Have you ever avoided asking something to your doctor due to fear or shame? Shieva Ghofrany, today’s guest, believes talking is empowering and the key to stop stigmatizing illness. She is an obstetrician and gynecologist who applies all her experience to empower her patients and Instagram followers. After she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2016, she understood the importance of being optimistic and proactive against diseases.

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.
