As we round out June 2025, we did not want to leave it without reflecting on what Pride month means to us and to the LGBTQIA+ community. Join host CH as she reflects on what Pride has ultimately come to mean to her, and some of the key lessons it has taught her - namely, the importance of standing up for kindness, acceptance, and understanding in a world often divided by differences. It seems Pride represents even MORE to us this year than in recent years past. And, it serves as an important reminder about embracing diversity, learning from different life experiences, and the enduring importance of being an ally to each other.

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.
