This week we proudly present Australian Olympic and Commonwealth Games marathon runner, Kate Smyth. Discovering her passion for distance running late in her 20s, Kate wasted little time and was soon competing with the world's best on the sport’s biggest stages, culminating in a personal best of 2:28:51 at the 2008 Nagano Olympic Commemorative Marathon. Kate takes us deep into her world and mindset of marathon running – the commitment and sacrifices, the focus and preparation, the family support, the extraordinary challenges of both mind and body to compete against the field, the clock, the conditions and herself.
You can find out more about Kate and her business here at The Athlete Sanctuary.

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.
