Solo travel is trending and it's not just for singles! Having done my fair share of travels while in a relationship, I can tell you there are a lot of nuances to cover to ensure a fantastic trip and to maintain a healthy relationship. But spoiler alert: it's worth it! IMO solo travel offers you opportunities that will not have the same impact when you're traveling with a partner.

In this Dating Diaries episode, I'm going to share some loving words of wisdom as an experienced traveler and Mindset Coach on why you should book that solo trip even if you're in a relationship. Let's bust the myth that something must be wrong in your relationship if you want to travel solo and own your solo trip with confidence while respecting your relationship.
