Following ten years of use, Shani permanently deleted her dating apps in January of 2019. She has loved her life ever since. Topics discussed in this episode of A Fresh Story with Shani Silver: Dating apps prioritize profit over helping users find love. Singlehood should be reframed to focus on happiness and personal growth. Societal expectations and stigmas around relationships can be harmful. The lawsuit against Match Group highlights the addictive nature of dating apps. Dating apps can have addictive behaviors and may not deliver on what people are seeking. The pressure to find a romantic partner can lead to settling and compromising one's values. Dating apps lack safety measures and can expose users to abusive or predatory behavior. Living authentically and focusing on personal fulfillment is more important than conforming to societal expectations. It is crucial to challenge the commercialization of love and celebrate singlehood as a valid and fulfilling lifestyle.
Shani is the author of the book, A Single Revolution: Don't look for a match—light one, and the host of her own podcast, A Single Serving Podcast. On today's episode, her and I chat about why she deleted the dating apps after a decade of using them, reasons why none of us will die alone, her choice not to have children, and why she values living in a new city.

Singlehood is not a broken state that requires fixing. This is the core message of our guest, Shani Silver, who deleted her dating apps in 2019 and has been infinitely happier ever since. Shani reminds us that dating apps are a for-profit industry that stand to benefit from keeping you single rather than helping you find love, and they often deplete your self worth and mental health. Author of the fantastic book A Single Revolution: Don't Look for a Match. Light One. and host of A Single Serving Podcast, Shani firmly believes that you can enjoy your life as a single human while still hoping for a partnership. But this episode is not just for the singles out there! Shani helps people in couples reframe how they view their single friends and family members, and as a result of reading her book, we have personally stopped asking questions like "How's dating life?" or "Can I please fix you up with someone?" Shani offers zero apologies for living her life exactly as she wants to, and we offer zero apologies for Ellie's graphic colonoscopy story and Julia's description of her nuclear meltdown. Love us as we are or don't love us at all, but do listen to the episode and share it with your people.

If you are currently single and feeling exhausted by the dating apps, the games, the people who keep asking you your status and giving unsolicited advice… If you're feeling pressure from family, society, or even your own inner critic to finally settle down, or you're frustrated and starting to feeling hopeless because you feel like your life can't start or won't start until you find “the one”, well this episode of How to Find Joy is dedicated to you! My guest is going to blow your mind and flip your beliefs on its head because she is going to make you question everything you may have been taught to believe about being on your own AND empower you to show up with more joy, especially when you are in your singlehood! And for those of you who are in relationships, I'm also talking to you too because...1) if you're in a relationship or marriage that is toxic, but you stay because you are terrified about what it means to be single, I hope this conversation also comforts and supports you.2) Even if you're happy in your relationship, this episode will teach you how to better support and respect your single loved ones, which IMO is very important!-----------------Our guest today: Shani SilverShani Silver is an author of A Single Revolution and podcaster for A Single Serving from Fort Worth, Texas.

Sarah welcomes Shani Silver, who is an expert on Singledom. She discusses her book, A Single Revolution, her podcast, A Single Serving Podcast, and moving to New Orleans from Brooklyn. Shani emphasizes never to be desperate to find anyone. She and Sarah also talk about dating apps, and Shani describes them as “hope rollercoasters” that breed mental health problems and cause more harm than good. Men are not scarce resources, so women should not be afraid of growing older and being single. Love is not over at 37, and women are not just holes!

The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection. Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
A Single Serving Podcast publishes ONLY on Patreon every Monday morning, but once a year I like to gift subscribers who have found me throughout the year with one Patreon-only episode as a way to show you what you can expect from the podcast. I hope you enjoy one of my absolute favorite 2022 episodes, The Vilification Of Single Women. This episode does not hold back, it does not mince words, and it is DONE with the BS narrative that single women are a threat to married women's relationships. NOPE! We are done being vilified, and we are done moving through the world on eggshells so that we don't upset a married. It's an intense one and you know what—it should be. Because single people are not villains, and partnered people are not superior. Period. Shani's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/shanisilverShani's book: A Single Revolution: Don't Look For A Match.

In this week's episode of Spinsterhood Reimagined, I talk to New Orleans-based writer and podcaster, Shani Silver. Shani is truly a force for change when it comes to the current narratives around singledom, and her brilliant, inspirational podcast - A Single Serving Podcast - is a must-listen. She is also the author of 'A Single Revolution: Don't Look For A Match, Light One', a book which is helping women around the world feel better about this wonderfully free time in their lives. Shani is not an advocate for singlehood per se, but rather an advocate for single women feeling great whilst they are single. I was honoured to be able to spend some time in the company of such an intelligent, passionate and forthright individual. In this conversation, Shani and I cover an array of topics including the darker side of internet dating, how she is child free by choice, her decision to quit online dating for good and the reasons behind it, and the fact that she wrote her book in a month! I really hope you guys enjoy this interesting and insightful conversation. Shani can be found on Instagram @shanisilver and @asingleservingpodcast. She can be found on Twitter @shanisilver.

