What happens when two widow podcasters get together? You’ll find out on this week’s Filled With Gold Widow Podcast as I talk with Jen Zwinck of Widow 180!
Jen Zwinck is the founder and host of Widow 180: The Podcast and Widow 180: The Channel.
In 2011, her husband was walking home from a bachelor party when he was attacked, robbed, and killed. Jen instantly became a young widow, left to raise their two-year-old daughter alone.
Overcome with grief and anxiety over the loss, Jen chose her own unique path to heal. She packed 4 suitcases and moved with her daughter to a tiny island in the Caribbean where she knew no one. The years she spent on the island gave her the time to process the loss and rebuild her own strength and courage to move forward.
Jen believes that every widow has the capacity to endure, the power to overcome, and the determination to create a new life with meaning and purpose.
That’s how Widow 180: The Podcast came to be. It’s a show about turning tragedy, loss, and fear into strength, creativity, and a new passion for life. Each week a different widow is interviewed to share her story of loss, how she coped, and how she has taken the lessons she’s learned and used them to transform and grow.
Jen’s mission through the podcast, the YouTube Channel, blog posts, coaching and speaking is to arm other widows with powerful stories of transformation and knowledge so that they can navigate life after loss.
Her newest online program is called Dating After Loss: A 4 Step WISH Program For Widows And Widowers Looking to Find Love Again. She helps widows and widowers overcome the overwhelm of getting back into the dating scene after losing their spouse!
Jen remarried in 2017. She and her husband Doug welcomed a new baby girl, Penelope, in 2018. They are enjoying a fun and crazy life as a family of four, in a new house in South Louisiana!
“Widowed moms...we figure out how to make things happen (for our kids).”
