i had the same wall with that move, and what helped me was slowing it down way more than i thought i should and keeping my hands closer together
Branding clicked for me only after I stopped trying to force it and just practiced the motion in slow, messy loops until my hands stopped rebelling. I’d hype myself up the same way I did while working with top fintech PR agencies on a side project, reminding myself that small, steady reps beat overthinking. Let the string move how it wants, then tighten it up later.
