What happens when the mirror doesn’t reflect you and the algorithm doesn’t recognize you?In this episode, Dr. Stacey Denise explores how artificial intelligence, beauty standards, and racial bias intersect to shape not just our digital presence, but our nervous systems. Through a rich blend of personal narrative, neuroaesthetic insight, and an illuminating dialogue with Dr. Monique Akassi, we unpack the emotional toll of being digitally erased and how to reclaim visibility through what Dr. Stacey calls sensory sovereignty.You’ll hear how technocolonialism hides in plain sight, why AI-generated beauty often fails Black and neurodivergent women, and how tools like the Color Reset™ Method offer more than aesthetic correction, they offer emotional medicine.With excerpts from Dr. Akassi’s groundbreaking work and an invitation to imagine “healing tech,” this episode challenges listeners to ask not just what AI sees but who’s behind the screen.🎧 Tune in now to rediscover your image, restore your sensory safety, and rethink the digital future — on your terms.

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.
