In this episode, Jess sits down with her friend, kickboxer, stuntwoman, celebrity trainer, and former WWE Pro Wrestler Kendra Smith. While Kendra's background and expertise lean heavily on physical abilities, her spiritual transformations throughout her life and career leave no doubt that a quest for The Good Life always starts from the heart.
They discuss how Kendra witnessed heartbreaking deaths as a child and how that impacted the way she looks at life now as an adult. Jess and Kendra share a beautiful conversation about how each chapter of our lives -- no matter how messy or complicated -- is just another stepping stone towards joy and embracing the unknown.

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.
