by Meghan Keane (Author), La Johnson (Illustrator)

A warm, witty, and affirming self-help guide to learning how to get to know and love yourself, becoming your own soulmate, and living a fulfilling life whether you partner or not, from the creator of NPR's Life Kit.

Meghan Keane spent most of her adult life without being in a serious, long-term relationship, and for much of that time, being single wasn't something she celebrated or particularly enjoyed. Sick of feeling anxious or sad when she received yet another wedding invitation without a plus one, she decided she was going to mindfully shift her perspective. Luckily, Meghan is the founder of NPR's self-improvement brand, Life Kit, so she consulted the experts, and what she learned changed her mindset--and her life.

Party of One is the self-help book Meghan wished she'd had from the start--a deeply researched, encouraging guide to bridging the gap between knowing that being single is awesome and feeling and embodying it. Inside, you'll find practical advice for strengthening your self-compassion and inner resilience, practices for stopping rumination cycles, scripts for dealing with nosy friends and relatives, thoughtful prompts to support you on your journey, and much more. With vibrant illustrations from artist LA Johnson and Meghan as your relatable guide, Party of One will help you learn to love your own company, regardless of your relationship status, and become your own best life partner.
