A Wedding Ring Is Not A Diploma
This one's different, friends! This month's public episode of A Single Serving podcast is actually not for my audience, it's for friends and family members who know and love a member of my audience. This episode is designed to be shared with someone you love to help them reframe singlehood for themselves in the same way that we've reframed it for ourselves, so that maybe this year at the holidays no one asks us "how are you still single?" Hey, we can try! If you're someone who loves a single person, listen to this episode if you'd like to be kinder to and more respectful of them moving forward. This episode is presented with love and in the hopes that we all have a very happy holiday season together.
This podcast publishes publicly and for free once a month. If you'd like to hear a new episode of this podcast every week, join my Patreon! Your membership also comes with access to the private, Patrons-only Facebook group, and instant access to EVERY episode I've ever published. Join here!
