I've heard this referred to as "situational awareness" and "psychological safety". The former being aware of what your team is up to (and everyone being in that state); the later feeling like you ask a question without someone judging you or the team just generally treating you as a whole person.

I hang out in programming communities focused on helping others and way too often I see people asking perfectly valid questions filled with apologies and guilt over not knowing something. It's a bit sad honestly, but it's nice seeing them open up after you help tem figure it out without judgment.
