I have a question about the episode Sheila Heen — How to Navigate Hard Conversations, the Subtle Art of Apologizing, and More and the clip Navigating Difficult Conversations. 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. 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. Will changing my attitude help her loosen her resistance too?
