Oof - sorry to hear that Mozza - but consider others' perspectives on it and that may help with any sting. The job part was emotional, and I still think it was good to share in that.
This part is back to business - that's okay. If we remove the emotion. Is what she is suggesting okay for you? Would making that contact normally be something she would do? Do you both have your own L's? If so - she would contact hers and you yours presumably?? I think it's fine to clarify in pleasant terms how you expect this to work.
I think the main thing is not to react emotionally to what just happened. Just switch from 'warm congrats' to 'business' mode.....
Take care my friend xx
