Summary

Riders of a Certain Age - Fran Severn

The Not Old Better, Art of Living Author Interview Series

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show on radio and podcast.  I'm Paul Vogelzang and today's show is sponsored by Nugenix.  

Are you a woman at midlife or beyond? Have you just discovered you have a passion for horses? Or maybe you've now found time for them after years devoted to a job and family? Surveys show that riders over the age of 40 are the fastest-growing segment of the equestrian world, with those age 65 and above seeing the biggest jump—so you are far from alone!

Our guest today, author Fran Severn, has written the new book, "Riders of a Certain Age. Your Go-To Guide for Loving Horses Mid-Life and Beyond."

Surveys show that riders over the age of 40 are the fastest-growing segment of the equestrian world, with those aged 65 and above seeing the biggest jump.  If you have just discovered a passion for horses, or just found the time to pursue it, RIDERS OF A CERTAIN AGE by Fran Severn is your go-to for how to get started. 

Let's listen as Fran Severn graciously reads from her new book, 'Riders of a Certain Age."

That of course is our guest today, author, rider, and horse expert Fran Severn reading a passage from her new book, '"Riders of a Certain Age. Your Go-To Guide for Loving Horses Mid-Life and Beyond."

Please join me for a spirited, good-humored, and lovely interview with Fran Severn.

My thanks to author Fran Severn, who's written the wonderful new book, "Riders of a Certain Age. Your Go-To Guide for Loving Horses Mid-Life and Beyond."  For more about Fran Severn, please check out our show notes today.  My thanks to sponsor Nugenix.  Please support our sponsors and try Nugenix, or suggest it to your partner by referring to today's show notes for details.  My thanks to you, my wonderful Not Old Better Show audience on radio and podcast.  Please be well, be safe, and let's eliminate assault rifles, keeping our grandchildren and children safe everywhere, but especially in school.  Thanks, everybody and we'll see one another next week.
