How do people truly learn and become receptive to advice?
In this episode, the group delves into the ways people learn through pain—either directly or by remembering past pain. They discuss the common struggle of giving advice and the frustration when the advice is ignored. The conversation explores why people may appear ready for advice but resist implementing it due to attachments, pride, or fear. They emphasize the importance of patience, compassion, and proper timing when offering help. The discussion also touches on the recurring theme of seeing past superficial complaints to identify the core issues and the necessity of allowing people to experience their learning journey. They illustrate these points with personal anecdotes, shedding light on their approach to supporting friends and family through their struggles.

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.
