Sis Unleashed

Sis Unleashed

Welcome to Sis Unleashed—the unapologetic sanctuary, sacred rebellion, and soul-deep homecoming for Black women in the LGBTQ community who are done shrinking. This isn’t just a podcast—it’s a reclamation. A space where taboo gets tossed, trauma gets named, and truth takes its rightful place at the center. Where sexual health, identity, healing, pleasure, purpose, and personal power are no longer whispered about, but spoken boldly in the light. Here, we rip down the walls—internal and external—that have silenced our stories, shamed our joy, and suppressed our magic. We confront stigma at the root—whether inherited from systems or swallowed from survival—and replace it with tenderness, truth, and transformation. Each episode is a real, raw, and radiant invitation to show up exactly as you are—whether you’re crawling toward clarity, reclaiming your voice, or ready to empower others in their rise. We talk the hard talk, hold space for healing, and serve strategies that spark liberation—from the bedroom to the boardroom, and everywhere our brilliance belongs. This is a sacred, affirming, and activating space where Black queer women can breathe, bloom, and blaze new paths authentically, disruptively and unapologetically. Because Sis Unleashed is not where you come to play small—it’s where you come to remember you were born to take up space. We don’t just survive here—we thrive, disrupt, and unleash every sacred part of who we are.

    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.
