Ep. 235: Single in Sobriety: How To Maximize Happiness, Fulfillment And Be Your Own Best Life Partner

Being single in sobriety has a lot of advantages and some unique challenges. 

On the one hand you don’t have a partner in your home who might not support your choice to be sober, may be drinking themselves or be unwilling to remove alcohol from your house. You’ll control your own environment and have more time for self-care. 

But you’ll also be surrounded by a culture that promotes dating and socializing with alcohol. Being single in sobriety can stir up feelings of loneliness or isolation, fears of dating without a social lubricant and open evenings without accountability. 

On top of that, if you're like many women you've felt the pressure to pair up which can be triggering. 

We’re told from a young age that the ultimate goal is to find a romantic partner, and that success in life often equates to marriage. 

This narrative can lead to feelings of inadequacy if you’re single for longer than society thinks is “acceptable.” 

But what if we questioned that whole narrative? 

What if being single didn’t mean something was missing, but instead opened up the possibility for deep fulfillment, joy, and independence?

I invited Meghan Keane, author of Party of One: Be Your Own Best Life Partner, to help us explore how to embrace being single and redefine happiness on your own terms.
