It’s hard to believe that we are halfway through our first season of Plain View — the podcast is taking a brief two-week intermission to research and chat with this community about our next five episodes!
Do you have any advice for us? Topic recommendations? Questions? Personal anecdotes to share? You can respond directly to this email, send us a DM @plai.nview or email us at plainviewworld@gmail.com.
We are also collecting voicemails through our Plain View hotline (side note: we’ve cried every time we’ve received a voice message 🥹). One of our upcoming episodes is on the topic of aging, and in order to make the episode extra meaningful and varied… we need you to contribute! All stories will be shared anonymously. It doesn’t matter your age, gender, life stage — we’d love to hear from you. We know it can be scary to make a phone call, but all calls go straight to the voicemail box, easy peasy, and listening to your voices in real time makes us feel so connected.
has been exploring some feelings around growing older on her personal Substack (), and together, we’ve compiled some questions for you below. If anything resonates or brings to mind something personal, we’d love to invite you to share by calling (925) 247-VIEW. Don’t forget to include your age, too — or even ask your kids, your spouse, your parent!When did it feel like your life really began? Or are you still waiting for this feeling?
What do you want younger people to know about the age you are now?
What are you nostalgic for, or what is one of your favorite memories?
What has surprised you the most about growing older?
What is something you’re looking forward to — big or small?
Thanks for joining us every Monday. We’ve been so blown away by the responses and kind comments, and look forward to continuing to show up here with you.
Talk soon,
Elise & Kristine
