00:00Having a daughter, I can understand maybe a gap.
00:03I had never seen a book addressed.
00:05Working parents and separation anxiety and making the message clear that no matter where you are,
00:10if you're separate from each other, love keeps you together.
00:13And that presence doesn't always have to be physical.
00:16It also translates into if anyone's ever lost a loved one,
00:19that presence isn't necessarily me seeing you, it's I can feel you no matter where we are.
00:24It sounds like you struggle sometimes with mom guilt as every mother does.
00:28How do you deal with that?
00:30I've tried to make the time that I do spend with her quality,
00:33making sure that I'm fully present, the phone is down.
00:37So work has to kind of take the back burner once I get home.
00:41So she voiced the audio book?
00:43Yeah, she's on it with me.
00:45So what I did was I recorded it.
00:47And then when she came in the booth with me, I had to repeat what I say.
00:51So she was doing it with all the same inflections and like super excited to hear herself and record.
00:55So I think that's going to be a special moment for us always to have.
00:59Okay, Victoria, is there anything?
01:01I think that's going to be a special moment for us always to have.
