This week, expect to see a few reminiscent tears as Steve interviews Gail Harris, a National Emmy Award-winning PBS and NPR journalist and former correspondent for ABC News Nightline and World News Tonight, about an uncomfortable and often neglected topic that each and every one of us will someday face—the process of dying.


Gail’s Lightwork has found many outlets, including journalism, film, education, and advocacy. Her latest adventure is to become a certified Death Doula and share that dying doesn’t have to be a sad and somber event—that leaving this world can be as uplifting and positive as coming into it. According to the group of nine, those who provide support for the transition into the next life are the highest level of healers. 


Gail joins us to explain the similarities and differences between a Death Doula and a Birth Doula and how she helped to create a center that now trains and certifies Death Doulas to assist those who have come to the end of this life in navigating their path Home and offer support to their loved ones.

Are You A Charlotte?

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.
