In episode 9, I talk about grades and the pressure it puts on students. We let grades determine our happiness, our ability, or the future of our success. Trust me I have been there. I believe people and society are so focused on whether someone is smart, that they lose focus on the person and their true qualities as they are in human being. The grades shouldn’t matter. (but you should still try and care a tiny bit : just put the best effort you can) When you die, your transcript won’t be on your headstone, and neither will your job title or your net worth. But the things that will live on are worth so much more than an A or an F. Just because someone gets an “A” in a class or a higher class, doesn’t define their intelligence. If something comes up in the future they can’t accomplish they may not have the perseverance to do it as much as someone who worked so hard to improve their lower grades.

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.
