Having navigated the choppy waters of negative thinking in the first couple of episodes and handed you the map to glorifying the past in the third, we now shine a spotlight on the virtues of scorning the present in today's episode.

American author Dan Greenburg had already started brainstorming back in 1966 about ingenious ways to artistically wreck one's life. When it came to the present, he cherry-picked four enviable attributes that, despite their vintage, haven't lost an ounce of their relevance: Wealth, fame, talent, and beauty. If you're blessed with more than one of these prized possessions, consider yourself on the starting block of a perfect misery marathon!

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.
