yeah and so i wanted -- >> stephen: so and you and ronan farrow might be frank sinatra's son. look at your own grief? >> absolutely. >> stephen: how you examine it? >> it's made me reframe and rethink the stories i tell myself. we all have these narratives we tell ourselves. in an episode from today, i talk to dr. miller, his sister died by suicide. the release today is about my brother's suicide when he was 23. he killed himself in front of my mom. and it's about the ripple effects of it, and one of the things he talks about is how-- how he views-- he doesn't view sorrow as the enemy. he doesn't view tears as the enemy. he doesn't even view death as the enemy. you can't have one without the other. he talks about how the stories we tell ourselves, we get stuck in these stories. "i'm the kind of guy who does this. i'm the kind of person who feels this." and you can change the stories you tell yourself, and you can change the way-- the way i was seeing my mom and my dad and my brother was through the eyes of a 10-year-old boy when my dad died. to suddenly now see them as a 55-ye
