What connotations does the word ‘nervous’ bring up?
For many, a knot in the stomach, maybe a slightly nauseous feeling, sweaty palms, a racing heart, jumpy…none of which are particularly pleasant.
What about ‘buzzing’? That sounds like you’re full of excitement, anticipation of something fab, lively, stimulated, euphoric even!
Now which of these words is going to make Catherine excited about walking onto that stage and getting our event kicked off in the best possible way? It’s certainly not ‘nervous’ eh? ;-)
