Listen Later

Do you have fear of being single or dare I say it alone? Maybe you are single and feeling the societal pressures from friends to partner up or you feel a NEED to do so for financial reasons.

Well…this week my guest and I will flip the stigma around living life as a solo life.

And if you haven’t noticed, more and more people are choosing this path!

Tune into my lively chat with Dr. Peter McGraw, a bachelor, behavior economist, and business school professor at UC Boulder and host of the podcast Solo-The Single Person’s Guide to a Remarkable Life. Peter’s insights into living a fulfilling single life and solo lifestyle are enlightening and deeply empowering for anyone single or not. a

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Peter’s “ahh moment' and how that led to his Solo movement.
  • What it means to be solo. And no, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. 
  • The 3 defining traits of living solo and how to reinvent yourself from single to solo.
  • Challenging societal norms about traditional relationships and happiness can lead to a more fulfilling life.
  • Peter’s personal growth in embracing solo life and how it led to his happiness, offers a powerful example of self-realization.
  • The components of Peter’s foundation flourish model.
  • How to go from single to solo without becoming isolated. (Hint: you don’t have to give up anything you don’t want to.) 
  • His best tips on how to manage everyday aspects of solo living.  
  • And wait for his confession at the end. It’s the most valuable tip of our conversation!

Grab those earbuds because it doesn’t matter if you are in a relationship, single, or somewhere in between, there's something in this conversation that can help you live more authentically and joyfully.
