Solo

Building a Remarkable Life of Your Own

By: Peter McGraw

Narrated by: Peter McGraw, Allyson Ryan, Jonathan Todd Ross

Join the movement that celebrates single living with Peter McGraw's groundbreaking book, Solo.

Amid the complexities of modern relationships, loneliness epidemics, and online dating burnout, there's a refreshing alternative: going Solo. "Solos," as coined by behavioral economist Peter McGraw, are people who choose to lead their lives authentically, purposefully, and passionately outside the confines of traditional relationship labels.

In a world built for two, Solos break the rules and hold space for every type of individual—single and not. Meet the thriving "Just Mays," who welcome romance if it comes their way, the determined "No Ways," who prefer life unpartnered, and the bold "New Ways," who redefine and redesign what relationships even mean.

Which one are you?

In contrast with the "Someday" singles who hang personal fulfillment on the success of a "serious" long-term relationship, McGraw reveals the secrets of happiness that Solos have already unlocked, offering listeners a roadmap to reinventing sex, dating, romance, and beyond.

Backed by scientific insights and McGraw's experience as a lifelong bachelor, Solo offers a blueprint for cultivating fulfilling relationships and creating a rich remarkable life. Solo is your invitation to pursue a life uniquely your own.

Great Intro to Soloism

It introduced the basic concepts well and created a foundation for further exploration. I invite the author to consider writing a follow up book with more details about beneficial and detrimental policies for single people and how to effectively influence improved policies for the population.

Embracing Solo-Life

This book was a good reminder of how life is what you make of it and in this case, it highlights the many perks of living a solo life

The live your (solo or other) best life guide book

A broad perspective on alternatives to marriage, 2.5 kids and the house with a picket fence while also celebrating it. An excellent read in diversity by offering representation for all family styles. Solos matter. I’m glad that Dr. McGraw was born and his quest for a meaningful life helps mine and many other’s lives more meaningful.

An assortment of mostly not useful information

There were chapters that were completely un interesting to me…and others that had a lot of mostly obvious information. Maybe 10 percent of the information shared was interesting to me. Most of the advice felt obvious to me, like stuff that most people over 30 would know.. and a lot of other superfluous stuff that I just wasn’t interested in.

not what I expected

I was expecting something written for the male perspective of being solo and living a best life. but the large part of this was celebrating women and their solo path. while there were some insights and shared experiences, I was really wanting something focused on being male and living solo. kinda disappointed
