À propos de ce contenu audio

In today's episode, we're stepping into the lost art of thank-you's — and the Real Simple advice column that sparked quite the conversation. After a woman wrote in wondering why her nephew never acknowledged a generous monetary gift, the columnists told her not to take it personally… because "life is busy."

But is life truly too busy for basic graciousness?

Inside this episode, we explore:

  • why being acknowledged matters more than we admit

  • how modern culture has confused convenience with connection

  • what etiquette actually is (hint: not rules — but relational beauty)

  • simple, elegant ways to bring gratitude back into your daily life

This isn't about rigid formality or perfection.
It's about presence, refinement, and the tiny rituals that make life feel more lovely.

And stay until the end for today's Little Gem:
I read a cherished handwritten letter from a friend — a reminder of how meaningful real acknowledgment can be — plus a special teaser for my upcoming YouTube episode, where I'll show you the room in my home wallpapered entirely in thank-you cards.

If you're craving a return to grace, connection, and everyday elegance, this episode is for you.
