What if being single and childfree wasn’t a consolation prize—but a portal to deep peace, freedom, and joy?

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by the vibrant and wonderful Lucy Meggeson—host of the Thrive Solo podcast and author of the book by the same name (or Shiny Happy Singles if you're in the UK). Together, we explore the liberation, sovereignty, and delight that come from embracing a solo path.

Lucy opens up about the moment she realized that singlehood was not just her circumstance—it was her choice and her joy. We unpack the outdated societal narratives that equate coupledom with success and lovingly challenge the stigma around choosing solitude. From reclaiming the word “selfish” to transmuting sexual energy into creative power, this episode is a bold manifesto for living life on your own terms.

What we explore:

• Joyfully single is not an oxymoron—it’s a lifestyle, a choice, and a liberation.
• Reclaiming “selfish” as self-honoring and soul-serving.
• Solitude fosters emotional regulation, clarity, and inner peace.
• The myth of the “less than” single woman must be dismantled.
• Sex, or the lack thereof, can be a channel for profound creative expression.

In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m speaking directly to the part of you that’s dreaming of becoming a coach or levelling up—but holding back because you feel like an imposter. If you’ve ever wondered, “Who am I to do this?” or feared that you’re not ready, I want you to know: you’re not alone—and you're not wrong for caring.

Imposter syndrome isn’t a sign you’re unqualified. It’s a sign you care deeply about doing this work with integrity. And the truth is, confidence doesn’t come first—it comes from taking aligned action inside the right container of support. That’s what coach training provides: not just tools, but a transformation in how you see yourself.

What We Explore:

• Why imposter syndrome is actually a signal of your integrity
• The stories aspiring coaches tell themselves that hold them back
• Why waiting to feel ready will keep you stuck
• How training helps you trust yourself and your skills
• The ethical importance of building a solid foundation
• The shift from “aspiring coach” to “empowered coach”

Have you ever felt frozen on the edge of a big life decision—knowing it’s the right move but unable to leap? In this solo episode, I share how to work with fear instead of against it. Whether you're navigating a breakup, a career pivot, or the uncertainty of caregiving, I guide you through how to build a relationship with fear, use it as your compass, and honor your higher self in the process.

We unpack the myth that courage means fearlessness and reframe fear as a dance partner to transformation. You’ll hear tangible mindset shifts and practical tools to build emotional capacity and move forward—one brave step at a time.

If you're ready to stop waiting for the fear to disappear and start stepping into the life you're meant for, this episode is for you.

What we explore:

• Fear doesn’t go away—it’s something we walk with.
• Courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s moving forward with fear present.
• Fear is often a misguided protector, trying to shield you from pain or rejection.
• Creating a dialogue with fear transforms it from a roadblock to a guide.
• Action builds clarity, momentum, and confidence—fear loses power when you act.

Reflection prompts:

What’s one moment in your life when you felt fear and took action anyway?
What is your fear trying to protect you from?
What small, courageous step can you take today?
