A very sad one too, realizing how easy and smooth everything went, it's sad that I ever thought I couldn't do smth like this before. Despite me actually stuttering (multiple times) throughout the meeting, no one ever seemed to care. They complimented me for the way I explained the topic, they didn't hesitate to ask me questions and didn't give me at all the impression that my occasional stutter was "weird" or made them feel uncomfortable. Realizing that my insecurities were the only thing limiting me and not my stutter in the slightest makes every excuse I made before not to engage in smth like this just seem utterly ridiculous :/
