Got to perform stand up at the @royalsociety.org last night! What an amazing venue, and I got to catch up with my lovely former colleagues @katedoingscience.bsky.social and @sanahannan.bsky.social - Lancaster clearly makes very funny scientists! Huge thanks to @drstevex.bsky.social for inviting me.

Wow! Incredible!! 🤩

Friends, I need your help!

What are some of the best bits of advice or lessons learnt in relation to fear or worries around public speaking?

Or, what would you tell your younger self about public speaking?!

Any insights much appreciated!
