   I presented to a room full of people and did not die. That was an accomplishment for me.

     @wendynather @jerry @davep I’ve finally arrived at that stage in my career where I have a couple of large slide sets, and whenever I need to do a presentation, I just pull out the relevant slides.

     It (hopefully) comes across as smooth and professional. But that’s purely because I’ve presented the same thing dozens of times!

     @davep I decided to do this because I knew I wasn’t going to get better by continuing to hide at home

     @jerry @davep Glad you are both working on it. We need your smarts out front and center.

     If you do it enough, it does get better. You get too tired to care 😝

     @jerry That's the one thing that has consistently terrified me over my career. I've recently improved somewhat, but insist I get enough time to prep and rehearse (which makes a huge difference for me).
