivienda, destacando su potencial impacto en el mercado inmobiliario, la escasez de suelo y la necesidad de colaboración público-privada para dinamizar el sector. El espacio se ha cerrado con el análisis de preapertura de los mercados, de la mano de David Cortina, responsable de renta variable en Santander Private Banking, quien ha ofrecido las primeras claves del día para los inversores en una jornada marcada por la volatilidad y la temporada de resultados.
En la tertulia de la segunda hora de Capital Intereconomía contamos con Gonzalo Garnica, consultor empresarial; José Luis Fernández Santillana, director de estudios de USO y presidente de Ceoma, y Juan Francisco Polo, senior advisor de FTI Consulting. Los temas a debate incluyeron el riesgo de cierre del Gobierno en EEUU, el incumplimiento del Ejecutivo español en la aprobación de los presupuestos por tercer año consecutivo, el impacto del gasto, la deuda y el peso del Estado sobre la libertad económica, así como el aumento del pluriempleo en un 43% en la última década. También se abordó la actualidad de BBVA, que repartirá un dividendo récord el 7 de noviembre. En la Entrevista Capital, hablamos con Jordi Casas, presidente de la Asociación de Accionistas Minoritarios de Banco Sabadell, sobre la postura crítica frente al canje propuesto por BBVA. La hora se completó con el análisis de preapertura de los mercados a cargo de Pablo García, director de DIVACONS – Alphavalue.
En la segunda hora de Capital Intereconomía la Tertulia Capital aborda la actualidad política y económica con Tomás Gómez, economista; José Ignacio Gutiérrez, vicesecretario general de la Confederación de Cuadros y Profesionales; y Juan Francisco Polo, senior advisor de FTI Consulting. Entre los temas: el pacto PSOE-Junts que obligaría a las empresas a atender en catalán, la indignación empresarial que ha generado, la primera visita oficial del canciller alemán Friedrich Merz a Moncloa y la propuesta de Bruselas de un castigo comercial contra Israel. En la Entrevista Capital, conversamos con Albert Peters, expresidente del Círculo de Directivos Alemanes en España, sobre la relevancia de la visita de Merz a Sánchez y las prioridades en seguridad y defensa.

Are you in your late 40s or beyond?If so, you have decades of valuable experience, a powerful network, and a laundry list of success metrics. But lately, you may be feeling stuck in your career. * You're no longer moving up. * You're watching your younger colleagues get promoted. * Recruiters ghost you more often now. * Job interviews stall out even when you think you interviewed well. You're too experienced for entry-level or mid-level roles. And when you aim for more senior leadership or executive roles, you discover they want someone with 25 years of experience who's only 35 years old. Heaven help you if you get laid off now. It's not a pretty job market for anyone, especially an older worker. “People laid off at higher ages are less likely to move into a new field than those who quit, said Kevin Cahill, an economist at FTI Consulting. “Ageism and higher compensation expectations can be obstacles to re-employment, he said.” (source)* It takes nearly 26 weeks, on average, for people ages 55 to 64 to find a job, compared with 19 weeks for people ages 25 to 34, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.* Older career workers who find new jobs take an 11% pay cut, on average, according to a forthcoming study Cahill co-wrote.So, why not take an early retirement? Well, I bet you're not there yet. Financially, emotionally, or physically. The sad truth is that people who retire sooner die earlier. Believe me, you're not alone in feeling this way and facing this issue. This “messy middle” of our professional careers is real, and it's brutal.But it's also where your next move can be your most powerful. I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but reinventing yourself can lead to living the best years of your life. I'm living proof, and there are lots of us who have done it. It's been over 15 years since I fled my old corporate career to pivot into something new. I built my own businesses, started working out every day, and reinvested in my most important relationships. My sense of loss and depression shifted into joy and fulfillment. I've never been happier! The Messy Middle You're not imagining things, and it's not just you. The job market has shifted under your feet while the economy has been struggling, and political chaos ensues. * Good roles are becoming rarer, and expectations are higher.* Companies are cutting layers of middle and senior management.* They are also eliminating entry-level roles and leaning on fewer employees augmented with AI. * Ageism is real (especially in tech and startups), but hard to prove. * AI is quietly replacing parts of your job.* Younger, cheaper hires are more appealing than the cost of more experienced employees.You didn't do anything wrong. But the system isn't built for you anymore.“The tide has definitely turned against tech workers,” said Catherine Bracy, the founder and chief executive of TechEquity, a nonprofit that pushes for economic inclusion in the industry. “Companies have even more leverage to use against workers, and A.I. is supercharging that.” (source)Traditional Career Advice Fails You “Just update your LinkedIn and polish your resume! Start easy applying to hundreds of jobs every week.”Yeah… no. When you've had a long, complex career, playing the “cold-apply resume” game is a sure-fire way to lose. The hiring process is automated and biased. Most online applications are dead ends, and older workers are screwed. You need a new strategy for this new game.Your leverage is different nowAt this stage of your career, you have leverage that younger people don't. Stop being shy about using your advantages!* Relationships: The network you've built for decades is more powerful than you think.* Reputation: People know your name. They've seen your work. They already trust you.* Experience: You've led, built, scaled, failed, recovered, and learned. Your insights are rare and valuable.Three paths out of the messy middle1. Reposition and rebrand2. Redesign your role3. Find more purposeI go into more detail in the podcast audio, so scroll up, hit play, and listen. Real stories of reinvention * David Jesse - Executive Product Leader, advisor, coach, and founder of Crescendo Product Group * Ha Nguyen - Founder and Managing Partner at NextStep Advisors * Maureen Wiley Clough - Host of It Gets Late Early, a podcast and community of tech employees bringing awareness to ageismNone of them waited for someone to “give them a shot.” They stopped playing the game that was rigged against them. They created their next opportunity.You can too.What to do this monthHere's your 3-step personal challenge:* Rewrite one part of the “Story of You”What's the outdated identity or job title you're clinging to? Rewrite your LinkedIn headline and About section to reflect who you are now and who you want to become. * Reignite one dormant relationshipSomeone in your network already knows your value. Reach out, reconnect, and have a real conversation. I created a free CRM to help with this. * Map out your next move If you weren't looking for a job, what kind of business might you build? What problem could you solve? How could you repackage your skills as an offer to a client? Let's define your “Next Act” togetherDoes all of this feel familiar? Did this article hit a nerve? Good! That means you're ready.You don't have to figure this out alone.
