Relax. View it as a conversation rather than something to be rehearsed and regurgitated. Know your topic and have quick bullets - not text you plan to read word for word - that you can glance at to remind you of the key points.

Good luck OP! Practice a few times tonight after outlining your thoughts on paper. Enjoy this next step, and keep it in your pocket that your partner/director have confidence that you can do this or they wouldn't ask you.

Seconding an update.

^Thirded!

One thing I've tried to do with my junior team members is find ways for them to present their piece of the work to the client. Won't happen every time - wouldn't want to haul 10 people to a meeting with 2 clients for instance - but you should ask for this and it's great experience when you have the opportunity. And the team is there to back you up.
