Episode Summary: The year is flying by, and October was a whirlwind! In this episode, I reflect on a powerful church retreat and dive deep into the significance of surrendering our speech. From the weighty truth in James 3:5 about the tongue’s power to the way our words shape our hearts, we explore how to align our speech with God’s Spirit. Plus, we’re joined by our Surrendered Sister from sunny Florida, who shares her journey of surrendering control, anxiety, and the idols in her life.

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.
