On this Episode of Raising & Rising, we chat with Michelle Ward, Michelle is a neurocrimonologist, host of the podcast How Not To Raise A Serial Killer, and mother of two kiddos, Charlotte and Soren. Today we focus on her 10-year-old daughter Charlotte, a highly sensitive and intelligent young tween. When feeling anxious or hurt, Charlotte makes her feelings known by arguing with Michelle. Michelle feels like she has tried everything to deescalate these situations, but still struggles with Charlottes outbursts. Today, we discuss the art of deescalation, the dignity trip wire, and how to let your kids torture you an appropriate amount without actually creating little serial killers.

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.
