#30 - Francesca Specter - Falling in Love with Being Alone Extra Ordinary with James Wallis
-
- Education
Hello and welcome to extra ordinary with me James Wallis - the podcast that shines a light on ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
This week I speak to internationally published author Francesca Specter to talks me about Alonement - a word she invented and trademarked herself
Francesca, a self-confessed reformed ‘extreme extrovert’, coined the word ‘alonement’ after discovering there was no positive word in the English language to describe valuable, fulfilling time spent alone.
She has since gone on to feature everywhere from Sky News to BBC Woman’s Hour, partnered with leading publications such as Stylist Media Group, and spoken on behalf of organisations including the London Mayor’s Office, Women in Journalism and the Marmalade Trust, all about the importance of learning to be healthily alone.
It was an absolute honour to chat to Francesca and hope you leave with as many takeaways as it did for me.
Enjoy the show.