Being single has its absolute high moments. And it can also feel like an endless hell. Especially when you feel so done with it. Perhaps you get to the point that Shani Silver, humor essayist and podcaster did: ‘I had been dating fruitlessly for a full decade and there came a moment of absolute exhaustion. And it wasn't just exhaustion with dating or exhaustion with searching for someone, it was exhaustion with the frustration around those activities. I was tired of being tired of being single. It was enough.'So Shani changed her view on being single as something other than a problem to fix at any cost. She reframed the way she viewed and experienced her own singlehood, to increase her sense of self-worth and live her life at whole new levels of happiness, fulfilment and satisfaction. In this podcast Shani and I discuss her book, A Single Revolution', which spoke to my heart as a long-term former single winab. And I am sure will speak to your heart too. Show notes:How to reframe singlehood to increase your self worthUnderstand how dating in its current form is serving youAnd if not, what you can do insteadThe shame of singlehood is damaging, especially to women Reframe your life so that you feel empoweredJealousy is something that can be shed Fully embrace your own life and it's unique timelineSee the gifts that come to you because of being singleDecide on who you want to be in the world and own it Accepting the fantastic, custom-designed life that is yoursKnow that you are whole and complete right nowDon't wait for a partner to live the life exactly the way you want toLive life fully now – being happy is a present-time choiceAbout Shani:Shani Silver is a humor essayist and podcaster from Fort Worth, Texas who began writing at age six.

In this very special episode of A Single Serving Podcast, I am joined by podcast listener Christine Po, a Dermatology Physician Assistant based in Atlanta, Georgia. Christine reached out as a listener and her email was one I wished I could have shared with you all—so I made it a podcast episode instead. This is for anyone who has ever felt entirely alone in never having been in a relationship before, anyone who's ever experienced racism in dating, and anyone who has ever felt like there was just simply something wrong with you for being single. The episode also begins with my own deep dive and reframe into expectations around our least favorite question: "How's dating going?"Connect with Christine on InstagramJune Patreon Podcast EpisodesJesus Was Single with Kat HarrisFilter Of Fabulosity with Shani SilverEmpathy & Actual Answers with Jennifer Michelle Mason Unique Is Normal with Laura Behnke (mentioned in this week's episode) Nothing Personal by Nancy Jo SalesShe I Dare Not Name by Donna Ward Panel discussion with Donna Ward, Jody Day, and Civilla Morgan Join the Patreon for A Single Serving Podcast to get full access to all weekly podcast episodes and instant access to all existing Patreon-only episodes!Anti-Racism Resources For My White Friends & ReadersPodcast logo by Johanna PendleyPodcast hosted on BuzzsproutTranscript of podcast via OtterBook links are affiliate links.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/shanisilver)

Her newest book, Nothing Personal: My Secret Life in the Dating App Inferno addresses a topic very close to this community: Big Dating and the corporate takeover of our search for love. It’s not just you—maybe the gamification of dating is actually that bad. This episode hits home, hard.

Alex Kruger is a writer who recently published an essay with The New York Times’ Modern Love column. What’s the “right” approach to dating? An organized and thoughtful effort, or a hands-off attitude that lets what will be, be? Or…are both Alex and Shani 100% right? This episode is FULL of explorations into modern singlehood, and all the little idiosyncrasies and anxieties that come with it. A must listen for anyone who feels like dating is happening to them, rather than the other way around, as well as anyone who feels a little out of control.

We've all heard that question, “Who am I outside of this relationship/marriage”. Singleism, the term for people living life outside of a committed, romantic relationship, is an emerging area of focus on a state of living that many people experience at some point in life. There is so much wonderful momentum behind the concept of living life while single and destigmatizing past views of what “living single” means in order to open us all up to the possibilities of our very own selves! Helping us explore the beauty and challenges of single hood at any age is NFCC's Lead Clinician, Heather Timmis, MA, LMFT-S. About Heather Timmis: Heather Timmis is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor (LMFT-S) who works with families, couples and individuals ages 3 years and up. She holds a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin as well as a master's degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of Houston-Clear Lake. Heather has experience helping clients work through challenges related but not limited to sexual abuse, trauma, suicidal thoughts/actions and anxiety. She believes in a flexible, collaborative approach where she and her client work as a team to determine the best fit for the client's needs. In addition to her amazing clinical work, Heather is obsessed with all things pop culture and experienced her fair share of dating apps before she finally met her fiancé.

Shani Silver is a writer and podcast host working to change the way that being single is seen in the world. Both her writing and her show, A Single Serving Podcast, seek to create content for single women that's about way more than dating. In this episode, Shani tells us the story of how she Continue Reading…
Because it's not, and Shani Silver wants to tell you why. Shani has been single for a decade, and one day she just became tired. Not tired of being single, but tired of being mad about it. And that's when things started to change for Shani. In today's episode, Shani shares how she changed her life by taking a different approach to being single than what we're normally taught. She explains how she got here, what dating looks like these days, and how she was able to start enjoying her life again. I was excited to have Shani on the show because she's a beautiful example of being hopeful and optimistic, but at the same time completely present. Meaning, she's looking forward to the future, but she's also truly loving her present. Her perspective on dating is so refreshing (and needed), that she scored a column with Refinery29 titled, "Every Single Day" and hosts a podcast called "A Single Serving Podcast." Shani is changing the conversation for shamed singles everywhere, so that we can finally look at this time in our life with clarity There's so much wisdom in this one. Enjoy!
