Thrive Solo
Let’s be real — being single and child-free? It’s pretty damn awesome. Don’t believe me? Stick around. I promise you, by listening to this podcast, you’re going to start seeing your solo life in a whole new light — one that feels empowering, exciting, and full of possibility.
I’m Lucy Meggeson, and I’m here to help you stop seeing singlehood as a consolation prize and start embracing it as the incredible opportunity that it is. Because the truth? Being single isn’t second best. It’s not a waiting room. And it sure as hell isn’t a life of lack. In fact, when you lean into it, it can be just as fulfilling—if not more so—than being coupled up with kids.
And besides, no matter what our relationship status, what we all really want is to feel good in the here and now. So instead of focusing on what’s ‘missing,’ let’s focus on what’s possible. The freedom. The adventure. The extra time and headspace to create a life that’s truly our own.
Because here’s the thing: you are so much more powerful than you realise. Your thoughts shape your reality. And when you shift your mindset, you shift your life. My mission isn’t just to help you feel better about being single—it’s to help you recognise your own agency. To help you see that you are the creator of your own experience. And that you, and you alone, get to decide what your life looks like.
So join me here every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and let’s build lives that feel joyful, meaningful, and wildly fulfilling — on our own terms.
Let’s Thrive Solo…together.

The One Where I Talk To Attachment Specialist & Coach, Sami Reed Cleaver
My guest on this week’s episode is the completely gorgeous Sami Reed Cleaver.
Sami is a certified relationship and self-love coach who specialises in healing anxious attachment and codependency by helping her clients to reprogram their fear-based beliefs, and to connect more deeply with themselves. She helps people heal anxious attachment patterns, and develop self-acceptance, confidence, and self-trust, so they can achieve emotional freedom and inner peace.
She is originally from Wales, but lives in Thailand, and is currently single and childfree.
Topics that we cover are:
- Sami’s life in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and how much she loves it;
- being the love and light in our own lives, and what that means to Sami;
- what attachment is, and the different styles of attachment;
- how much our parents and childhood impact our attachment style;
- the difference between anxious and avoidant attachment;
- what it means to be fearful-avoidant;
- codependency, what it is, and what it looks like in a relationship;
- how and why we always go for people who make us feel familiar, ‘safe’ emotions, even if they’re bad news;
- how important it is for us to listen to our intuition;
- why we need to make rejection and abandonment feel safe;
- expanding our tolerance of negative emotions;
- Sami’s previous feelings of unworthiness and how they affected her relationships;
- how she used cooking for herself as a way of building up her self worth;
- how important it is to find your tribe, whether online or in person;
- why we need to embody the higher version of ourselves, even if it feels silly;
- choosing ourselves, instead of waiting to be chosen;
- boundaries, and why we struggle with them.
