    If you’ve been misunderstood, it’s important to know why you’ve been misunderstood, and that involves listening more, not talking more.

      Most people seem to have understood me, and for those who haven’t, I’ve clarified. I am listening, but also responding.

        It’s very hard to tell that you’re listening. Maybe that’s something else you can work on, I’d be happy to provide feedback so you can help people feel heard and included.

          I don’t really like the condescension in your tone, it leads me to believe your advice wouldn’t be very helpful in making people feel heard.
