In today’s episode, Lois speaks with Juri Love, a multi-talented woman, about what it is like living with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as a result of childhood trauma. A survivor of sexual abuse, domestic violence and homelessness, Juri’s story is one of resilience and inner strength.
During the conversation, Lois and Juri talk openly about the challenges associated with mental health awareness, and Juri’s bestselling book and podcast, both called A Gift from Adversity.
During the interview Juri discusses certain techniques she uses to manage her panic attacks. Please note that this does not constitute medical advice of any kind. If you are concerned that you may be experiencing panic attacks or symptoms of PTSD, please consult a qualified medical practitioner.

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.
