Navigating love and marriage as a widow with Jess Ayres AKA The Singing Widow
This week's episode is a conversation about blending life as a remarried widow and how it works for Jess and her husband Don.
Jess’s first husband Justin died tragically in 2014 when their son Jax was just three days old.
Jess moved back in with her parents and sold the family home whilst she worked through grief and being a new mum.
Around sixteen months after Justin died Jess decided to dip her toe in the dating pond, which led her to meet her now husband Don, about two years after Justin died.
We talk about the challenges of dating as a widow and also what kind of a person you need to be to open your heart to dating a widow.
Jess shares the importance of knowing your worth and having that inner confidence and belief that you can find someone good again. She shares the challenges her and Don have faced and how to blend parenting in a new relationship.
Meeting someone new is learning to love two people at once, it’s not always easy but it’s worth it for sure.
