Send us a textSupport the showIn this week’s episode, I’m talking to the fabulous Eva Papadopoulou.Eva is a psychologist who is originally from Athens, Greece, but who has lived in London for nearly 20 years. She is happily single and childfree. Topics that Eva & I cover are:how Eva always knew that the traditional life path wasn’t for her;the resistance Eva faced as she was growing up, and how hard that was;how Eva is an only child, and how subsequently her parents struggled to accept that she didn’t want to follow the prescribed path;how when she tried relationships, Eva felt as though she was losing herself;how some people shine by themselves, and some people ‘merge’ and shine together;how freedom to Eva is freedom of time, freedom of resources, and freedom to use your space the way you want;how being single and childfree gives you the opportunity to grow;how life is about becoming the best version of yourself;what Eva means by ‘owning your happiness’;how there is more opportunity to push outside of your comfort zone, and take risks, when you’re single;how we need to be conscious about creating our own happiness, and the idea that it’s an inside job;how Eva finds much of her happiness and connection in nature;being self-aware, and identifying the moments where you can find joy every day;how, in 2009, Eva felt as though she had lost her purpose, and how a subsequent cancer scare was the catalyst for her solo trip around the world.Eva’s advice for the single ladies who aren’t happy about their relationship status.Follow Eva on Instagram:@evapap2000Follow Eva on LinkedIn:Eva Papadopoulou 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 all about starting over, starting again, or finally starting that thing you've always wanted to do.We are often led to believe that once you get to a certain age, or a certain stage in life, that it would be foolish, or embarrassing, or even pointless to start all over again. I, for one, do not believe this to be the case.Even if the people around us think we're crazy, and even if we're scared, it is more than  possible to take the leap and make a fresh start. What is crazier and scarier is to continue living a life that feels mediocre. And we don't need to know exactly what it'll look like, how it'll pan out, or even how we're going to go about it; we just need to start, because clarity comes through action. So many of the best things in life appear on the other side of uncertainty. So what are you waiting for? It's never too late to start over.    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 textToday's episode is a solo one where I'm talking about being single at Christmas - and a couple of other random things. I talk about some of the reasons why it's great to be single at Christmas, as well as a couple of things we can do to feel better about our solo Christmas. I also talk about why Christmas as a single woman does not have to be any less fun or less lovely than Christmas as part of a couple.Finally, I share my thoughts on the changing narrative around singlehood, and why I believe there is a shift in consciousness around women on their own. I hope you find something in here that is useful.Happy Christmas! xxx 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'?
