When creative groups become too comfortable to grow

My creative writing group has been meeting for two years and we've gotten really good at giving each other feedback, but lately I feel like we're all playing it safe and not pushing each other to take real risks with our work. We've become too comfortable and I think it's making us all worse writers.
