Re-release Episode 160: How To Make A Loneliness Game Plan

Episode Description: Loneliness doesn’t always show up with warning signs. Sometimes it’s loud. Other times, it’s that quiet urge to fill an online cart you don’t need, or the weird heaviness of a free weekend with nothing on the calendar.  In this solo episode of The Drama-Free Healthy Living Podcast, let’s talk about the very human experience of feeling disconnected—and what to actually do about it. I’ll walk you through my go-to “Loneliness Game Plan,” a set of simple, practical steps to help you manage those tough moments without spiraling into habits that leave you feeling worse. No judgment, just tools that work when you’re not feeling like your best self. This is about supporting yourself—on the days you need it most.   Key Takeaways: Why loneliness can hit anyone—regardless of personality or relationship status Recognizing your personal triggers (and how they sneak up on you) Healthy vs. not-so-helpful coping mechanisms—and how to tell the difference How to build a “Loneliness Game Plan” tailored to your real life What it means to show up for yourself with care, not criticism There’s no perfect system for handling hard emotions—but having a plan helps. A walk, a call, a small routine, even blasting music while scrubbing the bathroom—those little acts are more powerful than they seem. Loneliness may be part of life, but it doesn’t have to define your day. Keep your list nearby, stay curious about what you need, and remember: feeling off doesn’t mean you’re off track.
