#418: Esther Perel — Tactics for Relationships in Quarantine

Esther Perel — Tactics for Relationships in Quarantine | Brought to you by Magic Spoon and ShipStation.

“Maybe you don’t feel that enough people love you, but I can tell you, there’s a world of people out there who need you at this moment.” — Esther Perel

Psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author Esther Perel (@EstherPerelOfficial) is recognized as one of today's most insightful and original voices on modern relationships. Fluent in nine languages, she helms a therapy practice in New York City and serves as an organizational consultant for Fortune 500 companies around the world. Esther is an acclaimed TED speaker and the host of the hit podcasts Where Should We Begin? and How's Work?.

Esther recently launched Couples Under Lockdown, a bonus mini-series on her podcast Where Should We Begin?, and the first episode aired last week and features a couple in Sicily several weeks into their quarantine. Esther will also host an international conversation about the new normal, what it means for our relationships, and how we can move forward in a time of social distancing, uncertainty, and grief. It will be broadcast live on Facebook and YouTube. The four-part series, entitled The Art of Us: Love, Loss, and Loneliness Under Lockdown, will be broadcast live at 3 p.m. ET on April 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd.
