Summary:
Gene and Rawle discuss the concept of certainty and its role in our lives. They explore the different definitions of certainty and how it relates to belief, conviction, and expectations. They also reflect on their recent experience of having a quarrel and how it led to a deeper understanding and growth in their friendship. The conversation highlights the importance of embracing uncertainty and being open to learning and new perspectives.


Key Takeaways:

  • Certainty is based on truth and established beyond doubt.
  • Expectations often accompany certainty, but it's important to let go of control and accept what comes.
  • Certainty can switch and change on a dime, and it's important to be adaptable.
  • Quarrels and disagreements can lead to growth and deeper understanding if approached with respect and a willingness to listen.

Quotes:

  • "Certainty is something that is universally true when conditions are consistent." - Rawle James
  • "Certainty is accepting the fact that you might be offended and not getting what you think you want." - Rawle James
  • "Certainty is a bandwagon jumper, willing to switch allegiance to what is certain at any given moment." - Gene Bernier

Are You A Charlotte?

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.
