Send us a textThis week on Thursday Thoughts, Polly and I are chatting about the filters we use to live our lives.Is your filter clouding your judgement? Is it colouring everything grey, making things seem worse than they really are? And how long are you willing to sit in that negativity?The thing is, when you change the lens through which you see the world, you get to choose one that lifts you, lightens you, and lets you see possibility instead of limitation.We explore some of the common filters we’ve had and how to shift them.We hope you find something useful in here.Love Polly & Lucy x Support the showPre-Order my book, SHINY HAPPY SINGLES (UK) / THRIVE SOLO (US & Canada) at: https://www.lucymeggeson.com/book Download my FREE PDF 'The Top 10 Answers To The Most Irritating Questions That Single People Get Asked On The Regular...& How To (Devilishly) Respond'?

Send us a textIn this week's episode of Thrive Solo, my guest is Camille Natalie, a content creator and social media strategist who empowers women over 40 to celebrate the single life rather than simply tolerate it. At 44 and thriving solo in Miami Beach, she has built her brand, Camille Natalie, around the mission of showing women that being single isn't a consolation prize—it's a powerful choice. Through her authentic content and strategic social media approach, Camille helps women reframe their relationship with singlehood and discover the joy, freedom, and fulfillment that comes with designing life on their own terms.During our conversation, Camille shares her journey of embracing singlehood, cultivating self-love, and navigating adult friendships. We also discuss topics such as the societal pressures of marriage and children, the nuances of living a child-free life, solo dating, and finding joy in everyday moments. Camille also highlights the importance of self-validation and the freedom that comes with living on one's own terms.02:14 Guest Introduction: Meet Camille Natalie03:26 Camille's Background and Life in Miami07:55 Journey of Being Single11:57 Self-Validation and Personal Growth18:57 Friendship Challenges for Single Women25:56 Effort in Building Connections27:27 Connecting with Single Moms27:46 Expectations of Motherhood28:48 Marriage and Societal Pressure29:59 Embracing Child-Free Life33:57 Choosing Happiness and Joy43:55 Solo Dates and Self-Empowerment49:40 Final Thoughts and FarewellFollow Camille on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/camillexnatalie/Follow Camille on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@camillexnatalieYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@camillexnatalie Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/camillexnatalie/ Instagram 1-on-1 Coaching Call: https://shop.beacons.ai/miamidatenite/iggrowthcall Support the showPre-Order my book, SHINY HAPPY SINGLES (UK) / THRIVE SOLO (US & Canada) at: https://www.lucymeggeson.com/book Download my FREE PDF 'The Top 10 Answers To The Most Irritating Questions That Single People Get Asked On The Regular...& How To (Devilishly) Respond'?

Send us a textOn today’s Thursday Thoughts, Polly & I are talking about people pleasing.We all do it - particularly women - but is it actually serving us? The need to belong and be liked often sees us doing or saying things that aren’t in alignment with who we truly are.When we put the needs of others above our own, we often end up feeling resentful and depleted, which is no good for anyone!In this conversation, Polly and I give examples of how we’ve both been people pleasers in the past, but how we’re now much more discerning about what we say yes to and - importantly - what we say no to.We hope you’ll find something useful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy x Support the showPre-Order my book, SHINY HAPPY SINGLES (UK) / THRIVE SOLO (US & Canada) at: https://www.lucymeggeson.com/book Download my FREE PDF 'The Top 10 Answers To The Most Irritating Questions That Single People Get Asked On The Regular...& How To (Devilishly) Respond'?
