Workplace relationships used to be one of the most common ways to meet a partner, but in today’s world, navigating romance at the office has become a minefield of HR policies, legal concerns, and potential career risks. In this episode, we dive into the reality of dating at work—how it's changed, why it’s so complicated now, and whether it's even worth the risk. We’re not lawyers, we’re not HR reps, we’re just two people talking about the very real struggles of finding love in a place where it’s increasingly off-limits. Using a recent USA Today article as a reference, we explore the unspoken rules, the awkward company policies, and whether workplace romance is truly disappearing or just going underground.
But let’s be honest—people are still hooking up at work. So how do you navigate it without getting yourself into trouble? We talk about the do’s and don’ts of workplace relationships, the importance of transparency, and how to handle things if it all goes south. Is keeping it a secret ever a good idea? What happens if you break up and still have to see each other every day? And are office relationships really dead, or just evolving? Join us as we unpack the messy, complicated, and sometimes hilarious world of office romance in the modern age.

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.
