If you’ve ever been curious about how our partnership with St. Jude first began, we have a story for you! Meet sisters Cora Beth and Meade and hear firsthand how these trailblazing women—along with their Beta Mu Chapter sisters—turned one bold idea into a domino effect. They’ll take you back to the 1990s to share how they organized their very first fundraising initiatives without the help of social media or modern-day technology to spread the word. They’ll share their concept of “the power of one” and how college students opened the doors to gender equality showing how sorority women can make a change at a business level.
You’ll also learn about their ongoing cancer advocacy work through the Flamingo Day Foundation—launched right here on our podcast and inspired by their late mother’s battle with inflammatory breast cancer. Plus, get a preview of Meade's soon-to-be-released documentary “Inflammingo.” Learn more at Inflammingo.com.
We hope this episode serves as a reminder that powerful changes begin with a single step, and we’re all thankful for the steps Cora Beth and Meade have taken to support each other, lift up our sisters, and impact cancer treatment and research throughout their lives.

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.
