[Trauma Alert: Short mention of childhood sexual abuse and incest]
In honor of the November new moon, please enjoy this episode and use the new moon to set an intention.
I hope you will celebrate Native American Heritage and peoples during November. One great way is to spend time on Thanksgiving listening to Native voices and extending reciprocity to Native peoples and earth mama.
In this joyful conversation Jennifer and I discuss:
Celebrating the passing of Indigenous People's Day in Baltimore and Philly
How she makes land and peoples acknowledgements personal
Reconnecting and staying in the body allows for synchronicities to find you
How giving a keynote as an ambassador of Turtle Island in South Africa with artists committed to social transformation stretched her
Jennifer’s secret to accomplishing a big thing is:
Aligning your emotions with your intentions; holding your intention with lightness; and keep swimming–taking action.
Jennifer tells the Turtle Island origin story, a version of which is held by many Native groups in North America as an example of someone small fulfilling on a huge task.
Finally, Jennifer shares how you can have generational trauma and still be light and joyful. We are all perfect.

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.
