Comfort is not the absence of challenge.
It is the presence of trust.
When people feel safe enough to speak, to try, and even to fail, something rare begins to grow.
The work becomes more honest.
The atmosphere less heavy.
The collective effort stronger.
Fostering comfort does not mean lowering expectations.
It means creating the conditions for others to rise to them with confidence.
In learning to hold that space for others,
I begin to hold it for myself too.
Growth needs safety as much as it needs effort.
And both begin with how we choose to listen.
