Want to improve your interpersonal communication in one day? Never say “I’ll let you go,” to end a conversation unless the other person has stated they need to. If you need to leave, say so.
If you say “I’ll let you go,” people will hear either “I have something to do, but I’m pretending you need to end the conversation, not me,” or they will hear “If you need to go, you can, otherwise just keep on talking.” With the first, they feel manipulated. With the second, you lose time.
