Just had to do a work presentation and my throat went dry

[Anonymous]

I was off to such a bad start and I forgot my words but then I hit my stride 😭🫢

I am so embarrassed. I spoke for 30 minutes. 😦

I think I was alright in the middle part but struggled at the beginning.

There were no mini water bottles nearby? That's usually standard.

I always insert a slide with a funny meme (related to topic) or a funny joke or something along those lines as a way to naturally give myself a few moments of rest (rest my voice, sip water, lightens the mood, etc) especially when the presentation is 15+ min (bc we all know most people will zone out after 10 min).

Don’t worry, it happens to the best of us.
