The world feels a little… 🦇💩 crazy right now.

Between the news cycles, social media chaos, and the constant division, it’s easy to feel anxious, angry, or just plain exhausted. If you’ve been wondering how to keep your head and your heart intact amid all this, you’re not alone.

In this episode of Daring DVM, I’m sharing science-backed, soul-deep strategies for staying sane in a world gone mad. Think of it as your sanity survival guide: real talk, practical strategies, and a little bit of sass to remind you that you can show up with courage and kindness even amidst the mess.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • Why acknowledging reality (not ignoring it) is the first step to resilience
  • What it means to be values-driven and kind (without being a pushover or an *sshole)
  • How to respond instead of react (and why that pause is everything)
  • Why action (not motivation) is the antidote to overwhelm
  • How to be a thoughtful media consumer without checking out completely or going insane

💜 We need courage, kindness, grace, resilience and grit now more than ever.💜

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.
