What does it mean when you realize you may have been making a mistake or taken criticism in a negative or defensive way on a project, as discussed in the episode "Heather Monahan - Top 50 Keynote Speaker & Best-Selling Author | How to Create Confidence" and the clip "Breaking the Silence"? I'm also frustrated about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed. Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently, but overall, I have a weird relationship with this one manager at work. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will this change help her loosen her resistance too?

I have a question about the episode Heather Monahan - Top 50 Keynote Speaker & Best-Selling Author | How to Create Confidence and the clip New Perspectives in Leadership. I'm also frustrated about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—during my interactions with one manager at work. Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently, but overall, I have a weird relationship with this one manager. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. She rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself in the middle of presentations without letting me continue. It's very different from everyone else there. While it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. How should I approach this situation?
