Think about it this way: failure is not if you stutter during your presentation. Failure is not trying. I give tons of presentations nowadays. I’ve stuttered as long as I can remember. I find that a presentation is like acting- think about someone who is articulate, calm, cool, collected, and act like you are that person. How would they stand? Speak? Carry themselves? Be that person. And have a plan if you know you’re going to get blocked (we always know before we stutter, right?). For me, it’s slowing waaay down when I encounter her word/syllable…. Carburetor becomes caaaaar-buuuuureaaaator. And I slide through it. Sounds like it’s going to be unusually slow, but it breaks the block and keeps me moving. But the acting like a confident cool badass is what really gets me through. Good luck. And be kind to yourself. If/when you struggle is not a failure! You got balls, do this. For yourself.
