Thanks For Asking

Nora started this show because she wants to talk to YOU, the listener, about what matters to you. So today, she talks to listeners about it all : getting a hysterectomy, a battle with cancer and health insurance companies (and how much we all hate health insurance companies!), and feeling invisible in a marriage.  Listen to the ad-free version on https://substack.com/inbox/post/171308128https://substack.com/inbox/post/171308128!

Kathy Barker isn’t just the founder of Barker Farm – she’s a mother, an advocate for mental health awareness and breaking the stigma of food insecurity, and a self-proclaimed “worker bee.” She’s committed to helping others, not just because it’s the right thing to do, but also because she once needed that help. Today, she shares with Nora the story of surviving domestic violence, financial instability, and the building of Barker Farm.

Influencers are the people (women!) that people (women!) love to hate. But they also have a huge cultural and economic impact. It’s tangly, and Author and Podcaster Jo Piazza has been reporting on influencer culture for over 5 years. Her new book, Everyone is Lying To You, is a thriller set in the world of trad-wife influencers, and I loved it so much I had to sit down and talk to her about what we love (and loathe) about this industry.  Jo’s book, Everyone Is Lying To You is out July 15, 2025 and worth a pre-order!
