Speak to your audience beforehand to see what is happening for them that day. Anticipate what you might be asked in advance. Use straightforward language and think about your audience beforehand. Also the Wonder Woman and Superman pose can help to perform in advance. It can help to reframe nerves to excitement, and actually say that aloud to yourself.
