The Single Spark with Chantelle the Coach (previously The Single Girl's Guide to Life)

As a single parent, it can be hard to find the time and energy to date. You may feel like you don’t have the luxury of going out on dates or taking time for yourself. And some of you single girls just have a lot of time on your hands that you can't always feel with social interactions with others.

So, what do you do with that free time when you’re stuck at home? A SOLO DATE NIGHT, OF COURSE!

Solo dates can be really fun, even if you're spending them at home! They're a great way to spend some quality time with ourselves, and they’re also relatively cheap and easy to do.

In this episode, Chantelle will share four solo date ideas for when you’re stuck indoors. Whether you’re looking for something active, creative, or just want to relax, we have you covered.

So, if you’re looking for some solo date ideas, look no further! Here are four great ideas for solo dates that you can do from the comfort of your own home.

Divorced at 26? It's not the expectation many of us have after getting married  but that was my reality.

It’s now been three years since I separated from my then husband, and in that time, I’ve learned a lot about myself – some of those things I never would have realized if I’d stayed in my marriage.

As painful and challenging as it is, I’ve grown and changed in ways I never would have thought possible, and I’m a stronger person now because of it.  I want you to know that it’s possible to come out of this experience stronger and wiser, so listen in to this week's episode where I share learn the lessons I’ve learned in the three years since my divorce.

I hope my story can give you some perspective. Divorce is hard, but it doesn’t have to be the end of the world - even though it feels like it at the time. There is life after divorce, and you soon find a new normal and a new way to be happy again.

What the hell is "cuffing season"?! It's this time of year that the phrase gets thrown about again, becayse cuffing season is the period of time between autumnand winter when single people start looking for someone to date or “cuff” to avoid being alone during the colder months.

Cuffing season has its advantages; if you're looking for company over the darker, colder winter months, then you can enjoy a short-term beau to have a distraction over the months.

But if you’re single and looking to mingle and find someone for the long term, then cuffing season may not be for you.

This week, Chantelle share tips for navigating cuffing season, no matter what your intention, and how to go about making the most of the opportunity that cuffing season can bring.

The holiday season can be a tough time for single people. The shorter days and longer nights can make us feel lonely and isolated. And, if we don’t have a partner to share the festive season with, it can be tempting to just stay in bed and hibernate until spring.

There are plenty of things single people can do to survive – and even thrive – during the winter months. From embracing the solo lifestyle to staying active and connected, there are plenty of ways to make the most of the season. Chantelle share her best tips and approaches after doing single life during winter, even during lockdowns, to make the most of being single during the winter time.

Friendship is one of the most beautiful things in life. It’s a special bond that is formed between two people who share common interests, values, and experiences. However, even the closest of friends can sometimes have disagreements that lead to tension and conflict, or an event like getting into a long-term relationship that can set you on the path of "drifting apart".

When this happens, it’s important to be able to have difficult conversations with your friends without losing your friendship. This can be a challenge, but it’s important to remember that your friendship is worth fighting for.

If you’re not sure how to have a difficult conversation with your friend without losing their friendship, Chantelle has a technique she learnt and has been practicing and executing ever since to make sure you can overcome those difficult conversations and not lose your friendships at the same time.

No one enters into a relationship expecting it to fail, but unfortunately, many relationships do. If you find yourself in the midst of a divorce or break-up, it can be a difficult and emotional time. 

It can be a tough process to go through, and it’s not made any easier by the fact that society doesn’t always make it easy for single women. In fact, it can often feel like the whole world is against you. 

However, it is important to remember that just because a relationship didn't work out, it doesn't mean that you nor the relationship are a failure. 

There is a lot to be learned from the experience, and it can be used as an opportunity to grow and become a better person. And there is no one right or wrong way to start afresh after a divorce or break up. It's a process that can take time, but there is a life after divorce, and you will eventually get to a point of being ready to celebrate your single life again. 

This week, Chantelle shares her ideas on how to get through the first stages of a break up and the reality of being single again, recalling elements of her own divorce three years ago, that prompted the start of The Single Girl's Guide to Life podcast.

It seems like every time you tell someone what you want in a relationship, you’re met with the same argument: you’re being too picky. Your friends, your family, even strangers(!) will all tell you that you need to lower your standards if you ever want to find a boyfriend. 

And with an abundance of dating apps and websites, there’s a never-ending pool of potential partners to choose from. So, if you’re holding out for someone who meets all of your criteria, it can feel like you’ll never find them.

But the truth is, you’re not being “too picky” – you’re just being selective. And there’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, having high standards is a good thing. On this week's episode of The Single Girl's Guide to Life, Chantelle discusses how having standards shows that you know what you want and how to hold those high standards, despite the scepticism that might surround you!

What is it about group experiences that is so magical? Is it the feeling of belonging to a community? The fun of meeting new people? The shared experience of something new?

For singles, group experiences can be especially magical. When you're not part of a couple or a family, it can be easy to feel left out or alone. But when you take part in a group experience, you instantly have a connection with the other people involved.

Whether it's a cooking class, a wine tasting, or a trip to a new city, taking part in a group experience is a great way to meet new people and have some fun. And who knows - you might just find your new best friend.

This week, Chantelle shares her experience of the magic of joining in with group experiences, especially when you're single, and why it's so important to put yourself out there!
