You're Single, We Get It

Words matter.  The words the media and friends, family, and colleagues use to talk about singles.  The words we ourselves use.   Our rhetoric shapes the way society thinks about us, and, very often, the way we think about ourselves.  Join us as Kimberly, Lisa, Carol, Greg, and I chat about the language and rhetoric used around being single.    Share your experiences on our Facebook page (just search for You're Single, We Get It) or on Twitter (@YSWGI) and leave us a rating on itunes (it'll help grow our community).   Make sure you see all of our FB posts by selecting (under the "Liked" drop down menu) - notifications on and see first in your news feed.

For a long time I thought intimacy was something that could only be experienced in a romantic relationship. That's totally not true!  There are so many ways singles can experience intimacy.

Join in as Marci, MJ, Gracy, David, Lewis, and I do some real talk about intimacy.
