Etiquette is less about knowing every rule and more about making others feel at ease. 👏🏻 🍽️

The most graceful person in the room isn’t the one who knows which fork to use.. It’s the one who makes everyone feel seen, welcomed, and comfortable. ☺️

Modern manners matter—especially when it comes to our phones. 📱 Whether you’re at dinner, in a meeting, or chatting with a friend, being present is the ultimate power move. ✨

A few timeless tips:
– Don’t place your phone on the table.
– Keep notifications silenced during conversation.
– Excuse yourself if you must take a call.
– No scrolling mid-convo—it can wait.

Grace is in the little things. ✨

Crack, dip, savor — but with grace! 🦞✨ Whether you’re at a seaside shack or a formal dinner, knowing how to properly enjoy lobster is a must. Here are a few lobster etiquette tips to keep it classy while getting a little messy:

🦞 Lobster Etiquette 101:
• Wear the bib—own it! It’s perfectly acceptable at most lobster feasts.
• Use the tools. The cracker and pick help you get the meat out without making a scene.
• Break it down step by step. Tail first, claws next, then the legs.
• Dip, don’t drench. A graceful dip into butter goes a long way.
• Napkins are your best friend. Keep one in your lap and one for your hands.

Because etiquette doesn’t mean boring, it means enjoying every bite with style. ✨🦞

Sharing a space during competition weekend? Here are 3 simple ways to be the best roommate ever:

Keep it Tidy ~
Your makeup may be chaotic, but your space shouldn’t be. Keep your belongings neat and don’t let your glam take over the whole room.

Be Considerate ~
Early call time? Late-night rehearsals? Respect each other’s rest and routines—quiet hours are golden.

Energy Matters ~
Be a light, not a stressor. A kind word or calming vibe can make all the difference before the big moment.

Grace starts behind the scenes!
