Who would’ve thought that
someone born and raised in the South Bronx
would have the life purpose of being on a quest to bring common sense manners
back? No? Well, how rude of them!
I’ve always dreamt of a
harmonious world where everyone is happy, friendly, courteous and vibrant.
Clearly this isn’t the world we actually live it. It’s a big world with lots of
people and many don’t have manners which can lead to all kinds of everyday societal
problems. These can range from small irritations to full blown violence.
I’m an Intuitive Empath who
has worked with thousands of people as a crisis counselor, college advisor,
business/relationship consultant, spiritual coach, commentator, and writer.
My most passionate project
is the completion of a book and project (one-woman storytelling performance) called “Oh No
You Didn’t- A Quest to Bring Common Sense Manners Back, Part 1 I See Dumb
People and Part 2 Stand Clear of the Loco Trains©”.
Through my work, I share
many stories I have experienced or witnessed that show examples of lack of
manners and rudeness along with its possible consequences. I do it however with
a mix of seriousness and humor to get the various points across.

Consider these everyday instances:
- Someone who sneezes or coughs all over you and a week later you're sick
- A smoker who puffs the smoke right at your direction
- Your on a date and the person picks up their ringing mobile phone, three times!
- You are walking on a busy street and someone bangs really hard into you and just keeps on walking leaving you bruised and stunned.
- You open the door for someone and they just glide right in without saying thank you or acknowledging your presence.
- You are with your romantic partner in a restaurant, you go to the restroom and a woman waits for you to leave to hit on him/her
- You need to use the 1 person restroom but can't go in because someone is in there on a phone call.
This
is for those who are dealing with rude people know
they are not alone in their frustration and have the desire for a better way.
This is also for those who are being rude to know, what they are doing is not welcomed,
acceptable and will no longer be tolerated without some consequence (e.g.
exposure, reprimand, even legal action for what leads to violence).

There are other works and books out there but I find them a bit
dry and the attempts at humor forced because the authors limited connection
with a more diverse audience. They also leave out the very important examples
of what can go very wrong if we don’t heed manners. This misses a huge market
of everyday people. I talk to people from all walks of life who constantly
share their desire for more manners. My book and through my social media and
promotion will reach this wider audience with real life examples, humor, and stories
that happen all the time.
I want others to join my
quest and via common sense manners create harmony and decrease violent
incidents exploring one Oh No Moment
at a time.
