I wouldn’t burden her with your past experience of your personal network. The motivations of them and her are likely different - one helping you out the other has a genuine interest. Make it easy for her to join but she has to add net value so just make that clear. Given her interest in the area she may also be looking to get more insight into how you’re approaching things so you might want a non compete. It’s probably hard to enforce even if you bothered but her reaction to it should be telling.
