Join Teresa in a thoughtful conversation with Peter Cook, mentor, author, meditator, business blogger and monk, as they unpack her newspaper column about the terrifying effect the 1940's movie musical The Wizard of Oz had on her as a child and how, despite that, she watched it with her 4 year-old daughter.  

Peter and Teresa explore themes of parenting, childhood fears, and the importance of striking a balance between protecting children and allowing them to experience the world.  

Peter shares some approaches that he and his wife employ to encourage their daughters to explore the real world while protecting them from the online world.

Peter shares about how meditation and mindfulness intersect with his work with corporate clients as well as a delightful story from his own childhood, sparked by Teresa's column.

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.
