John and Jane Doe are experiencing a lack of intimacy in their marriage—it's essentially a sexless union—where they might only connect physically about 6-10 times a year. At first glance, it seems there’s no clear reason for the absence of sex in their relationship. Jane is beginning to think that they may have grown apart or are possibly falling out of love. Meanwhile, John suspects that she might be interested in someone else since she certainly doesn’t seem to be interested in him. However, the reality is that neither of these assumptions, nor any other potential explanations, are accurate. The truth is right in front of them: they have lost their emotional bond. — Perhaps due to unresolved conflicts. — Maybe because they are too preoccupied with other aspects of life. — But the most probable reason they feel more like roommates than a married couple is that they have neglected to nurture their emotional connection, and one of the most obvious signs of this neglect is in their bedroom.

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.
