Visits with farm women from around the world
with freelance farmer and fermenter Liz Resnick.
There was this one fateful day when I was topping leeks with a dull machete
for at least a couple hours, whacking really hard, far harder than one should have to,

(00:27):
um, and just taking all of that impact in my wrist, and I kind of felt this
definitive, like, tweak, and I kept going. It was a combination of, I think, my own

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
