The way we speak to others and to ourselves shapes how we connect, resolve conflict, and build trust in our relationships. Reactivity, blame, and defensiveness can keep us stuck in cycles of misunderstanding and disconnection. By learning to communicate with clarity and compassion, we create space for collaboration, empathy, and authentic connection. It is essential that we become more aware of how we express our feelings and needs, so we can move from judgment and criticism to conversations that build bridges instead of walls.
In this episode you’ll hear about:
- What Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is and why it matters
- The four key steps of NVC: Observation, Feelings, Needs, and Requests
- How to avoid blame and defensiveness in difficult conversations
- How to find the right words by using tools like the Feelings Wheel and lists of universal needs
- Practical tips for practicing NVC and listening with empathy

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.
