curious about leaning into the other end of the spectrum and embracing this to see how it is responded to when i’m not papering over this capability

Replying to
fwiw i try to remember very specific things about e.g. what i talked about with people, what i liked about interacting with them, and usually that goes over very well, ime people are very flattered

this is a helpful frame, using the capability to show people how you see them
will try leaning into this 🙏
