Teach the pause out loud

Culture is what people rehearse together.

Making ‘wait five minutes’ a shared pack habit.

Say it in meetups and chats: any money move with a deadline gets a pause.

Practice the sentence until it feels ordinary, not awkward.

Mods can model it by slowing threads instead of amplifying urgency.

Belonging is stronger when the pause is social, not solitary shame.
