In the world of first responders, the most pernicious affliction is that of the slow build-up of trauma over the course of a career. There are many times where those in this profession not only don't get the help they need for it, but in many cases don't even realize they have a growing disease. This trauma can manifest itself in ruined relationships with family and friends, depression, anxiety, and outbursts of anger or sorrow. But there has been great progress made in the fight against this by recognizing the damage years of trauma can cause to a person. Versatem Mindbase has developed a program to help identify when first responders begin to accumulate trauma so that they can get the help they need. Join your host Erica this week as we discuss this exciting new program. Special guests this week are retired Dallas Police Assistant Chief Reuben Ramirez and Mindbase CEO Corey Roberts.

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.
