Ever feel like the one who notices everything… but no one else seems to care?

In this first episode of Canaries in the Coal Mine, Shannon shares a message every sensitive soul needs to hear—especially if you grew up in a dysfunctional, narcissistic, or emotionally unavailable family.



We’ll explore why deeply feeling people are often labeled as “too sensitive” in toxic systems, how gaslighting and silence create self-doubt, and what it really means to be the canary in the coal mine.



This episode is for the cycle-breakers, the recovering good girls, and the brave souls doing the work to heal from trauma, codependency, and family dysfunction—one truth at a time.



💛 You’re not broken. You’re not crazy. You’re just the canary.

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.
