I am going to go back and re-read your threads and see if I can think of any radical 180s (coming at it with a beginners mind and all that). Is that OK?
I think asking her how things can go forward actually sounds like a pretty good (and radical) 180. But as the others have posted, all ducks would need to be a row before doing that.....any ideas when you're going to do it?
