In this episode I sit down with Todd Bertsch, a motivational speaker, entrepreneur, and positive intelligence coach, to dive into the transformative power of mindset shifts. We explore how positive intelligence can rewire your brain, helping you move from fear-based “saboteur” thinking to a more empowering “sage” perspective. Todd shares practical strategies for cultivating a growth mindset, building mental resilience, and finding opportunity in every situation. If you’ve ever felt stuck in negative thought patterns or reactive behaviors, this conversation is packed with actionable insights to help you break free and embrace a more positive, fulfilled life.
Meet my guest: Todd Bertsch is a dynamic entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and life-optimization coach who has dedicated his career to helping individuals harness the power of positive intelligence. With a background in digital marketing and leadership, Todd has transformed not only his own life but also the lives of countless others through mindset coaching. After overcoming personal struggles with anger and emotional reactivity, Todd discovered the power of mental fitness and daily mindset practices. Now, he’s on a mission to help others shift their perspectives, find joy in the everyday, and create lasting, positive change.

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.
