Make eye contact, because that’s what alphas do. Stand up tall, because it summons a sense of pride. Keep your movements simple and direct to show that you aren’t flustered. Lift your eyebrows so you look unconcerned. Take deep breaths because they inflate your chest and hide your collapsing soul. I wrote down a cryptic list to remind myself: Stand up. Lift. Breathe. Inflate.
