A New Chapter

[@graces6561]

oh and as a child of divorced but always amicable and loving parents i always say i am so grateful they made that decision to split when i was young. it gave me the best life possible and they went on to each have new partners - i got to witness that new love, have two happy parents AND have two amazing families!

[@piggywan]

Hey Jenn, me and my daughter’s dad got divorced when she was 2 years old. Now that she’s 8 let me tell you how our life looks like so far. Me and her dad talk every day, see each other almost every day. She still gets to hold both of our hands while walking to school on “back to school” days. We both got re-married, I had a baby and now his wife is also expecting. We now are a huge family. I always tell my daughter that me and her dad we’re like two different continents and she’s the bridge. No divorce is easy but when you set your priorities right, it works out just fine. Give it time and you’ll find your way. Wishing you the best ❤

What is the final switch that got you out of the relationship? Cause i know its a total roller coaster everyday, where at one point i’m crying and telling myself i can do better myself but the next day things just started to get better being together. But the cycle always comes back. Being together means to almost forgive each other almost every time. But I don’t know how to be alone too.

[@EmmaShute]

As a primary and high school teacher who works very closely with children through to teenagers, including learning support and wellbeing, your decision to reduce your sons digital footprint to almost zero is absolutely the correct choice! You’re amazing and so is Ben. Excellent parents, and you are doing it right! I firmly believe co parenting can actually be very beneficial for children. Keep going! And lots of love to Ben as well Xx

[@debbie.9752]

why is it the correct choice to reduce their digital footprint? wondering for my future

[@CherylGoer]

As we get older, we come to realize that a lot of things are out of our control. As much as we like to plan for the future, we must learn to stay positive and keep moving forward when things don’t align with what we had pictured. I’m so glad that you guys are co-parenting your son and still giving him the love he deserves. Stay strong and happy!🤍 Things always work out the way they should.

So true...I used to plan my life out but it just don't seem to go the way I want it to. It just stress me out. Now I just go with the flow. We really don't know what will happen in the future so stop worrying too much about it. Instead enjoy the moments now.

I abandoned your channel because of that 💔 but i always felt happy for you and your new steps because i once could relate to it. Now i'm in a totally new place. I'm in love again with the most beautiful soul i've ever met and things are going great but life... life is just changing every second. We have to make decisions and hope for the best. I'm really sorry about what you are going through but you've been always an intelligent and inspiring woman, I'm pretty sure we all are going to learn a lot about your new chapter.

Can I second this? I’m currently in an almost 10 year relationship with my partner and we too share a beautiful 4 year daughter together. But I question all the time about our relationship and how unhappy we are. We are just trying to stick out our differences and not try to kill each other for the sake of our daughter. I feel like it’s so toxic and the best choice is to leave before it gets worse. It almost feels like we are enabling an abusive relationship 😢. Would love to hear about your past choices and thoughts on this topic!

[@thatschicblog]

JENN - ugh you are in such a healthy headspace despite the hardships. I can't even imagine how hard it was to come to this conclusion and to lean into this new era of picking yourself. Picking yourself when you start questioning what feels right; picking yourself when people want to bring you down; picking yourself when you have no one immediately available to comfort you. I am also in process of individuating through an intense relationship of enmeshment, and it's very confronting and challenging, but wow, is that growth so spectacular and beautiful. And we're not even on the other side. Cheers to you my dear for this new chapter and to navigating it with such grace. You and your family will look back at this time with such gratitude for your expansiveness.

My parents split when I was 12 and I really appreciated the way they did it and I tell them often as an adult how much I appreciate the way they went about it. They split up in March and only told us in June after the school year was over so it wouldn’t affect our grades or anything. Afterwards my mom moved out and from then on my parents would actively not speak badly about eachother in front of us, they never tried to make us pick sides and they were always good with eachother where they and their new partners could both be there for the important moments in our lives. I was sad at first but now I’m very happy that they made us the priority in all this, while some of my friends parents couldn’t be in the same room and they constantly had to choose and they were always in a chaotic environment, so mom and dad, thanks.

Dear Jen, you are so strong. This step requires the entire courage of one's being and it must be taking so much from you but hoping that the healing is worth it. Sending you so much love ❤️

[@Kaylinnf56]

Jenn, i've been with you since the Sarah days. Im so sorry you're going through a hard time. Life is tough, parenting is tougher. Please don't forget to make time for yourself and take care of yourself. We're all rooting for you ❤

[@efggrtco]

I basically grew up with you Jenn .. from Clothesencounters and witnessing Ben, Eggie, the proposal... curlupclub... having Lennon, and now this... Idk what to feel but one thing's for sure... I'm proud of you Jenn!!!!! hugs!!!! 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂

[@rj4356]

I hope Ben is okay too! He sacrificed alot to adapt. It can't be easy when his fam is in the UK❣️🎉🥰.

