How Our Relationship SURVIVED MED SCHOOL & RESIDENCY

Love is not easy. It took work and effort on both of our parts to grow together. We've been through disapproving parents, cultural differences, gender rolls, children, buying a house, finance and all of that while on a med student and resident schedule. And I'm proud to say that we've made it out stronger than before.

    Congrats on 100k Jenny!! I’ve been watching you since you’re early days when you’d long board you medical school and remember when you had to do long distance 😢 I recently read a paper about the high rates of divorce in medicine (especially in residency) compared across different specialties, it’s great to hear a more personalized point of view ❤️ thanks for making such great videos!!

    Happy to see people working hard on their marriage. These days marriages just don't seem so sacred to some... the stories you hear, sheesh it's like even spouses come with a "return by" date. So many people do not have that level of commitment anymore.

    I often joked to my husband (then boyfriend --> fiancee) that he needed to join a "husband of doctors" support group! I'm so lucky that he met me in my first year of med school and we've been together since my third, all through until now (just about to fellow). Communication has been key, as has talking frankly about expectations and future planning! Respect and learning one another's love languages has also helped a LOT

    Hi Dr.Jenny. I stumbled upon your channel and I how you're incorporating your life as a mom/wife but also showing us your life as a doctor. It's been very eyeopening to see that doctors aren't all unapproachable. Watching this video has inspired me to give more to the world and my significant other. I highly believe in karma and i think the energy you give out is the same wavelength of energy you get back. It gives life a meaning and how to act accordingly for a better life. great video!

    Me and my wife are celebrating our 10 year anniversary next month. She started her medical residency 7 months ago and anyone who says being a doctor's spouse is easy is a liar. I'm still adjusting...

    This was very insightful. When you said that both need to have common goals, what goals should we cover, financial or career or marriage?

    Thank you for this, I’ve been wishing for this kind of video for a while! I’m educating myself about marriage even though I’m single lol. Makes me think if there really is a change of trend in the younger generation.

    Thank you so much for this! I just started my channel, and I start medical school in a week. I've been in a relationship for six years and we're nervous about this new chapter and how it might challenge us as a couple. This was so helpful and reassuring. Thank you!

    One thing I learned from the break up with my high school sweetheart back in 2009 was this: “If you aren’t growing together, you’re going to grow apart.” We always have to keep in mind that we, as individuals, are constantly changing. The person we were last year most likely isn’t the person we are today, so we can’t expect our significant other to be the same person the whole time either. I found that this thought process definitely helps as the years go on 💝 ended up marrying my best friend, he knows me better than I know myself sometimes, and leaves space for me to grow. Friends 2009-2013 (we know each others exes and coached each other through relationships, it was odd when we first started dating!), dated 2013-2018, married 2018.

    You have a beautiful family, and you're doing a great job... I do think you way overthink things though... Relax your mind, take every day as it comes...don't over analyze everything, you'll drive yourself crazy..
