Join me this week as my friend Timothy Valverde and I speak on the challenging decisions we face as parents. Tim's journey began in 2018 when his son, Hunt, was diagnosed with bilateral retinoblastoma. This devastating news turned their lives upside down. Through faith, perseverance, and the support of loved ones, they navigated chemotherapy and difficult decisions, including the recent enucleation of Hunt's eye. The emotional toll of a child's cancer diagnosis is immense, compounded by the fear of relapse. Tim shares how their perspective has evolved, turning anger into a powerful motivation to inspire and educate others. We discuss the importance of counseling and community support for both parents and children, emphasizing the need for a safe space for emotional healing. Through candid conversations, we aim to provide hope and insight to families facing similar challenges, reminding them that they are not alone on this difficult journey.

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.
