Novelty you expect is easier to absorb.

Unexpected novelty is terrifying.

The things you thought were nailed down turn out to be free floating.

You have no solid ground, nothing to take for granted.

A swirling chaos abyss.

Terrifying!

How can you proactively create spaces where novelty is a gift, because a) you're expecting it and b) the rules of the space make it unable to kill you?

Psychologically safe spaces, where you've done the work to earn each other's non-transactional trust, can be environments where novel, unsafe ideas are easier to absorb.
