What if the life you’ve built isn’t actually the life you want?
In this raw and unfiltered conversation, I share my own self-discovery journey and how my 30s cracked me open, from chasing success on autopilot to facing burnout recovery head-on. We talk about the masks we wear to fit in, the roles we never truly chose, and why breaking free from people pleasing was the first step toward living in alignment.
You’ll hear the real story behind my hustle for love, acceptance, and value… and the moment I began asking the questions that changed everything. These 30s life lessons go beyond career or relationships. They’re about healing from burnout, reclaiming your true self, and awakening to the life you actually want.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, worn down, or disconnected from who you really are, this episode will give you the clarity and courage to choose yourself.

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.
