Episode 3 - A Chat About the Importance of Being Happy on Your Own

When I was deciding whether or not do this podcast, I put some feelers out on social media and was blown away by the response that I got. So many people reached out to say they were glad this topic was finally being covered, shared their own experiences of loneliness, and some people even offered to join me for a chat.

Adele Slater, a friend and someone I’ve also been lucky enough to work with, was one of the first people to respond to my social posts. She was also the first person to say she’d like to talk about single positivity, and the importance of being able to, and actually prioritise, spending time alone.

My conversation with Adele is a breath of fresh air, and I hope it makes you feel as good as it made me feel. We talk about the potential to feel like failures in a society that favours women who are married with children, but we also share examples of role models we have who are paving the way for single women. We covered single positivity, and how this doesn’t mean we aren’t interested in starting relationships, it just means we don’t need them to feel like the best versions of ourselves.
