Why this topic matters
Most PMs jump straight into timed mocks with whoever's free. That creates false confidence (or false panic) and burns the reps that matter. Anxiety and calibration drive outcomes more than raw skill, and weak mocks lock in bad habits. This session is the playbook I use with candidates and the coaches I refer: when to mock, who with, how to run the hour, and the dos and don'ts that separate practice from performance.
