EPISODE 9: PITY PARTY

Bonus Episode: This episode is from an archive of Brooke’s previous show, “The Naked Mom.” It’s time for some seriously personal girl talk on this week’s Naked Mom Podcast. Brooke welcomes two of her best friends from Malibu – Stephanie Rocca and “Ruth” who both share deeply personal stories about their family lives and other issues women deal with every day. Stephanie’s story centers around every parent’s greatest fear – a life-changing health problem her son experienced as he entered the world. Ruth’s story is an intimate, heart-rending but ultimately triumphant journey of infidelity, divorce and reclaiming her life as a single mother and career woman. They also touch on all the life stuff everyone goes through in one way or another and the three friends do what women around the world do – share their experiences, be supportive and work it all out. Balancing work and kids, being sports parents, dating after divorce, revenge fantasies and a host of other issues are all in the mix. All throughout, there are moments that remind listeners that they are not alone and that re-affirm the importance of women listening to their friends and helping each other to be strong in the face of adversity.
