In today’s episode, I sit down with 2025 Olympia-qualified IFBB Pro Kerry Sexton—an online fitness and posing coach from the UK, co-host of Beyond the Stage, and an athlete with over 40 competitions under her belt since earning her Pro card in 2019!
We dive deep into posing during the improvement season, the mindset needed to stay in love with the sport, navigating PMDD, and how bodybuilding can truly transform your life. Kerry opens up about the highs and lows of competing, the importance of following your plan post-show, and why no single show should ever define you.

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.
