Unlike many workplaces where hourly employees miss out on meaningful work, mental health support, and training compared with their salaried counterparts, CarMax has found ways to fill these gaps. Diane Cafritz, EVP and chief innovation and people officer at CarMax, explains how.
Diane also opens up about her personal experience as part of the sandwich generation, balancing the demands of raising children and caring for elderly adults, and how that has shaped her perspective on the importance of flexibility in the workplace.

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.