[@poojakumaraguru8641]

I feel like this is very unfair to him. He can’t move back because his son is here. He doesn’t have a family here now either. The kind of sacrifice Ben did - most men from most countries won’t support their women like this at all.

[@rj4356]

@poojakumaraguru8641 It is unfair to Ben. I knew this was going to happen. You see it in "solo" travel vids, the expressions on "friends" faces & their subtle comments, the in-laws always around, the house purchase in the paper (no mention of hubby's name) Wow.

@@LuxuryMommy You are INSANE for this speculation. Get a life.

[@jenniferl3113]

⁠​⁠@@LuxuryMommyI don’t think this is true at all! In Asian culture it’s very normal for in laws to help look after the kid and be around all the time.. my grandma pretty much raised me even though my mum was around too.. I dont think it’s fair that your life as an individual must stop when you become a mum, otherwise you’re not a good one.

[@nicolebennett9095]

@@LuxuryMommyThis is a wild take. In many cultures the mother will have their own mom help out and allow the mother to rest and the dad. She had just had the baby and PPD is something to help with at all costs if you can. It truly takes a village to raise a baby. I just think they both were not ready to have a kid and still love their son and took it on but these huge life choices can sever relationships.

[@deedekitty13]

I can’t believe I’m writing this but this video compelled me lol but Jenn I love you and your spirit and your energy and your videos. You were the first KZbinr that I ever watched intentionally in college 13 years ago and it introduced me to a world of KZbin that I love so much - one with beautify, lifestyle, GRWM, fashion, introspection, and education. Your videos have always been my safe haven. And I never comment on KZbin videos lmaoo cuz I’m too much of a weenie for that lol but I hope you know how much you mean to us and how you just sharing this stage in your life means so much. I recently broke up with a long term partner and we are the best of friends but it still is something that I will be healing from for a while. And it’s still hard and emotional and different and okay and everything you expressed and I appreciate it so much. I’m so happy for you, Ben, and Len because he’s gonna grow up with amazing happy parents and that’s all that matters and that’s all a kid growing up wants and needs. You are the dopest fucking mom. I can’t wait to continue being on this journey with you! I’m so proud you are my fav KZbinr ❤

[@kanishkarathore4638]

Jenn you are one of those people on this platform that I love for the fact that you always limit sharing your kid's life with us, people just go ahead and share whatever they want the moment that should not be shared, absolutely destroying the privacy of their children, you as a parent is doing amazing. ❤

[@mariafernandaabreufonseca9640]

That's crazy! I was watching one of your latest videos and I thought you didn't seem all right, so I scrolled and saw this video. I'm sending you a lot of love and light! I'm sure you have all the skills to navigate that, but it doesn't mean it's going to be easy. Also, omg these people judging you for not showing your toddler. It's your choice, and I'm sure you'll find a balance that works.

[@nurita4]

I've been following you since forever it feels like lol and it's crazy how life changes for everyone and this just feels like a good friend you hadnt talked to in a while is updating you. I separated from my exhusband almost 2 years ago and it was 10 years since we met this month. It's very relatable and it makes me feel like I'm not alone when it feels like we are alone :)

[@돌돌이-d4s]

Jenn I always get so much power and strength from your videos. You are a beautiful, confident and strong young lady. There is nothing that could hold you back! You can do anything Jenn.

[@anle3938]

Sending you so much love and support and we are all here for you!!!! You’ve spoken so articulated and expressing yourself so well and that’s fantastic to heal . Looking positively and forward to continuing this healing and new chapter with you !

[@lisbeth2557]

May you take all the time to heal 🫶🏻

[@Alexys808]

Jenn, I commend you for sharing this part of your life no matter how painful it is. Watching this brought me back to a time when I experienced heart break and did exactly what you did - I took a trip to the homeland (Philippines) and it felt extremely good being in the farms with poor cell service. I came back to the States with refreshed soul. This too shall pass and everything gets better again. Sending you all the love in your healing journey

[@shesyen]

Been Following your journey for 12 plus years. You are seriously the most down to earth realist person I have ever come across on the internet. You're as real as they get!

[@skyjellyhazel]

Hi Jenn, this is my first commet to you since I have been subscribing you. I am not sure but I was quite young when I first met you - maybe my late teen or early twenties around 2010. Now I found myself in early thirties. Most of all, I would like to thank you for all the energies and the strength you have given during my good days and my bad days. Your cheerful energy and power to life and sharing them with good will have always been so inspiring to me. As I have been always receiving, I hope my short comment could be the same to you. Please note that we are here for you with all our heart. I thought I know myself 100% during the time when I met you but going forward, now I am so not sure about who I am - but this is life, isn't it? I decided to embrace the uncertainty of who I am and trust this will lead me further. Hope you could find your inner strength and also be vulnerable too. Love you so so much from Korea.

