Episode 90: How To Have Adult AF Etiquette This Holiday Season, with Myka Meire
The holiday parties have officially begun so this week we’re throwing it back to one of our favourite episodes from 2021 on an often underappreciated topic… modern etiquette! But fear not, this is NOT a stuffy table manners lecture about minding your P’s and Q’s.
According to our guest, etiquette expert Myka Meier, modern etiquette is about being kind, thoughtful and respectful, presenting your best self, and having the emotional intelligence and social skills to go anywhere with confidence. Sign us up!
Myka has been coined the “Marie Kondo of etiquette,” is the author of two best-selling etiquette books and even trained in London under a member of The Royal Household of the Queen. She started Beaumont Etiquette which offers courses on etiquette that are super relevant to society today and co-founded The Plaza Hotel’s Finishing Program. She brings a fresh and modern perspective to manners, breaking down the stereotype that etiquette is stuffy or outdated.
Join us as she answers all our Qs on:
When you should bring a hostess gift
How to (politely) remind someone to pay you back
When you should send a thank you note
How to set a standard table setting
Handling the bill on a first date
How to network and self-promote tastefully
The 101 on business dining etiquette
We hope this episode empowers you to walk into your next holiday party or event feeling totally prepared and confident!
