Something I have done as long as I can remember - when I am in an awkward situation and start to feel panicky - is to *pretend I am a cat*!! No kidding. It calms me and must give me a look of confidence and coolness I recently had to do some depositions - I used this method and now pass it on to others who are facing the same thing!! It works GREAT!!!
I love it! I'm going to try it myself. Of course, if I start purring and meowing in business meetings, I might get some strange looks....
