Remember in the corporate 90’s when we used to hang ‘Success’ posters up about working hard, and it was taught by HR training courses to ‘leave your personal life at home’? This chat with author and coach Emily Golden reminded me of that. She too was raised in that high performing corporate culture… but life and various traumas guided her on her true path.
Emily Golden is businesswoman, parent, lifelong learner and in our conversation today she shares a few insights into her years of experience. We chat about being vulnerable, how putting your first book out feels like standing naked in the street, the difference between post-traumatic-stress and post-traumatic-growth and of course, wake up calls.

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.
