Why Is Everyone So Rude Lately? A Mother-Daughter Breakdown

  What happened to common courtesy? 

In this episode of Her Unshakeable Confidence, Simone and Olivia Knego riff on the manners meltdown they keep running into everywhere, from elevator etiquette and messy hotel bathrooms to parking lot chaos and airplane frustrations. They talk about fake service dogs, headphone-free video calls, road rage, and why karma always seems to catch up. 

The takeaway: confidence shows up in how you treat other people, and a little kindness goes a long way.
