The Peregrine Rural Mental Health Podcast
The Peregrine Rural Mental Health Podcast began as an idea from rural mental health practitioners. Too busy to watch webinars or attend workshops, the practitioners did say that they often spent a long time in the car, travelling to their rural workplaces. Therefore, we at The Peregrine Centre have produced a series of episodes, each about an hour long, to help practitioners upskill and expand their mental health practice, all from the comfort of their own headphones. We bring to you experts in their field to teach you about the topics you requested and to answer the questions you asked. Each episode is published on our digital Learning Platform, along with a curated list of resources for those who want to explore further. For free access to our digital learning platform and to suggest topics for future episodes, please visit our website: theperegrinecentre.com.au

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.