[@almirajoyann]

I cried and almost sobbed watching this. You've always been so genuine and that's why everyone always comes back to your channel. Thank you for sharing your life with us for the past 13 years, and I wish you nothing but the best for you and your family.

She is happy dear

[@LVfreedommatters]

@jennim- I’ve been watching you for a while and your videos just help me cope thru stress. Most of my stress comes from my marriage of 5 years and have a 1 year old. I have been doing everything I can within my power to clutch onto this relationship that has been feeling so disconnected for a while- since we been married. We fought a lot. It all stems from lack of communication. We have such different communication styles. I like to address it then and there, at least within the day of the fight or disagreement. He likes to not talk about it and forget about it. I can’t bring up stuff he does that bothers me or his family does that I find that there should be some boundaries. Long story short, I’ve been feeling super depressed bc I feel like I’ve been stuck in this vicious cycle .. I just think that you’d probably understand what I’m going through. I just wanted to vent.. thanks for listening

[@KitsuneBozu1]

I relate to this so deeply. Navigating a breakup with a longterm partner that you still have a lot of love for is such a different type of heartbreak. I don't have a child with my ex, and we don't see each other, but I still grieve "us." My alone times are truly alone as well. Sometimes it is truly overwhelming, but I like what you said about trying to romanticize it. ❤ I wish you continued healing and lots of happiness in your new chapter.

[@seachelles7]

You’ve got this! Very respectful of your decision to keep your son out of your digital presence and I look forward to seeing what you post as you enter this season of rediscovering yourself. Hope to see vids of the new home decor when it’s all sorted

[@lilgege527]

Proud of you! You’re doing the best you can and that’s all that matters. Keep going! You’ve got this Jenn ❤

[@h2osgetaway76]

Thank you for sharing this Jenn! I’m in my early 20s and don’t even relate being a mom but I’m getting so much good energy from you and my heart’s more at peace watching this.

[@sandratcarrascom8024]

Jenn, you are super strong and a great person. Keep taking one day at a time. I send a big hug!!!! You got this!!!

[@joulessss]

I'm also going through the end of a long relationship, and I fully relate to the journey of self-discovery you're going through right now. I know it's emotionally challenging, but it's a beautiful experience to have the opportunity to get to know and to fall in love with yourself all over again :)

[@shaniecemacneill3273]

Awe Jenn! You have such a beautiful soul. Thank you for your vulnerability. I love your perspective on life. Hang in there ❤

[@insideddsworld]

I'm sorry to hear what you are going through, unfortunately or maybe fortunately, its life. It'll take some time, thanks for sharing an update and wishing you all the good healing and vibes!

Life will always throw us curve balls. It’s how we catch and deal with those balls that continue to allow us to grow as an individual. You’re an awesome person. You and your son will be awesome. Wishing you all the best! ❤

[@misseddyyy]

So proud of you and Ben for being able to still co-parent and maintain a healthy relationship for your son regardless of the separation. I am so sorry to hear that you two separated and I will pray for you both! I can’t imagine how you are feeling.. I still remember when you first introduced us to Ben as your boyfriend.. You are both strong and amazing people. I pray your healing and recovery will continue with this significant change. Stay strong for your little one and self ❤

Thank you for sharing Jenn. This is a hard time but I pray for healing and strength during this time. Thank you for being vulnerable. Lots of love..

[@imnotnnp.s]

Sorry to hear that 😢 Listened to all these was hard enough. It must be 1000 times harder for you too. But you are so brave. You admitted it, shared it and settled you mind for what's next to come. That's how a wonderful person you are, Jane. Well, I've been watching your content since 'cloth encounter'. You are just like a friend whom I haven't met yet. I truly wish you all the best. Send lots of love and a big hug to you from Thailand ❤

[@meredithkoh2128]

‘Part of me awaken… it’s scary.. also electrifying to feel alive’ I could not have relate to this better this year. Had a big change, bad change but somehow a part of life has awaken, very scary and painful but I feel much more on the ground. If it weren’t for the people around me I wouldn’t know how to move forward.

[@fluffylilmarshmallow4525]

I can relate to this so much. Once I made the decision to divorce my ex, I felt like I was barreling forward into some unknown oblivion at a breakneck pace. It was electrifying and terrifying all at once. You are a real one and I wish you the best. We're all in this rollercoaster of life together. ❤ Fellow human, let's do this thing together.

[@meredithkoh2128]

@@fluffylilmarshmallow4525 thank you, I wish you the best too.❤️❤️❤️

[@spiritawaywithme]

Went through it when my son was exactly the same age. People also judged me for not being a good mom, and I definitely got defensive about it and told them to STFU. I also felt alone as well, but as the time went on, I became comfortable with the new life. Best of all, I became so proud of myself for all the super power and love I could give my son. There is light at the end of the tunnel, I promise you that you’ll see it sooner than you expected. Lots of love and positive vibes to you ❤
