My new line manager is really senior, how to not be intimidated?

I'm a junior member of the team (a year into an entry-level position), and they are the most senior. My line manager is leaving, and I found out who my new line manager is today and I'm feeling quite nervous about it. I don't know my new manager well at all, I don't work with them on a day-to-day basis like I do with my manager.

At our company we have to have weekly 30 minute 1:1s for our line manager, and I have no idea how to utilise these and what my new manager's expectations will be. My current line manager is really laid back and they quite casual chats about what I've been working on that week.

Does anyone have any advice with adapting to having a new manager?

Very similar post from a few months back if this helps. Weirdly similar!
