Thank you. It touches me. I receive it in my beingness. Before reading "decalibration is the work of artists", what came to me was "decalibration is the work of creatives". many resonant touch points and what stays with me is (1) the clarity of naming those concepts (2) "decalibration - it must be done with elegance and in a way that isn’t experienced as psychologically violent" ... a powerful statement and nudge I receive myself in relation to "decalibrating" youth/young adults.

"the Great Decalibration" - Ah! Yes! the delicacy of these times.

ps: thank you A.M., Joan and Rebecca for choosing "ReCalibration" as the theme of February - it is very timely at both individual and collective levels.

thanks a.m. (+ ajar crew) for everything here that inspires me to think and grow…particularly for naming what I didn’t know I needed to hear…artist. despite my love for (social) science, I am a practitioner who has said “eh…it’s more art than science” more times than I can count…in my experience, when the trust is high, this is a powerful transitional point (a portal?) to getting somewhere more meaningful…alas, this artsy approach doesn’t lend itself to the tyranny of “best practices” or “work breakdown structures”…but I digress, happily 💭🙏🏻❤️✌🏻
