The feds raided me in 2023 and my lawyer Diane Bass told me to call White Collar Advice. On my first call with Justin he asked me, “what is success for you?” I told him I have a wife and five kids and I wanted to use this time the right way and do everything I could to get the best outcome. He asked, “how do you do that?” I said I wasn’t sure, that’s why Diane told me to call. He said, “you create something that doesn’t exist. An asset, a story, something to build on. The government is creating, so should you. There’s no other way to change how they see you.”So I did. I built my life story and timeline, a release plan, more than 100 hours of volunteer work, and I wrote my book Recalibrate. I got involved with their nonprofit because I wanted to help people in prison and back the policy work they’re doing. At home my wife and kids could see I was working, not just sitting around waiting. I also started sharing my story on Instagram and people reach out to me there all the time.Probation wanted 36 months. Judge Holcomb gave me a year and a day and he discussed my volunteer work with Prison Professors and speaking at USC Business School with Justin. Even if I had gotten the 36, the last couple years have been fulfilling and productive through a tough situation. The sooner you get prepared for life after prison the better. The team helped me use my time the right way.One more thing. After sentencing these prison consultants started calling, telling me they could do this or that. Former BOP staff too. They all claimed to do things they never actually did. Do your due diligence. Confirm people can really help you and that they’ve done it before. The right team makes a big difference. I am so thankful to this team I have referred them to at least 10 people who found me on Instagram. I don’t take a penny. I just want others to get the same help I did.If you want to talk, I’m here until I go to prison on October 10. Feel free to write me at Lompoc.Mathew Bowyer
