Meet Joe Tosini—pastor, leader and bridge-builder. Joe is the Founder and Visionary of the J17 Movement, a global call to relational unity inspired by the heart of Jesus' prayer in John 17, “that they may all be one.”He is also one of the most networked and relational people you’ll meet.
Joe and I dive into a story few can tell — his rare and remarkable friendship with Pope Francis. Through nearly fifteen personal encounters, Joe experienced firsthand the humility, humor, and humanity of a man often seen only from a distance.
We talk about what it’s like to sit across from Pope Francis — not as Protestants and Roman Catholics — but as brothers and sisters in Christ, sharing conversations rooted in Jesus, unity, and compassion.
Joe shares powerful, personal moments that reveal the heart of a leader who believed deeply that we cannot flourish without the voices of the marginalized and those who the world overlooks.
It’s a conversation about friendship, transformation, and the kind of unity the world is aching for right now.
It’s personal. It’s inspiring. It’s hope-filled.

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.
