We see life through the framework of our own experiences and perspectives.

Your frameworks are shaped by what you have lived through: experiences, relationships, beliefs, and the meaning you made from them.

Most people do not notice the framework because it has become familiar. The Lab helps you recognize it, see how it shapes your life, and develop a new one on purpose.

Mental Frameworks influence what you notice, what you expect, what you make things mean, and how you respond. They aren’t inherently good or bad. Many developed for a reason. But a framework that once helped you navigate your life may create friction in the life you’re trying to build now. The work isn’t to eliminate your frameworks. It’s to recognize when one is running and decide whether it still fits.

You may experience scarcity around finances, but not relationships. Performance may become active at work but disappear with friends. Overfunctioning may show up in your family while approval shapes your romantic life. That’s why the Lab looks not only at which frameworks are active, but where they are active.
