Need advice for social anxiety at new job

I need advice!! so I just started a new job in a salon as a hairstylist and I seem to have the WORST anxiety when it comes to talking to my clients and the other employees. I am so bad at starting conversations and keeping them going without being awkward and anxious, does anyone have any ideas to help me? please and thank you 😁

I deal with that too. I’ve cried and have panic attacks about it. Um, idk, what usually helps me is trying to remember that people are more forgiving than I think. And they don’t judge those little mistakes I make which are huge in my head. And I also try to affirm my worth to myself, so I’ll try to think about the fact that whatever I think is interesting, people will join in if I just share it, vulnerability. It’s super difficult, so don’t worry if this advice doesn’t always work :) it doesn’t always work for me either
