112. Modern Day Etiquette

The After 30 Podcast

What does etiquette even mean today!? Our world is culturally diverse and dynamic, and so highly digital and casual - hardly anyone seems to abide by the rules and standards of "traditional etiquette" today. So does that matter? Should we care? What should we still be making sure we know and do?

We chat with etiquette expert Karen Cleveland about how etiquette has changed, what etiquette is appropriate today in various settings like dinner parties, corporate functions, dating and new baby life, why the heart of etiquette is still effing important, and what we can do to pay attention to our ever demanding environment and varied cultural contexts.

A few of our favourite moments:

• Use etiquette to legitimize how you feel? 4:09

• Why small talk matters. 8:16
• Digital etiquette. 12:18
