Do You Want To Be More Comfortable and Confident
In Social Settings? A Master Networker?
And a Conversationalist?
Does it seem like you’ve tried everything in your power to control your social anxiety, and yet, despite your best intentions, you’re still plagued by:
- Dreading the next business social event?
- Wasting valuable “networking” opportunities?
- Making poor first impressions?
- Struggling to “make small talk”?
Don’t Continue to Let Social Anxiety Sabotage Your Success
Make no mistake: Your social anxiety may not be your fault, but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t — or can’t — do anything to STOP it!
The costs of continuing to repeat this pattern are just too steep…
We are all walking biographies — what story are you communicating to others through your unspoken soft social skills?
From the boardroom, to the business lunch to the backyard barbeque—your business is always open.
Think about all of the relationships that you haven’t made because you’re afraid to network with someone that you know would be a good customer, business associate, mentor, or even a potential friend.
Think about how much harder you have to work because your first impression is often a weak one and you struggle with “small talk”.
… and that’s not to mention the toll it’s taking on your personal life.
For more than twenty years, I have helped people feel more confident and at ease in their everyday lives by teaching them about etiquette, protocol, and soft social skills. Whether I’m doing one-on-one coaching or group classes, writing blogs, visiting the White House, or appearing in my nationally syndicated “Manners Minute” television segments, I always focus on the same core principles: kindness as opposed to formality, and relationships as opposed to rules.
I’ve worked with thousands of people with suffering needlessly with exact same problem, and been able to help most of them put an end to their social anxiety for good! Now they are living fuller, richer, more successful lives.
The Secret to Social Self-Confidence
You see, the secret to social self-confidence is to know and understand the rules of social engagement before you’re in the middle of an uncomfortable situation. In a simple sense, when you know which fork use — you are liberated. It works the same way with small talk, introductions, eye contact, and “The Perfect Hand Shake”.

“Patricia Rossi’s new book, Everyday Etiquette, is the most user-friendly book on etiquette I’ve ever read. It effortlessly combines some of the most common traditional etiquette guidelines and those that are relevant to our technologically-oriented society of today. It even includes etiquette suggestions for cell phones, texting and social media. Many etiquette books I have read in the past have left me feeling uncomfortable and worried that I would make a mistake if I didn’t know and implement every rule perfectly.
One of the things that makes Patricia’s book so amazing, is that it is all framed around basic kindness and relationships, rather than absolute rules for everything. Add to that a touch of Patricia’s wonderful sense of humor, and it’s a really fun and informative book to read. I now feel like I don’t have to be a Stepford Wife to fit into society!”
