Jennifer Benson -Beautiful Possibilities

My inner ding led me on a 13-year journey to the Middle East to teach in 2002. I answered the call and leaped, leading me on the most authentic adventure of my life. To do this, I had to leave behind my family, my partner of 10 years, and my ESL teaching job.

I share with listeners my story of finding myself, meeting the man I would marry, surviving the 2004 tsunami, and what it was like to live in the Middle East as an ex-pat.

But after 13 years of being away from home in upstate New York, I needed to return. That choice led me to divorce and forced me to start over. It was that re-do that allowed me to become my most authentic and joyful self. I have not looked back.
