In this episode of The Feisty Heroine, I sit down with Dr. Yuthika Girme, Associate Professor of Psychology at Simon Fraser University and Director of the S.E.C.U.R.E. Lab (Singlehood Experiences and Complexities Underlying Relationships). We explore the increasing prevalence of singlehood globally, the societal pressures surrounding it, and the psychological impact of relationship pedestal beliefs.
Dr. Girme shares fascinating insights about the discrimination single individuals face, the importance of understanding singlehood’s social context, and how we can shift cultural narratives to embrace independence and self-love. From innovative living arrangements to building a stronger relationship with yourself, this conversation will leave you inspired and empowered.
🎙️ Key Topics:

Why singlehood is on the rise worldwide.
The harmful impact of societal pressures and cultural scripts.
Breaking the stigma around singlehood and redefining independence.
