Public speaking skills for an introvert/loner?

Public speaking skills for an introvert/loner?

Vanakkam makkale 🙏🏼. So Ippo prachana enna na,my bosses in my new job want me to make presentations every so often and speak about the topic of the presentation to a group of around 30-40 people (including seniors).

I'm extremely uncomfortable about being in the spotlight and left to myself,I prefer to blend into the background. I can't do that now because the boss expects me to definitely make presentations.

I'm not afraid of anyone or anything,it's just that I absolutely dislike having the spotlight on me.

If any of y'all can relate to this,how did you deal with this?

Makkalae,how do y'all deal with relentless attempts from relatives to try and interfere in your life and the choices you make.

How do I get well meaning people in my life to understand that I'm not upset when I keep to myself?

I need a lot of alone time to function properly. I get overwhelmed and overstimulated if I have to be in the presence of and talk to people.

I am happy being alone and keeping to myself. I enjoy solitude.

The problem is when well meaning people think something is wrong/I'm sad when all I'm doing is keeping to myself because I'm happier that way.

I've tried explaining to people,but they simply do not seem to understand. They think they are being supportive by trying to get me to come out of my shell when in fact I love being alone.

I do communicate when needed,but otherwise I like being left alone. How do I make them understand this without hurting them?

My nri cousin has been raving about this "just egg" vegan egg replacement. I was wondering if we have something similar here? I do miss eating eggs which I used to eat a lot of when I wasn't vegan. I'd love to try a vegan version if it's available.
