YouTube offered me a personal counseling session but I hesitate doing it

Posting Mad!
5 weeks ago YouTube wrote to me an E-Mail, that they offer me a personal counseling session. I didn't respond to it but no they sent me a reminder about it and I think about it again.
I so far hesitated to accept the offer.
1. I already read pretty much every YouTube Help page. Do you think they will tell me other things than what I can read there?
2. I don't know what to talk about with them. Like...I don't have any questions.
3. I don't like talking to strangers :p In fact, I stutter, what can make it slightly awkward to talk to strangers when they don't know why I don't speak fluently.

What are your thoughts on it? Any other reasons why it could be valuable for me to accept the offer? As I said, it's for me quite a challenge to talk to strangers on the phone so I really need a reason to do so :p
 
They didn't specify what it was about? If you had broken a rule or if you needed some help with something?

No, they said something like "in the past months your channel grew significantly and you keep gaining subscribers. I want to support you, to make your channel even better."
Guess it's a standard email they sent to all channels eligible for it.
 
As long as it's a legit email from YT. I've seen a few emails like this before that were from Networks whom just wanted to milk you dry from all of your success.

I've had a few of these sessions. Their advice isn't anything revolutionary but I definitely recommend you do it because you will get the name and email address of a real YouTube employee. That could be very valuable in the future. These people consult for other big channels & maybe they know what someone else in your niche is doing to grow. My partner manager also consults for a very very big channel and he was able to draw on his experience to help me. You have nothing to lose. ^^

The partner manager is certainly a valid point. Can be helpful when getting into troubles.
