Like you, Clive, Olive and Joanna all said that the most important thing to do is to prepare, prepare, prepare. I didn't feature that in the podcast, I should have. Another thing that everyone mentioned was how important the connection to the audience is. That is something that is more subjective though and not as easily "practiced".

    You bit the apple though and you can't put the genie back in the bottle
-Too true. That said, I think in the long run I am better off with my new manageable fear. It forces me to be more prepared and as such I am now a better public speaker imo.
