QUOTES
- "I just have a passion for it. And that passion creates the energy to keep going. No matter, even if things are ****, I still love it. It's still fun. It's still awesome. I'm still on a mission to save the world one dad at a time." - Beav Brodie
- "But to be honest, work is the thing that kept me sane. Like when everything else is like just chaos and out of your control. The one constant and the one thing I could kind of control a little bit was the work I was doing." - Beav Brodie

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.
