Do you ever feel like gratitude sounds nice in theory… but hard to actually feel when you’re overwhelmed? Are you finding it difficult to slow down and appreciate the season you’re in because everything feels loud, busy, or just plain exhausting?
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the truth most moms never say out loud: gratitude doesn’t always come naturally — especially in the seasons where we need it the most. I’m talking about the early baby years, the overstimulated toddler seasons, the long days, the messy days, and even the sweet-but-busy holiday moments where you’re trying to hold everything together. You’ll hear a personal story about my first Thanksgiving as a brand-new mom, and how that season taught me the power of slowing down and intentionally reaching for gratitude, even when it didn’t feel easy.
Ultimately, I’m challenging you to build a simple, tiny gratitude habit you can weave into your daily routine — something realistic, something you can return to even when you’re tired, and something that grounds you in what really matters. Gratitude isn’t just a feeling; it’s a practice. And when you stack it on intentionally, it has the power to shift your whole day.
Let’s partner together because momming is not easy, but it’s way harder when you keep trying to do it alone. I know you’re ready to put those babies to bed… it’s time to pop in your ear pods, shake up your fizz, and let’s get stacking.

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.
