Between Dr. Google, the internet as a whole, and tracking apps like Life360, we have access to too much info. Full stop. To begin Episode 16, Danielle drops one bit of info that we all should know – she recently took a job as the co-host of a new morning show on WZLX FM radio in Boston. Then she and Cheryl chat about how, overall, it’s exhausting how we have fingertip-access to so…much…information these days. Basically, they ask - is it healthy to be “smart” or is ignorance bliss? They discuss cognitive overload (it’s a thing) and what steps you can take to avoid it, as well as how to back away from all that excess info to decompress, from digital detox to meditation. Dare we say, should we turn a “know it all” into a “no” to it all?
We want to hear from you!
Because it takes a village to raise…well…ourselves, we’re ready to share a laugh, a cry and even an F-bomb with you. Reach out to us on Instagram, Facebook, email, carrier pigeon, smoke signals, whatevs.

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.
