[quote=Anonymous]I watched the Sherri segment…they keep emphasizing that she’s been through so much in a way that makes it seem like Jen has been through more trauma than the average person.

The exact opposite is true? Divorce is traumatic but she’s lived a very sheltered life compared to almost any person I can think of - and her advice in the segment was while not wrong, basic common sense? And again - shes not even to the 3 year mark of her separation and their divorce might only be official for like 2 years? And she’s all tidied up and healed and processed and over everything and thriving of course.

Media and self help world is so weird and lacks awareness. There are millions of people alive today who have lost everything in war and lived through genocides?? There are women with absolutely nothing who had to flee states with their children to get away from an abusive spouse who might kill them?

But Jen is somehow the guru of life and healing and trauma? If she had a less grandiose and down to earth view of herself in the world and actually went through healing instead of cosplaying it - she could be good at giving advice and direction on going through divorce (which is indeed traumatic, I don’t want to make it seem like it isn’t)
