WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE BRIONY STEWART
“You know what I am just gonna try and do the thing I most want to do first, and if it doesn’t work and if I turn out to be really crappy at it, life is long and I’m sure I can pivot and find some other job I can do”
On today’s show we are talking to multi-award winning author and illustrator Briony Stewart.
With over 25 children's books to her name and a trophy shelf full of industry awards, Briony is a true powerhouse in the world of children's literature :)

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.
