Case study
The transformation pattern. Fear -> discovery -> integration -> identity shift. She didn't drop her critique. She kept the left hand full and added the right.
Larissa matters because her skepticism was not a defect to be cured. It was part of the equipment she brought into the room.
The shift was not from critical to uncritical. It was from frozen to capable. She kept the objections, then added enough direct experience to build from a more honest place.
Practice the move
Do the Both/And
Hold the critique without letting it freeze the curiosity.
