About the show

Modern Manners is a limited podcast series produced by Ultamize, the world’s largest personal development podcast, audiobook, and online learning network.

Hosted by TJ Walker, this practical personal development podcast explores the modern behaviors that quietly shape your reputation, relationships, career opportunities, and everyday interactions. This is not old-fashioned etiquette. This is not about which fork to use at dinner. This is about modern manners as a behavioral operating system for civilized adult life.

Each episode focuses on the real habits people notice but rarely discuss directly: phone use at dinner, speakerphone in public, Zoom call behavior, meeting etiquette, airplane behavior, RSVP culture, listening skills, interruptions, social awareness, and the small repeated actions that make people either want to be around you or quietly avoid you.

Modern Manners helps you understand how your behavior lands on other people and gives you practical ways to become more present, considerate, professional, and socially intelligent. If you have ever wondered why modern life feels more distracted, rude, noisy, or disconnected, this limited podcast series gives you a clear framework for seeing the problem and fixing your own habits.
