On episode 4 of the podcast, I'm talking with award-winning novelist, Dana Spiotta about her new novel Wayward. Wayward is a thought-provoking book that centers the life of Samantha “Sam” Raymond, a white American woman whose menopause journey coincides with her midlife crisis...or maybe menopause causes the crisis. In the story, Sam's life has just begun to come apart: “Trump has been elected, her mother is ill and her teenage daughter is increasingly remote. At fifty-two she finds herself staring into 'the Mids' - those night-time hours of supreme wakefulness where women of a certain age contemplate their lives. In Sam's case, this means motherhood, mortality, and the state of an unravelling nation." On a whim, Sam buys a decrepit old house, abandons her family, and tries to build a new life on her own terms. During my conversation with Dana - which includes no spoilers from the book -  we talk about her motivations for writing a book about menopause, the invisibility of women of a certain age, why we need to normalize conversations about the things that happen to our bodies, and Edith Bunker's menopause moment on All in the Family.  It's an honest and sometimes hilarious conversation that I hope gives listeners some useful food for thought on how we can all reframe menopause and continue the conversation that will liberate us from suffering in silence and alone.  At the end of the show you'll hear how you can win a free copy of Wayward, so be sure to listen all the way to the end of the episode. More Menopause Inspiration and Information Mentioned in the Episode To find out more about Dana Spiotta and her writing, visit her website at DanaSpiotta.com. To purchase a copy of Wayward, visit Amazon or try your favorite indie bookseller. Dana mentioned the book Flash Count Diary: Menopause and the Vindication of Natural Life by Darcy Steinke. It's a powerful memoir about Steinke's menopause journey and the natural world.  To support our wonderful sponsor, check out the delicious snacks and subscription boxes from Yumday.

I'm excited to have Dr. Jason Johnson, a District Economist for Texas A&M Agrilife Extension on the show today to talk about Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Insurance, more commonly referred to as rainfall insurance.  As Dr. Johnson explains, this is an insurance product through the USDA Risk Management Agency that allows a producer to essentially insure average rainfall for his or her area, and receive an indemnity payment if no rainfall occurs.  This episode will provide an overview of the program and walks you through the four decisions that must be made in order to enroll.  We also talk about how to sign up, including the deadline to do so, who you can purchase through, and how the RMA shares in the premium cost.
