Yeah Rough, but remember she's going to be JUST as nervous and on edge as you are (most likely)... So she absolutely could clam up or just start asking open ended questions...
But you are already well prepared... You've got your validating hat on, you're ready with your "I need some time to think about that" response to things you're unsure of... and you've got a boatload of other lessons you've learned in the back of your head.
VERY helpful posts AT, thanks for being here for me buddy. Good point, here’s my take on ^^^^^^Please let me know what you think? If it's a tough open ended question I don't want to use the "I will get back to you" line to much. BTW, this is just an example.
W says “So Rough, how are you feeling about us? What do you want to do?”
"That’s a really good question W. I’ve put a lot of thought into this however you told me you wanted to talk, what are some of the things you wanted to talk about?"
I shouldn't be to evasive or passive aggressive but I think it flows well. One other point, I am NOT very good at memorizing long answers, I don’t do well with that. If it’s a short one liner, yeah, no problems.
