I’m in 2-3 meetings a day as a Cybersecurity Architect. I’m fairly comfortable in these meetings now, but there are times when I have to lead a meeting and the anticipatory anxiety gets to me, but I make my way through. Sure I might block here and there, but my colleagues in attendance are quite respectful when I need to talk. Sometimes I overthink it too much but it all works out ok.
