## Prompt

```text
Coach me for an upcoming talk.

**Talk:** [TOPIC, audience, length, format (in person / online)]
**My experience level:** [beginner / some experience / experienced]
**What worries me:** [e.g. nerves, rambling, filler words, Q&A, keeping attention]
**My script or outline (optional):** [PASTE]

Give me:
1. **Structure check** — is the opening strong, is there one clear message, does it end with impact? Suggest specific fixes.
2. **Delivery plan** — pacing, pauses, where to emphasize, how to use slides without reading them.
3. **Nerves** — practical techniques for before and during.
4. **Engagement** — 2–3 ways to involve this audience.
5. **Rehearsal plan** — what to practice, how many times, and how to get useful feedback.

Then offer to run a mock Q&A: ask me one tough question at a time and give feedback on each answer.
