Welcome to another episode of "Wisdom of the Sages", where we explore principles from history and apply them to our lives today. In this episode, titled "A Simple Man", we delve into the power of simplicity and how it can override intelligence and education. Host Dan Miller takes inspiration from a biblical verse and challenges our assumptions about what it means to be simple-minded. He emphasizes the importance of having a purpose in life and how lacking direction can make us vulnerable to various temptations. Through insightful anecdotes and practical advice, Dan urges us to set clear commitments, choose our attitude, and embrace our unique talents to avoid falling into the category of being simple. So, ask yourself, what are you doing today that proves you are not among the simple?

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.
