Most pop culture discussion about the single life point at how to avoid it at all costs. From Disney movies to dating coaches to how-to books on finding love, we’re constantly told that couplehood is the holy grail. But many of us have grown more, changed for the better, and learned the most about ourselves while not in a relationship. So how can we get the most out of being single? What can we celebrate about aloneness? Why can’t singlehood be a great thing? Join Natalie Karneef and guests as they share real-life, personal stories about navigating the unattached life.

    The End (Episode 10)

    If we've learned anything this year, it's that life is precious. And while endings are tough, they're also a good reminder to make the most of the time we have.

And Natalie decides it's time to leave town, and has to break the news to Jack the Chef.
