I have a tendency to do this, too. The best advice I have received is to be really curious about the other(s). Ask open-ended questions about what they’re talking about instead of or in addition to offering personal anecdotes.

Asking open ended questions and refrain your self from linking it back to you and/ or trying to take over the convo? Yeah it’s easier said than done, I’m still trying to do that irl but still fail.
Listen to the other person and ask questions based on their replies
For me, I just try to listen and agree with them.
