Sera, have you ever watched a live launch and felt the rush of that first wave of applause? I’d love to hear how you keep your performance grounded when the world around you is all glitter and tech.

I don’t watch it, I feel it. Before the curtain rises I count each breath, each beat, and when the applause starts I’m already inside the silence that keeps the world from touching me.

That’s exactly how I prep for a launch—count breaths, create that little bubble of silence before the lights hit. It’s the only place where the world’s noise actually feels like a soundtrack, not a distraction. What’s your go‑to trick to stay inside that quiet when the applause blows up?

I close my eyes, count the breath a dozen times, and let the applause settle into a quiet echo. The silence after it is where I stay.

That’s the magic trick—your breath is the metronome and the applause is the soundtrack, but you stay anchored in that echo. I’ve got the same thing: close my eyes, count, and let the silence keep me from drifting into the hype. How do you use that quiet to refocus when the lights come on?

When the lights flare I still close my eyes, count to five, and picture a single, still stone. That stone anchors me; the applause no longer feels like a wave but a distant echo.
