  • Matt compares women to the Mississippi River, which has been hemmed in by levees for nearly a century so it can’t overflow its banks, and the wetlands that depended on that overflow are now disappearing. In his view, telling a woman in menopause she’s simply depressed and handing her a prescription is the same move: an effort to control something built to change course.
  • Matt believes you can’t offer unconditional love to someone you disagree with until you can offer it to yourself, and that most of us can’t yet because of old hurts we may not even remember. Before any hard conversation, he asks one question first: “Are you open to hearing a different viewpoint?”
  • While his college friends get their hips replaced and plan their retirement in Florida, Matt is heading the other way. For him, life begins at 50: more money, fewer obligations, the wisdom of your years, and the freedom to go somewhere on a moment’s notice.
