Being Single Needs A Rebrand | Eat, Pray, Author Elizabeth Gilbert Interview

[@egl3369]

After my abusive dad died, I slowly watched my mum get happier and happier. She is now like a kid again. Loving life. People ask her about dating and she says "why would I want to do that?"

[@karlee3095]

Been single for over a decade. I'm fortunate to be able to support myself bc I live on the US West coast--many people cannot afford housing here. Financial independence is crucial. But also psychological--independence. I benefit from being single because I have always wanted to be self reliant and have a calm environment.

[@taracmonroe]

I love being single too (stopped dating at 32)!!! Singles, celebrate each other! Love Liz. Thanks for this... new subscriber:)

Liz has always spoken directly to me and you ladies did a beautiful job with your questions. Thank you! ❤

As much as I adore the movie ‘Eat Pray Love’ I think the book is so much deeper and poignant. I’m 65 and twice divorced and like Liz I’m better/ happier etc on my own. I’ve been in a relationship with myself for the past 25 yrs one that will last my lifetime. I’m definitely a loner that’s for sure, I don’t need anyone to complete me as I’m whole on my own 🙏 Also I’m totally with her in regards to embracing my aging face and body. I’m no longer worried about how I look without makeup 🙌

I heard many of Liz's interviews but this one strikes home! Thank you!

[@msmichele-chooseJOY]

I really needed to hear this conversation today. Everything Liz said is a confirmation of everything that I'm living right now. I loved it.

Wonderful interview & podcast 😊

[@sebeckley]

The fear of aging is directly related to being attached to male validation and attraction.

[@egl3369]

Yep! I couldn't care less what they think anymore. It's so freeing

[@scilines]

Liz is so wise. I always have to listen to her more than once to let everything sink in. 😊

When I read the book EPL I thought, wow this woman has no idea what is going on inside her and is perpetuating the notion that happiness happens when the right (other) person is found and running away from ones pain will work. Clearly many others found the ideas in the book ones they too should follow. The societal structures create traumatized humans who then adapt by adopting the conditioned information in those structures and then try to hold onto lies as if they are truth. Its trauma inducing structures that produces trauma and then if a person is lucky (suffers enough) they realize these systems are based on a complex profound system of lies, often much later on in life. The "system" is huge, largely impenetrable and programs infants with fear and then controls them. When a person finds themselves and sees their programming for what it is, there is despair at that, but there is freedom too.

As someone with clinical depression for over 34 years Elizabeth Gilbert calling what I am experiencing is the result of ‘choosing to not live life or properly grieve’ could not be further from the truth. To Elizabeth Gilbert: Please don’t publicly comment on illnesses without credentials or qualifiers. The wave of ignorant comments people deal with when explaining depression is already a sewage of bs. Don’t use your platform to encourage misinformation.

[@ro2929]

Maybe the spirit of the dead girl was in the lawn chair and Liz saw it or felt it on a level. Forgive yourself Liz!

[@debsllewelyn230]
