Alternately, a K frame snub may be a better fit. My 10-6 is worlds better (trigger, comfort, accuracy) than my 36 ever was.

I think getting her involved in local club matches with one of the handguns she already owns and the two of you taking a quality 2 day handgun course together would be time and money much better spent than trying to make her hate the 442 a little less.
I would throw an APEX kit in and tell her to dry fire it to strengthen her hands. That will help her shooting with the other handguns too. Small easy to carry revolvers are very hard to shoot. I bought a colt detective special for an old girlfriend to use. ( back in 1992?) it had the pachmyr grips. she could shoot it ok for 50 rounds but after that it she got tired and it tore her hand up. She couldn’t pull back the slide on a Glock 19. She loved my HK P7. She could tear the center out if the target with the P7. She was average sized 5 5” 140 lbs but didn’t have the hand strength for many handguns. She told me she preferred the “modern convience of the autoloader” K frames with 38 wadcutter work well for for all shooters
