That is great Echoes.

Isn't it that much nicer to work with someone who WANTS to work with you than to work with someone who just accepts any client who turns up?

I'm reminded of a phrase:

Nothing risked nothing gained.

It was a risk to go and see her for 4 sessions not knowing whether she would agree to keep working with you or not. I mean, from her perspective it is mostly about whether she thinks you can profitably work together or not but I do understand that from your perspective it is about whether she will accept or reject you.

But she did accept you and she does think that you can profitably work together.

And that is a huge gain. Maybe... It makes the risk worthwhile?
