Zdenka Juric

Interpreter, translator and relationship experience contributor

Zdenka Juric is an interpreter and translator whose biography in Ready, Aim, Succeed! describes forty years of professional experience. Her work brought her into contact with people dealing with family, migration and other demanding circumstances.

Her contribution also draws on marriage, motherhood and grandparenthood. Zdenka and her husband spent many years on different continents, giving Survive & Thrive In Your Long Distance Relationship a personal foundation.

The chapter considers communication, trust, shared plans and the adjustments that happen around departure and reunion. Zdenka describes the value of family support, study, faith activities and ordinary humour while partners are apart.

Her biography mentions an interest in further counselling study, without claiming that it was completed. The chapter is offered as lived relationship experience. Its particular perspective comes from someone who has thought carefully about maintaining emotional connection while managing substantial geographical distance.
