What if your biggest opportunity is something you can’t see yet?
In this episode, I share a story that changed the course of my life — the moment someone else spotted potential in me that I couldn’t see myself.
Back in college, I loved music but never thought about being on the radio. Until one day, my stepmom said a single sentence that opened a whole new path:
“Why don’t you DJ at the radio station?”
That one question led me to a college radio gig, spinning records in clubs, running a mobile DJ business, and eventually… to becoming an entrepreneur.
đź’¬ In this video, you’ll hear:
• The story of how I became a DJ (and why I almost didn’t)
• How one suggestion changed everything
• The lesson that your next opportunity might already be right in front of you
đź’ Takeaway:
Sometimes we need others to help us see our own strengths.
Ask the people who know you best:
“What do you think I’d be great at that I’m not doing yet?”
You might just discover your next big thing.

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.
