It’s totally natural! As someone who has to conduct the interview nowadays, just know that I get nervous as well before going and conducting them, too.
As someone being interviewed, I found that for me really practicing my “script” helps calm the nerves. Interviewing is really just telling a series of scripted stories, so have several lined up and just practice telling them. Interview questions are incredibly repetitive - so you can really find the stories that try to highlight your strengths and then finding a time in the interview to deploy them.
Lastly, something that helps calm my nerves is really knowing that I have some power here, we both have the ability to say no to the opportunity. So, it’s a meeting to really determine if I have the skillset that’s desired by the company and if the fit is good for me as an individual. Remembering the power balance can give you a little bit of swagger back.
Best of luck, OP!!

I have two young kids, so it’s a little skewed to keep them functioning. I’ve always been an early top bed person, but as I’ve gotten older, my wake-up’s have gotten consistently earlier.
The problem I have nowadays is staying asleep. A life in the military has made it easy to get up even when I’m exhausted, but tough to settle down and go back to sleep. I find that consistent exercise is critical to my sleep schedule. As long as I exercise, I can stay asleep through the night. If my workout schedule gets off, I have a lot of 0400 wakeups.
Officers who haven’t resigned their commissions (either retired or finished with their active service obligation) default into the IRR. This is likely some sort of speciality skillset group that’s about to get a very unwelcome piece of certified mail. It’s a bad day to speak Russian…
