For Radhika Sanghani, author of the brilliant new novel 30 Things I Love About Myself, time alone holds an important significance as the space where she’s learnt the true meaning of self-love. Her book even includes an aspirational, alonement-loving heroine… and what could be better? Appearing as my first guest on this season of the podcast, Radhika brings an infectious, empowering energy and a whole smorgasbord of wise insights, from the relevance of her spirituality for her alone time to how she’s ‘proved herself’ to herself through solo travel: ‘I can tick that off my “being brave” list!’. 

We also discuss: 

• Why talking to yourself gets a bad rep (but is perfectly normal, we hope!)
• How to rewire your inner monologue
• Whether self love is fixed, or requires constant maintenance 
• Dating yourself, and why it matters
