When Dave and Jen first packed up their three kids and moved to Spain, they thought they knew what lessons were coming. But after four months abroad, they're here to share the surprising truths they never saw coming.

Their biggest revelation? Sometimes less really is more - from shorter workouts and baby beers, to tiny fridges that force fresher food choices. Through their daughter Quinn's academic transformation, they discovered how a new environment can reveal your truest nature while catalyzing unexpected growth. Perhaps most surprising was learning to embrace the "buy-in phase" of change (spoiler: those visas are still pending!) and how their weekly podcast recordings have become an unexpected anchor for processing their entire experience. Their number one takeaway? The Spanish philosophy of "poco a poco" (little by little) that's completely transformed their approach to family life.

And because no overseas story is complete without a few plot twists, they wrap up with their biggest culture shock moments - from mysteriously omnipresent artificial sweeteners to random 3 AM fireworks that have their dog Mango questioning all of life's decisions. A must-listen for anyone dreaming of shaking up their family's status quo or just curious about what happens when you dare to do something different.

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.
