Drew: I feel like the way that you put that out there was in such community, did it make you feel better and more in community with people or, the opposite? How did you feel?

Brooke: The opposite. Because if you're in the public eye, there's this very fine line between what you share with the world and what you would probably be okay with just sharing with I could call you or, or a friend, another friend. And so I think that there's a whole fine line and then I just had to be honest that it was something that I wanted to share so that there was a community for it, so it didn't become just a self-indulgent, ‘Oh Look at me, I'm crying,’ which was not the point but you, it's a fine line and I think that you'll get to it and I'll be ready for you. I will be so ready for you. But because it's a crazy weird feeling when they're not in the house every day, all day long and you want that you want them to be happy and healthy and strong and on their own. But the way I have dealt with the actual sadness of it is I've become so busy that I almost can't focus on them not being there. I'm a CEO at 59 which is so like…and my way of dealing with it was really just becoming uber busy.
