Official Bio
At The School of Manners, I've embarked on a heartfelt journey to counteract the erosion of genuine human connection in our rapidly evolving world. It all began with a profound realization: the nurturing qualities of empathy, communication, and relationship-building, traditionally instilled by women, are not relics of the past but indispensable tools for fostering a more compassionate society. Despite encountering frequent admonishments that I was "too nice" to thrive in the world, I remained steadfast in my belief that kindness and authenticity are not weaknesses but strengths that can transform lives.
Originally named 'Her Manners', my endeavor paid homage to the countless women who have silently preserved these invaluable life skills. However, recognizing the universal need for such skills across genders and cultures, I rechristened it 'The School of Manners'. This rebranding signified a shift in focus—from merely preserving traditional etiquette to redefining it in a contemporary context, ensuring its accessibility and relevance to all.
My approach at The School of Manners is distinct. I perceive etiquette not as a rigid set of rules but as a dynamic form of communication—an avenue for individuals to express their authenticity through gestures, attire, words, and even silence. I firmly believe that these expressions, when cultivated mindfully and genuinely, possess the transformative power to alleviate the pervasive loneliness of our modern era and foster profound human connections.
My clientele spans a diverse spectrum, mirroring the breadth of teachings offered. From individuals embarking on personal growth journeys to corporate teams seeking to enrich their professional dynamics, from members of royal families and CEOs to young students at the onset of their life journey, The School of Manners caters to a broad audience. Far beyond conventional etiquette training, my holistic approach integrates elements of self-awareness, personality assessments, image consultancy, and mindfulness, guiding my students towards authentic self-expression and interpersonal harmony.
Enriched by my role as a mother, my mission is both simple and profound: ".Building a world where our children can aspire to authentic human connections, where nobody feels left out and misunderstood. Where etiquette is no longer seen as a dusted concept. " This ethos, deeply influenced by the nurturing and empathetic perspective that motherhood brings, underpins every facet of my work—it's about teaching individuals not only to be better to others but also to embrace their true selves.
As I cast my gaze towards the future, I envision The School of Manners as a beacon of guidance for those seeking to reclaim their innate ability to engage authentically with others. My aspiration is to cultivate a world where kindness, empathy, and understanding are not merely lofty ideals but integral aspects of everyday life. At The School of Manners, I'm not merely imparting skills for today; I'm nurturing a legacy of compassion and understanding for generations to come.
