As someone who has always been hurt by people i have fallen in love with, I have decided to stay single for my own mental well being but the idea of being alone in old age or when I am sick, scares me. I am hoping this podcast sheds light on how to deal with such situations, and gives me confidence to pursue the life i want

Did you consider that you might've chosen the wrong men to date? Surely you do have a father, grandpa or uncle whose character you like, so there must be some good men too, right?

Even if it might feel like that, I hope that you will have a bright and happy future ahead of you.

In my personal experience loneliness stems from the lack of purpose, not from the lack of social connections. Find your purpose, focus on yourself and meaningful connections will cross your path. Many people want to "fix" loneliness by finding social connections first (doing a lot of social activities, having a full agenda, posting on social media to validate their busy lives) which only makes them even lonelier since most of these connections aren't meaningful or do not align with their path. And it is a win-win situation, you work on your self-development and learn to live in solitude PLUS make meaningful connections in the process - VS have a lot of non-meaningful connections and also being stuck in life.

To deal with loneliness the best thing is to go out and meet new people. Focus more on others, like my parents or a man, or friends, and less on yourself. Regards from Argentina.

Love how she uses her platform for good ❤

I stumbled across one of your videos looking for a good rest day stretch and this video popped up! For almost three years I've been happily and intentionally single and uninterested in actively seeking relationships. There's a lot of pressure, socially, to be in a relationship and it feels wonderful to come across others who are happy without pursuing that in their lives. There can be times where loneliness is present, much like when relationships can get overbearing and stressful and managing it can be challenging. I appreciate the insight you unloaded here. Thank you, I look forward to catching future podcasts (and I'll be back for HIIT and rest day stretching)

An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day ❤

I always thought about people who has thousands followers and if they can feel lonely. Sp thank you that you shared this feeling as for me pretty famous person. I struggle a lot woth this feeling but to know that person like you can have this feeling maybe now too it makes me feel better. So thank you for this, for advice and for tips 😊😊😊 I wish us all feel that we are not alone.

I’ve seen your videos on Facebook and reels here and I recently subscribed and to see this video pop up right now when I’m struggling so deeply it’s a sign from God that I will be okay

Being Alone and Being Lonely are two completely separate things. Alone is being with yourself and you need to come to know and enjoy your own self. Loneliness is the feeling that no one understands or shares what you are experiencing.

It comes in the right time🥺 thanks Anna❤ You don't know how much I like to listen to your podcasts ❤❤❤

Anna you mean so much to me you make me the healthiest happy and best version of my self❤ I wouldn’t be anywhere as good as I am without your content.

Thank you so much for sharing this topic. It’s so hard to talk about being lonely because it makes you feel stupid sometimes. Not many people on social media share or talk about topic like this. It’s nice to hear someone else’s approach to it. The fact that you talked about so many aspects of it it was very nice hearing how you work on it.

Anna, I am so glad we crossed path even just online. I'm happy that finally there's another girl just like me, love to spend time alone, single, live alone and love to take self on a date. I know there's German adjective word ,,Einzelgaenger" and it's okay to be one. yet, I'm struggling that most people in my country can't relate, they have in mind that people shouldn't be alone in life and it's a shame for woman being single in mid 20's. I tried to explain that I'm fine being this way, it turned out they assumed there's something wrong with my life. So, I assume that I might not fit in this society, for living different way not the way most people do. Just watched your podcast, it motivated me to carry on living life the way I want it to be.

I'm so touched by your message and so happy we found each other in this vast online world! It sounds like you're embracing your "Einzelgänger" spirit beautifully, and there's so much strength in that.

Anna, I have been doing your workouts for 4 years. I think of you as my personal trainer. If it helps, you are making a big difference to the lives of many people, like me. I hope you know how loved you are.

Cleaning my house is a form of meditation for me. It puts me in a zen state. I also love doing things on my own and waking up at 5 in the morning. But people do need to connect with kindred spirits once in awhile.

I'm do happy and i wish i get a hi from the best ever person! You helped me get motivated, lose fat and i became a better person! Thank you do much Anna and hope you have s bright future!❤

I don't have any friends and I have depression...

Love this Anna. I’m 21, renting in my own place, not on social media. I love time in my own space, but sometimes get lonely. I’ve learned to choose my social time mindfully, so I can connect then come back to my own space without overwhelm of social or loneliness. Still figuring out the balance. But love doing solo trips and things.

