Join therapist, author & mindset coach, Dr Marny Lishman to transform solitude from something to fear into a powerful catalyst for personal growth.In a world obsessed with finding "the one," Dr Marny Lishman is asking a radical question: What if the most transformative relationship you'll ever have is the one with yourself?
The World Health Organization declared loneliness a global public health priority in 2025, with approximately one in six people worldwide reporting feelings of loneliness. Yet Dr Lishman argues that society's rush to fix single status may be making things worse.
We've been sold the story that happiness requires a partner. That being single is a waiting room, a problem to solve, a gap to fill. But being alone doesn't equate to feeling lonely, in the same way that not being alone doesn't guarantee you won't feel lonely.
Drawing on fifteen years of clinical experience as a Psychologist, as well as her own journey through heartbreak and extended singledom, Dr Lishman offers evidence-based tools for:
* Distinguishing between being alone and being lonely
* Healing from heartbreak and building lasting emotional resilience
* Creating a fulfilling life independent of romantic partnership
* Developing the inner strength to choose future relationships more wisely
Copies of her newest book Only You: The Unexpected Gift of Being Alone will be available for purchase on the night.
