Doctor of Psychology & Mindset Coach Dr Marny Lishman Challenges the "Fix Your Single Status" narrative in this groundbreaking new book.
Only You: The Unexpected Gift of Being Alone offers evidence-based strategies for transforming solitude from something to fear into a powerful catalyst for personal growth.
In a world obsessed with finding "the one," therapist, mindset coach and media commentator Dr Marny Lishman is asking a radical question: What if the most transformative relationship you'll ever have is the one with yourself? Her new book, Only You: The Unexpected Gift of Being Alone, arrives at a critical moment. The World Health Organization declared loneliness a global public health priority in 2025, with approximately one in six people worldwide reporting feelings of loneliness. Yet Dr Lishman argues that society's rush to fix single status may be making things worse.
Dr Marny Lishman is a Doctor of Psychology, therapist, mindset coach, keynote speaker and regular media commentator on mental health topics. She appears on Today Extra, Sunrise and Nine News Perth and has been a columnist for Body + Soul and The Sunday Times. She is also the author of Burnout to Brilliant and Crisis to Contentment.
