In today’s episode, I sit down with the radiant Monica Connolly—Certified Holistic Life & Mindset Coach, speaker, and host of the Unshakeable Belief podcast. Monica shares her incredible story of resilience, healing, and rebirth after hitting rock bottom while caring for her medically fragile family and navigating her own chronic illness.
After losing 150 pounds and rebuilding her life from the inside out, Monica discovered her mission: to help faith-driven women in transition rise into the life they were created for. We unpack her powerful THRIVE Blueprint and talk about what it truly takes to reset your body, rewire your mindset, and reclaim your purpose.
This conversation is for any woman who feels stuck, stretched thin, or unsure how to move forward—Monica’s story will meet you right where you are and remind you that you were made for more.

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.
