practical advice and strategies

Where was this book six months ago? I repatriated back after 10 years living overseas. No family, a few friends but basically starting again after my marriage broke down. This has very practical advice that is easy to implement and bring to fruition. I will keep this book handy as I begin my new life solo and I hope it’s as useful to you as it has been to me. Five star!

Empowering words of wisdom about living life colo

I read this book in one sitting. As I reflect on this final chapter of life, I find myself alone - a soloist. My dreams and fears are intertwined. The flow of this book changed what could have been limiting beliefs into empowering perspectives that allow me to set the course for my own life.

extremely helpful and supportive literature

I have been single for many years now and not quite middle aged. I have feared what a solo lifestyle would look like going forward and feel I’ve learned a lot and have more of a plan after reading this book.
