A Certain Age

On Pluck and Pandemic America with Oral Storyteller Michelle Fishburne


Listen Later

Meet Michelle Fishburne. After losing her job and home during the pandemic, Michelle packed up an RV to crisscross the US, filming ordinary Americans sharing their pandemic stories for a one-of-a-kind oral history project called Who We Are Now.

At age 57, the former lawyer and non-profit communications pro found herself "on the edge of a cliff" after her life dramatically changed during our COVID spring. Now, this real-life "Nomadland" traveler shares the heroes she met along the way, stories of regular people muddling through, and how to navigate the gulf between uncertainty and resiliency. We also talk "ax throwing," RV maintenance, and how to be a better neighbor.
