Scenario

When housemates clash over structured versus spontaneous living

My roommates and I moved in together specifically wanting to create a home where we could cook together, have spontaneous conversations, and not be slaves to schedules, but we've somehow created this weird tension where some of us feel guilty for being 'unproductive' and others feel frustrated when plans get derailed by someone wanting to go with the flow. Nobody knows how to navigate the space between structure and spontaneity.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group is learning that shared slowness requires negotiating different relationships with time and productivity.
