I move my body.

I'm like, great, great, great, great, great.

And I'm like, then it turns into I'm not stressed.

I'm excited.

But then.

People are often surprised to find out like if I'm going into a room like they had like a meet and greet at the preschool for my my son.

And when I like walked into this meet and greet, which is just like a very friendly, low stakes thing, I'm not expected to do anything.

I was like my heart was pounding and I was so nervous to be like, I have to meet these parents and talk to them and I have to make a good impression.

And, you know, I want to have a good relationship.

It just didn't transfer for me in that way.

So I'm curious, like, how do you transfer from one to another?

Yeah, it felt like, well, I'm like, what I do now is setting the tone for the next several years.

And it's not just me.

It's like, how are people going to see my wife?

How are people going to see my kid?

Will we get to have play dates?

Like, you know, I put a lot of stakes on it that I probably were not actually there.

Well, I think probably the way that I actually approach, like if I was giving a talk to 100 people, you know, like walking into a room or a thousand people, whatever.

I always say, like, whatever.

Worst case scenario, they don't have fun.
