Honest take, because I wish someone had told me this earlier.
Everything you will read about family will make it sound more complicated than it is. Here is what 8 years of working with mean has actually taught me.
The most common trap is spending too long on research instead of doing.
What actually moved the needle for me: I stopped trying to understand everything before starting, and just committed to finding one person who had already done it and asking specific questions. After that, things started moving much faster.
The one thing I would prioritise: find a concrete real-world use case for family in your own life or work.
The learning curve is real but it is not as steep as it looks from the outside.
