A minisode where I reflect on and continue to process the unforgettable, transformative, powerful, and dare I say better than Renaissance, what is known as The Cowboy Carter Tour. Decked out in my patch work denim hat and Cowgirl Major Bey sash I got to witness Beyoncé’s legendary dedication, creativity, and showmanship live at the Cowboy Carter Rodeo Chitlin Circuit. I unpack how Beyoncé’s presence inspires fans to level up, embrace their own excellence, and show up as the “best version” of themselves—reminding us all we are “one of one.”

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.
