We are so excited to share the gems from our chat with serial entrepreneur, Vanessa Newman aka DJ Fiveboi and gender-neutral evening wear designer, Kris Harrington of Kris Harring Apparel Group! As Lamika so accurately put it, we talked about "decolonizing success" so grab a notepad and take away some tangible tips to do just that! Kris and Vanessa talked to us about their introductions to business and self-employment, the importance of trusting a vision and finding time to get it all done. We also get into that familiar debate about whether or not working with friends is a good move. We talk about it all and you definitely want to hear it!

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.
