“These changes will roll out on February 1, so you need to be in compliance before that date. But you absolutely should not panic because when you do the four things I’m going to give you at the end of this episode, it should, if you’re computer savvy, take you no more than 30 minutes (and if you’re not so tech-savvy, it’s going to take you no more than 60 minutes”.
