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 episode 225: Kim Scott | Care Personally, Challenge Directly with Radical Candor? How should I handle my frustration about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—when Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently? Additionally, I have a weird relationship with 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.

Will this change help her loosen her resistance too?
