So there's a book called getting the love you want it was like huge I think in the 90s and then maybe the early 2000s.
I have found the book Getting the Love You Want and some of the frameworks asking for redos, having a shared language that allows you to, I suppose, resolve things with shorthand, but agreeing upfront that you are going to have that shared language and those practices at least for a period of time as an experiment, I think is.
