Many of us don’t dare to show who we really are. Even if we were to ignore the COVID-pandemic and other global challenges we’re confronted with, modern-day life has become increasingly stressful.
We no longer slow down to listen to our thoughts, to face our emotions, or to ask deep questions such as “What do I really want?” “What is my purpose?” or “What is the meaning of life?” As a result, we feel increasingly ungrounded, powerless and disconnected from ourselves, which further triggers stress and anxiety.

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.
