In our last episode, we explored how to shift your mindset when it feels like love is happening for everyone but you. But what if you’re not searching for love right now—because you’re actually thriving in your singlehood?
In this episode Dr. Marchell Coleman dives deep into a question that challenges long-standing societal norms: Are single people really happy being single? Spoiler alert: Many are not only content—they're flourishing.
We unpack the myth that happiness must come from a romantic relationship and explore why so many single individuals feel empowered, fulfilled, and deeply connected—without a partner. From emotional peace and self-discovery to purpose-driven living and rich social circles, this episode celebrates the vibrant lives of those who choose to live life on their own terms.
Plus, Dr. Marchell offers a powerful reflection: Have you ever felt pressured to be in a relationship because it seemed like the only path to happiness?
Whether you’re single by choice, in transition, or simply curious about what it means to thrive solo, this episode will inspire you to rethink what wholeness really looks like.
