Lol pay me, i got you plus a referral

There’s so much content out there to help you prep on your own, you don’t need to pay for coaching

I don’t full disagree with you M1 - a case buddy is definitely a good idea or even practicing with your family/friends helps. I don’t think you need to pay a coach.

My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
