Shiki Nene said, do you assist with etiquette and poise training? Well, I will tell you, with a name like Shiki Nene, that is not etiquette and that is not poise.
But on a more serious level, no.
I don't.
And the reason I don't is because those things are not going to get you into the healthiest, most successful relationship of your life.

And a red dress.
It's much deeper than that.
And I want to offer that to you and anyone else that want that needs to or can hear it at this moment.
Someone said a real man will bring that out naturally. No.
It'S not a man's job to make you feel more feminine.
That's your job.
It's your job.
Your job is to come.
