Can We Not Let Our Breakups Break Us

Getting over a painful breakup can be one of the hardest things we will ever experience—why doesn’t our culture have any rituals for mourning a lost love? Psychotherapist Ms. Tasha Jackson, MA, takes the TEDx Talk stage to discuss the messy work of learning to mend your heart and love again by sharing her personal story and professional remedies for not allowing “breakups to break us” as we try to stay connected during this “loneliness epidemic.” Finding symbolism, wisdom, and even humor in heartbreak, Jackson inspires anyone grieving a lost love to get their hearts pumping again.
