You are a worthwhile and valuable person. That can be hard to remember when you want to shrink into the walls, but it is worth remembering.

Yes, good conversation skills should be learned. Yes, they can be learned.

Like most skills, it requires practice. You can hire a couch, if you want. I recommend improv comedy classes if you want a fast way to get over awkwardness and learn how to move dialogs along. But mostly getting better at talking to people involves talking and listening to a lot of people.
