How to enjoy being single - stop waiting for love and start living - Graham Norton's advice that changed everything

Whether you're newly single or you've been single for years; this is the episode that changes how you see everything.


Host Bree Steele introduces the concept that started it all: what if you treated your single life as the most intentional, exciting chapter - not a waiting room for a relationship?

After crying on the kitchen floor at 4am, losing her job, moving to Mumbai alone on gut instinct, and getting brutally honest advice from Graham Norton, Bree stopped waiting and started living.


As a solo female traveller living abroad alone in one of the world's most chaotic cities, Bree shares why being single and free was the most powerful position she's ever been in, and how you can find that too.


In this episode you'll learn:

• Why we're the first generation who can choose to be single and why we still don't know how to enjoy it

• How to shift your mindset from waiting for a relationship to actually living your single life

• The story behind the Last Year of Single List and how to make your own

• Graham Norton's brutal, honest advice on being single and why it hit differently

• Why solo female travel and living abroad alone is one of the most powerful things a single woman can do

• The fears and excitement of deciding to stop settling and start living
