Today, I stand before you to talk about a topic that resonates with all of us - fear and uncertainty. These two elements often hinder our growth and prevent us from realizing our true potential. However, I firmly believe that by understanding and addressing our fears, we can learn to embrace uncertainty and lead a life filled with achievements and fulfillment. Fear is a natural response that warns us of potential danger or harm. It is hardwired into our survival mechanism, helping our ancestors navigate treacherous terrains and evade predators. Yet, in today's world, fear manifests in different forms - fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of the unknown. These fears hold us back, restricting our possibilities and preventing us from exploring uncharted paths. But what if I told you that fear, in its essence, is merely an illusion? It is often said that fear stands for "False Evidence Appearing Real." We tend to create scenarios in our minds, imagining the worst possible outcomes, which paralyze our progress. In order to overcome fear, we must challenge these self-imposed limitations. The first step towards conquering fear is to confront it head-on. Acknowledge your fears and their roots. Ask yourself, "What is the worst that could happen?" Often, you will find that the worst-case scenario is not as dreadful as it appears. By confronting your fears, you diminish their power over you. Additionally, seek support from your 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.
