This week, Nat is back this week for a solo episode to give us a big life update (cause it’s been a minute) as well as talk about, you guessed it, independence! From setting personal goals to solo travel, this episode is packed with encouraging thoughts on how you can develop (and maintain) your independent self. Nat shares that she’s really taken a liking to running lately and loves that it gets her outside, off her screen and doing something on her own that isn’t dependent on other people. She also shares info on a couple of upcoming trips she has planned to Europe, how excited she is to experience solo travel, and how it takes her out of her comfort zone in a really good way. She wraps up with 6 helpful tips on becoming more independent, from having your own hobbies distinct from your partner to setting simple routines during the day to keep you focused, reminding us to get out there and take some personal chances; you won’t regret it!
