Guess what? The Canadian federal election is on Monday! I’ve already voted, and I’ll be involved on Election Day… but I’m not sharing in what capacity until the election’s over. In this episode, I talk about how precious (and rare) fully free democratic countries are, why we shouldn’t take democracy for granted, and why voting is important. I’ll also discuss my annoyance with the Trump-centric phenomenon of everyone and their dog bringing up Trump even when the political topic doesn’t even relate to Trump all that much, if at all; of course, on my recent Instagram post about how happy I was to vote in the Canadian federal election, of course some Americans wanted to make my pro-democracy, pro-Canada, pro-freedom, and pro-positivity post about Trump. In this episode I’ll also share about why I’m no longer talking to Americans about Trump, unless they do this ONE thing. Listen to find out what that is, and why, and why you - if you’re also Canadian - may want to implement the same rule in a North American political climate that seems to have forgotten that the world doesn’t revolve around the United States; nor do all political systems echo the American one.

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.
