Send us a textOn today’s Monday Motivation, Polly and I are talking about possibility.So many of us hold ourselves back in life because we don’t think things are possible for us. We allow our limiting beliefs to convince us that this or that could “never happen for me.”But what if we started to cultivate a mindset that believes in possibility? What if we allowed ourselves to dream that the things we truly desire ARE possible, if we just believe in ourselves, and start taking baby steps towards them?If we fight for our limitations, we get to keep them (a wise person once said, not me!); so let’s start leaning into the possibility that we, too, are just as worthy, deserving and capable of achieving the things we dream of as anybody else. Because, seriously, why not you? 😉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'?

Send us a textOn today's minisode, I'm talking about those feelings of being 'less than' that sometimes creep into our minds, even when we're happily living our single, childfree lives.I'm also talking about how, no matter how secure we might be in who we are, being around certain people from our past can make us regress back to our 17-year-old selves. The truth is that the power of the societal narrative around single women means that we may never be able to fully shake off the feeling that we haven't quite hit the mark in life.Press 'Play' and let me know what you think.Need some morning accountability?

Send us a textOn this week's Thursday Thoughts, Polly & I are talking about living intentionally.Being intentional means cultivating awareness of how you're living and how you're showing up in the world. Without this awareness, it's easy to slip into autopilot, letting life pass us by without feeling like we're the ones in control.But when you choose to live with intention, you become conscious of where you're directing your thoughts and your energy.You become more present, making deliberate choices that align with your values and goals, and you reclaim control of how you respond to life's daily challenges.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'?

Send us a textOn this week's minisode, I'm talking about finding a balance between being happily single, but also desiring a relationship. The duality between loving your life here and now, and wanting to be in a relationship, can feel contradictory; but one does not cancel out the other.In this episode, I share my thoughts on how we can both embrace our lives right now, whilst also holding space for the potential of romantic love.Press 'Play' and let me know what you think!  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 this week's Thursday Thoughts, Polly and I are talking about embracing ageing.It’s time to change the narrative - and let’s face it, we’re talking about women here - that you are ‘past your sell by date’ once you hit 40, 50, 60 etc.The truth is that age brings with it so many wonderful things, not least confidence, wisdom and experience. And can choose to embrace getting older by looking after ourselves properly, and truly owning the fact that age is just a number. Because let’s not forget the alternative…💀Rather than focusing on external beauty, we’re better off focusing on our inner landscape, because it’s our energy and our vibrancy that actually shine through, no matter how old we are.Women, like men, get better with age. So let’s not write ourselves off because we still have so much to give!And finally, don’t listen to the noise. Keep doing the inner work and your true beauty will radiate from within. 🩶🖤🤍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'?

Send us a textThis week, it's a solo episode which has nothing to do with being single and childfree! Instead, I'm talking about another topic that I'm passionate about — my morning routine.I've started a 'morning routine club' named Cockadoodle-Lu (you can thank my sister for the name) for women who want to start their mornings off with positivity, calm, and intention, rather than beginning their days feeling flustered and stressed.On Mondays, Tuesday and Wednesday, we're going to meet at 6am on Zoom for 30 minutes of yumminess — including meditation and gratitude — that are going to set you up for a fabulous day. Because when you win the morning, you win the day; and when you win your days, you win life!Find out more here:https://www.lucymeggeson.com/cock  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 this week's Thursday Thoughts, Polly & I are talking about embracing failure.We have been conditioned to see failure as something negative, but in fact failure is an important part of the learning process, and a very necessary step along the pathway to success.Polly & I discuss how failure gives us essential feedback, and how success is more about carrying on after a 'failure', rather than giving up.When it comes down to it, failure is something to be embraced, rather than something to be avoided or feared.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'?
