In this episode, we dive into the inspiring musical journey of Adela, a talented young cellist and high school senior. Adela shares her experience with MYSO and how it has shaped her life and future aspirations.

From her serendipitous introduction to the cello in second grade to her current plans of pursuing a degree in cello performance, Adela's story is a testament to the transformative power of music education and community support.

She offers insights into the challenges and rewards of dedicating oneself to an instrument and the invaluable experiences gained through MYSO including:

  • Adela's unexpected start with the cello, choosing it without knowing what it was, and how this spontaneous decision led to a deep passion for the instrument.
  • The impact of MYSO on Adela's personal growth, providing her with leadership opportunities and a supportive community of fellow music enthusiasts.
  • Adela's journey from a curious beginner to an accomplished young musician preparing for conservatory auditions, illustrating the long-term effects of early music education.

Adela's story serves as an inspiration for young musicians and a powerful example of how MYSO nurtures talent and shapes futures.

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.
