So technically, we don't need to compare our brains to others. Not everybody has a perfect memory in all the different dimensions of their brain. We have three types of memories: Cognitive, for facts and events; Motor, for our coordination and movements in physical activities such as sports, tennis, or basketball, or simply walking; and lastly, Working Memory, which I believe is the short-term memory where we keep in mind what we just read or say, and can correlate with what we will say afterward.

There are also 4 things that make memories stick:

RepetitionAssociation - Search about the "memory palace" techniqueNovelty - like something new or a surpriseEmotional Resonance - if we feel happy or sad about the memory

Furthermore, if you are giving a presentation or standing in front of a crowd, you can do physical activity or warm up, as it improves our mood, focus, attention, speaking, and reaction time.

Coffee is neither inherently bad nor good. It is a stimulant, and for some, it is important for a quick boost of energy. But overstimulation is bad, so always remember that. Do your own experiment to determine how much coffee is enough for your level of performance. Alternatively, neuroscientists suggest that we can try the "hot-cold shower" technique, where you start bathing with hot water and later hop into the cold, as this is a natural stimulant.
