[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jen is trying to rediscover her dress sense and acting out like a teenager in many other ways. This is normal although not *the* norm after a major divorce.

Why is the lashing out being made public? Obviously getting divorced was traumatic for Jen and jammed some gears in her brain. Her significant and public regression could represent prolonged PTSD symptoms.

Maybe she’s just too impulsive and undisciplined (right now or always) to take her business to the next level.

Jen may not even care much about being an influencer anymore or maybe holds resentment towards the role due to the negatives that this career has brought to her life. She still craves attention but she might be feeling entitled, like she should be able to do whatever she wants and still somehow become a super power couple, gazillionaire goddess of the land.

The most compassionate take I can think of is that she’s self-loathing due to being cheated on. She’s self-destructing because despite what she preaches, she still struggles to value herself right now.

Love and peace Jen ❤️

Agreed. Betrayal trauma absolutely causes PTSD. I think this all points to the ridiculousness of the influencer culture and selling yourself, your thoughts and your family as a brand. When life changes and gets hard, you’re on a public stage. You want or need to keep some things private, so what do you talk about instead? Your ex has moved on and can see everything you post. Do you post honestly or defiantly say you’re living your best life even though you’re not? You need cash and people are paying you money to hawk junk. Do you accept or stay true to the brand that no longer fits anyways? She needs a bit of a reset or a reckoning. But you have to be a bit narcissistic to pursue all this in the first place so who knows how and if it will come.[/quote]
