Tangible Takeaways:

  • Recognize what you can control and that you can’t control the actions or health of other people. Especially those suffering from chronic pain or disease. Instead of fixing it, ask what is needed.
  • Establish clear boundaries for yourself to prevent burnout. Prioritize self-care and ensure you're taking care of your physical and emotional well-being.
  • Ask for what you need! Communicate your needs to friends, family, and other support networks to avoid feeling overwhelmed.
  • Take time to reflect on your emotions, frustrations, and losses associated with the situation. Give your negative feelings space to be processed. That alone is therapeutic.
  • Find moments of joy and positivity amidst the challenges. Laughter and positivity can co-exist with pain, and maintaining a hopeful outlook can significantly affect your ability to cope!

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.
