"Do no harm, take no s***." (Now that’s a motto I can live by!)

And it happens to be the approach our guest takes to running their business. Obsessed. 

Today we welcome award-winning wedding planner, ultimate powerhouse boss-lady, and accidental badass entrepreneur Taryn Blake to the pod!

We’re talking about:

  • How she accidentally fell into the wedding industry and loved the freedom so much that she left her six-figure corporate job to pursue it
  • The obstacles she overcame (personally and professionally) that prepared her to run a successful all-female team with salaried employees and have a healthy work/life balance
  • Her advice for wedding vendors and cake designers on how to break into a new corner of the industry and how to best connect with planners
  • Her thoughts on The Engagement Gap, how to pull yourself out of a creative rut, and the future of the wedding industry

Support Taryn!

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.
