The world continues to be in crisis.

Hundreds of thousands of people have contracted COVID-19, not to mention people are dying, millions have lost their jobs, tremendous social inequities are being experienced, racism is running rampant, and so much more.

So many of us are struggling and in pain, and we’re railing against the Universe, trying to uncover a reason for what’s been happening. We keep thinking, “I am a good person. Why is this happening to me?”

I’m experiencing some really tough personal and professional moments myself right now, and one thing that I’m finding to be really helpful during this difficult time is to think of what my friend Jami told me years ago, after I’d gone through a bad breakup: Bad things happen to good people.

This simple statement has stuck with me because it is so true. Bad things happen to every one of us. It’s how we perceive these obstacles and deal with them that matters.

In this video, I share how this simple message has helped me to get through difficult times — including this moment.

As someone who has had her heart broken more than most (I know, I know, hard to believe!), and who has spent a lot of time solo feeling heartbroken, I have a theory about what happens to us when we’re going through heartbreak. I call it the “Bookend Theory of Heartache”.

I came up with this theory after noticing a pattern of what was happening to me as I was dealing with feeling unhappy in a relationship and then again while being single. It hit me that there’s a heartache cycle that I was moving through. The key to surviving the cycle requires us to see the pattern and then address it!

So in this video I share what the key is for dealing with heartbreak and finding your sweet spot of joy along the way.
