I'm going to die alone. I'm never going to find my person. I'm going to be single forever.

If you are dating and struggling to find your person, I bet this thought has crossed your mind at some point because it's really, really common and it can be very scary.

And indulging this kind of mindset can actually be an obstacle to creating

the type of healthy relationship you seek.

And even if you're in a relationship, fears of being alone can lead you to stay in a relationship

that really needs to end.

So there's a lot here to unpack, and that's why we're talking about it on today's episode.

My hope is by the end of our time together today, you have a new perspective on what

fears of being alone are really all about and how you can not just manage them, but do some

very important growth work that will improve your life, improve the way you feel, and also

set you up to create the kind of connection that you want and deserve.

Ty Siegel is a genius.

This is a song So Alone, which I chose for obvious reasons.

And also just because I wanted to share it with you, because it's awesome.

mindsets, behaviors that are actually going to get you where you want to go.
