Using proper etiquette is very important in relating to others but something we aren’t always sure how to navigate. Jacqueline Whitmore, International Etiquette expert is going to help us with etiquette tips for traveling during the holidays and how to handle difficult conversations during this polarized time where even family and friends aren’t on the same page. She also explains how to greet people when heading back to work events or at the office and even how to raise kind children.
If you want to bring kindness and your best self to these situations, you’ll want to tune into to this conversation. I particularly appreciated Jacqueline’s definition of etiquette as it goes way beyond which fork to use.
