In this week’s episode, host and founder Lucretia Ackfield reflects on the conversations and situations that motivated her to create the Medusa’s Mic podcast. Like many of us, Lucretia was fed up with the high levels of sexual violence in our communities. This frustration inspired her to take action at a grassroots level by seeking to change the attitudes and behaviours that enable and perpetuate sexual violence. Lucretia is a feminist and passionate advocate for women and encourages them to feel empowered to take back their voices and create positive change. The goal of Medusa’s Mic is to provide valuable tools and information to people affected by domestic, sexual and family violence across the globe.

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.
