User: "I download all of my meeting recordings and put them in a folder. Tell me all the times I've subtly avoided conflict."
Output:
# Conflict Avoidance Patterns
Found 23 instances across 15 meetings where you used indirect
communication or avoided addressing tensions directly.
## Pattern: Hedging on Critical Feedback
**Frequency**: 8 times across 7 meetings
**Example 1: 1:1 with Sarah** - 00:14:32
**What Happened**:
> "So, I was thinking... maybe we could, like, potentially
> consider looking at the timeline again? I mean, if you
> think that makes sense. But whatever you think is best!"
**Why This Matters**:
You needed to address that Sarah's project was behind schedule,
but the hedging language ("maybe", "potentially", "if you think")
and the deflection at the end ("whatever you think") made it easy
for her to miss the urgency.
**Better Approach**:
"Sarah, the project is two weeks behind schedule. We need to
discuss what's blocking progress and create a new timeline
today."

## Recommendations
1. **Name the issue directly** in the first sentence
2. **Remove hedging words** like "maybe," "kind of," "sort of"
3. **Ask specific questions** instead of hinting
4. **Schedule difficult conversations** instead of raising them casually
