Select Joint Appearances
Brooke + Trevor Andersen
For select conversations where a spouse, caregiver, marriage, or family perspective is relevant, Brooke may be joined by her husband, Trevor Andersen.
Together, Brooke and Trevor can speak about navigating severe mental illness, family crisis, caregiving, marriage, parenting, survival, and rebuilding from two different perspectives inside the same family. Brooke and Trevor also appeared together on The Oprah Podcast for a national conversation about postpartum psychosis and its impact on families.
Trevor is part of select appearances only, not every Brooke engagement.
Reduced & Pro-Bono Consideration
Mission-Aligned Opportunities
Not every meaningful conversation fits neatly into a standard speaking budget.
Brooke considers reduced honoraria and select pro-bono opportunities for organizations and events closely aligned with her story and advocacy, including maternal mental health, postpartum support, women's health, mental health advocacy, education, healthcare, and nonprofit organizations.
If Brooke's story feels especially aligned with your audience or mission, please reach out even if the standard speaking rate is outside your organization's budget. Each opportunity is considered individually.
Interviews & Editorial
Podcasts & Media
Traditional editorial interviews, news media conversations, and aligned podcast guest appearances are generally considered separately from paid speaking engagements.
Brooke welcomes thoughtful opportunities to discuss motherhood, postpartum psychosis, maternal mental health, chronic illness, family, faith, identity, survival, and hope.
Commercial productions, sponsored content, private webinars, branded events, paid membership programming, corporate media, and other commercial uses may require a separate appearance or licensing fee.
Practical Details
Travel & Accommodations
For engagements requiring travel, the speaking fee is separate from travel expenses unless otherwise agreed in writing. Travel expenses may include:
- Round-trip airfare
- Hotel accommodations
- Ground transportation
- Reasonable meals and incidentals
For Brooke + Trevor appearances, travel arrangements should account for two travelers. Brooke's team is flexible and professional about arrangements.
Pricing Flexibility
Every engagement is a little different.
Final pricing may vary based on:
- Event location
- Travel requirements

- Multiple appearances during the same event
- Workshops or additional sessions
- Brooke-only vs. Brooke + Trevor
- Recording rights

This is simply to preserve flexibility — not to make booking complicated.
