In this episode, Jess sits down with Morra Aarons-Mele, a renowned internet marketer and author of Hiding in the Bathroom: A Roadmap to Getting Out There (When You'd Rather Stay Home). Morra has been very open and vocal about her anxiety and depression and how she handles the highs and lows of navigating a mental illness inside of a work culture that values "hustle porn" and success at all costs (or at least the appearance of success!).
In this convo, Jess and Morra talk about creating a Good Life that includes developing a relationship with your anxiety, boldly and vulnerably sharing your truth so that others are unburdened to share their own, and normalizing the everyday presence of mental illness even and especially with high functioning successful people.

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.
