Pain Into Purpose with Jen Newberg
Description
Jen Newberg and her husband Jack were on a dream trip to Greece last year when he suddenly died. Losing Jack was the most devastating moment of Jen’s life – but not her first major life shift. What she’s learned through divorce, blending families, addiction and widowhood is that connection is not just helpful – it’s survival. Because the antidote to loneliness is community. And that’s when Jen is building.
This conversation is beautiful! We go deep on:
-
Dealing with the shock of loss
-
Admitting you need help
-
How not wanting people to feel alone during life’s transitions inspired Jen to turn pain into purpose and launch her company
-
Taking inspiration from a retreat experience in Costa Rica to create a retreat for widows
-
A problem shared is a problem cut in half
