The positive effects of being happily partnered with other human beings are well-documented. For instance, we know that the mutual support such relationships provide is instrumental in keeping us alive longer. Less understood is what happens — emotionally as well as physically — if these ties are severed. So when science journalist Florence Williams‘ marriage of 25 years ended, she experienced the pain of something that had eluded her for her entire life: heartbreak.
On this episode, Florence — author of Heartbreak: A Personal and Scientific Journey — joins us to discuss why we should be taking heartbreak as seriously as we would any other ailment that can exacerbate existing medical conditions and create new ones, how the chronic loneliness brought about by heartbreak can increase the risk of early death by as much as 26 percent, and what we can do to mitigate these effects if we find ourselves suffering from heartbreak. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
