In this episode of The Wisdom Rewind, I sit down with June Sarpong, a trailblazing broadcaster, author, and diversity advocate, to uncover the wisdom behind her inspiring career. From her early days breaking into media at 16 to becoming a powerful voice for equity and inclusion, June’s journey is packed with lessons on perseverance, purpose, and self-mastery.
We dive into her thoughts on building a meaningful career, the importance of mastering one skill before expanding, and why true success requires balancing outward achievement with inner fulfillment. June also opens up about the challenges of navigating a rapidly changing media landscape, her reflections on the power of diversity, and the key lessons she wishes she had learned earlier.
In line with the podcast’s theme, we rewind to explore the advice June would give her younger self if she were starting over today, without resources but armed with the wisdom she’s gained. With candid insights and actionable advice, this episode offers invaluable lessons for anyone looking to craft a career—and a life—with purpose and authenticity.

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.
