Awareness doesn’t always feel like awakening... it can drag you under before it sets you free.
When awareness pulls like an undertow, it isn’t punishment; it’s responsibility calling you back to what matters. In this episode, Lobro explores how showing up anyway becomes the bridge between intention and integrity. Through honest reflection and off-the-cuff storytelling, he turns a morning of resistance into a meditation on devotion, discipline, and grace.
You’ll hear how awareness makes denial expensive, how presence begins before you feel ready, and how openness keeps the heart engaged when inspiration lags. Because the wave always rewards motion, and every time you show up, even unready, you retrain yourself to be ready.

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.
