Principle 5: Experience, Not Advice

We share experience, not advice. We do not interpret, diagnose, or treat one another.

Commentary

Protects the peer-to-peer character of the practice by structurally ruling out an expert/therapeutic posture. Sharing is testimony, not prescription.

Status notes

v3, ready for team review. Named in source Open Questions as load-bearing. Also named (with Principle 9 and 10) as in direct tension with the superseded Facilitator Development Pathway — see facilitator-pathway-vs-no-professional-class.
