On Gratitude in the Midst of Heartbreak, Platonic Love & Reclaiming a Sense of Self with Jenny Tung

On Gratitude in the Midst of Heartbreak, Platonic Love & Reclaiming a Sense of Self with Jenny Tung

This is a conversation with my Kiwi (New Zealander) friend, Jenny. I met Jenny in 2014 while she was on a three-year solo trip around the world. We found ourselves as roommates for a week volunteering in an English language immersion program in Poland, where we formed a deep connection which has carried our long-distance friendship all of these years. Jenny shares her heart with us as she recounts the end of a five year relationship. She talks about therapy, how her friends came to her rescue, feeling gratitude while heartbroken, and being in the thick of a spiritual journey. There are so many raw and vulnerable moments in this episode as Jenny so generously brings us into her experience of losing herself in a relationship, grieving it's end and then reclaiming her independence and zest for life. Heartbreak can feel like the world is closing in on us, it is a universal experience. This episode is for all of us because we all have a heart, and it is a rite of passage for it to break many times over. May you see yourself in Jenny and may her courage to choose to fall in love with herself and begin again serve as the sign you needed to do the same.
