No one listens actively 100% of the time, people who are 'engaging' in the conversation have just more experience and they need less time to wrap things.
I wander off a lot, even in some important meetings, and I learned that if it is not important, who cares, if it is - then I meditate for a minute, by inhaling deep, keeping it in me, exhaling, and then keeping it again all for 4 seconds, and it brings my focus up and clears my mind a little bit.

Thank you for this feedback. I've asked the same question on a few platforms ad the answer is basically the same. No one is expecting me to 100% understand and engage with a presentation. Just gleam the most important concepts and focus on understand the "why" of the talk more than anything
