hoserhobbes covered what I meant.

OBS creates a virtual webcam you can use as input for whatever video chat program you're using. In OBS you can switch between and composite "sources" including your screen, media files, actual webcams, etc.

There is a slight learning curve but it's incredibly powerful and there's tons of tutorials online -- a lot of streamers use it for that reason. Sharing your screen is fairly easy.
