It was our first meeting, so it was just feeling out each other at the moment. But I have a feeling that Sam's directness will help me remove the uncertainty and excess from my thought processes and overthinking.

Actually really enjoyed the session. It was better than I expected. I’m not really sure what I expected. I appreciate the directness. I’m looking forward to the next session.
