[#21] Love Letters, Heartbreak & How to Rebuild When You Feel Worthless | The Pokes & Jokes Podcast

Описание: In Episode 21 of The Pokes & Jokes Podcast, Grace and Jen settle in for a long, honest, emotional rollercoaster of an episode. After catching up on life—Grace’s New Zealand tattoo-convention trip, running sunrises, and Jen’s new short-film role—they dive head-first into a special Love & Dating edition of the podcast.

Listeners sent in some of the most raw, heartfelt dilemmas yet. Grace and Jen talk openly about love-bombing, insecurity traps, losing yourself in relationships, and how heartbreak can warp your sense of worth. They unpack a powerful letter about body image, comparison culture, the gym, and how to rebuild confidence from scratch.

It’s funny, unfiltered, supportive, chaotic, and vulnerable in all the best ways. Grab a brew and settle in.
