I always try to make people feel welcome and when they make a mistake to really reassure them that it’s no big deal with a hearty “oh my gosh, no worries at all!” (example: I’m so sorry I’m late or I’m so sorry I forgot X item). I found this type of warmth being from the Midwest. Texans are definitely nice too (at least in Austin lol) but there are some Midwest things worth hanging on to!

I’m from Michigan and I have had people tell me I’m so nice (even when I don’t feel like I am being nice lol) and I know it’s absolutely that Midwest charm.
