Beth Godshall was in the Peace Corps as an Environmental Volunteer for 1 year in Mongolia. She lived in a ger, or yurt without running water, so she had to walk to the river whenever she wanted to bath or cook. She witnessed the magic of horse whisperers, or people who tame wild horses by whispering in their ears, started a museum in her town, and participated in a snow leopard survey.
Beth and her husband's fourth date was a bicycle tour from Indiana to New Orleans and then over to Austin, Texas in the United States, where they ended up making a living through bicycle delivery and pedicabbing for several months. Beth has been working as a stilt walker since 2005 and puts smiles on plenty of faces with her home-made outfits and tall stature.

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.
