EPISODE 26

Four Years Single: Falling in Love with Myself, Awakening, and Wholeness

What happens when you intentionally step away from dating and fully embrace solitude?

In this episode, I share my deeply personal journey through four transformative years of being single in my early forties—a time that challenged my expectations, reshaped my beliefs, and led me to profound healing and self-discovery. From spiritual up-leveling, liberation and loneliness, to the joyful embodiment of my inherent wholeness, I share how healing codependency, inner child and shadow work, embracing autonomy, and reconnecting with my highest self liberated me to live authentically, fully empowered in my true purpose.

This journey of being single over the past four years has not only been the most healing and magical years of my life, but it also prepared me for my ultimate union and relationship that’s on the horizon. This episode is an invitation to learn how to fall in love with yourself and reimagine solitude. I discuss how cultivating a deeper relationship with yourself transforms every aspect of your life and creates a healthier foundation for richer, more aligned connections with others. When you prioritize a relationship with yourself and nurture your wholeness and authenticity, your entire world (inner and outer) transforms in magical and incredible ways.