Anna, you are such an inspiration and we have so much in common! I also wake up at 5 am every morning and start with journaling, then work out (most of the time to your workout videos ;))I love my solitude mornings. Thank you so much for this podcast and for all your tips ♥️ you are a rock star 😘😘

This podcast helps me so much with managing my stress and physical health. Thank you so much for this!

Thank you so much because i been filing so lonely, and i been thinking no one likes me, not even my friend's,but after watching this video i feel beter,so thank you again i love you so much

I can relate a lot. I feel lonely when I compare myself. Another reason is I'm quite ok being by myself and living with solitude but when I get false hope from a friend or loved one that they're here for me but in reality they're not actually, it makes me feel lonely and crave human presence. Otherwise I do pretty well being alone,and yes I do feel the solitude when I'm alone 🤍

Abused by family, heartbroken, needed that the most ❤

The Living in the NOW, just knowing I get out to Libraries ,museums ,walk by the ocean, then go read at the Community building at Asilomar and speak to people who come from all over the world to the Monterey Peninsula. And will call people that supported me in a community event and supported me in that activity.(even giving them personal thank you cards, like my mentor taught me). Thank you so much for the Solution.

This channel is a ray of hope for me who was hurt by ppl many times and don't want to make frnds anymore.

Anna, I love your honesty about loves and challenges in your life. I hope you are always happy because you make so many others feel so much better about themselves.

This really is the right time ❤😢😢 you don't know how much I need it thank you Anna❤❤ my dad died 😢 💔 last year and I still miss him very much and I have this feeling of abandonment and like there's no one I can talk to

I'm truly glad to hear my openness could offer some comfort. You're absolutely right, loneliness is a universal experience, and there's strength in recognizing we're not alone in feeling alone.

I used to walk to work before, in the morning, before 7am and I really liked that it was so quite. After a time, I started to recognized the people on the streets. I enjoyed seeing how the city wakes up

oh wow, I can see myself in all the things that you said. ❤ I send you all my love and I pray for you and everyone that needs it to be able in the future to find someone that will understand you, will love you and will make you feel at peace. have a great day

I have listened to your morning habits for wake up early that made me wake up early and take a morning walk ❤

You just gained a new subscriber ❤ I loved your content on fitness but this is a bonus! I totally agree with you about the part of social media & comparing myself to others so I stopped that a few years ago. Anyway I can relate, love this. Thx again!

hey anna! it's so helpful to listen to your podcasts in the difficult times. im only 16 year but i find it so useful in my current life. thank you from my heart💚🌿

You’re exactly where you need to be beloved. Thank you for your insight. This has helped me to reflect and be aware of the unnecessary struggle of loneliness. Loneliness is a perspective of negativity and not being empowered which is all a choice

I even don't realise I'm so lonely since I have moved to another city. Thank you, you open my eyes.

Thank you Anna, It’s really good to listen to, and so much helpful ❤ keep going 😊

Going for a walk ( for me, with my dog)is so nice way to meditate..

You are such a sweetheart, to share this part of your life and many are being blessed because of it❤

Loved it 💗…You are amazing and such an inspiration…Love the clarity in your thoughts and words !

Du bist so ein toller Mensch, danke dass Du uns Einblick in deine Gefühlswelt gibst❤ Ich konnte mich in so vielen Punkten wiederfinden:)

I'm new here on your channel and I'm so glad that i found it. The videos i saw until now, i just loved. I'm single for many years, too. And i can totally understand your podcast. Greetings from Bavaria.❤

This is amazingly honest and down to Earth. Highly appreciated ❤

I’m in my first year of high school and I’m just juggling so many things right now, my mental health, my physical health, my grades and on top of that, I don’t have any friends in my class, so I have no one to talk to. In that time I have, talking to no one, I think I really do experience loneliness, so thank you for helping me with that. 😊

Thank you. It means alot to me. I rather be on my own than be surrounded by people n feel alone. I do have a lot of hobbies and love fitness.

I am also dealing with being alone and feeling lonely, additionally starting to regret a lot of decisions because I got way too much time to deal with my feelings and thoughts. And I know that a friend of mine feels the exact same and I feel guilty for not being there for him but I just cannot go there every weekend. I am not responsible for his well-being, but for mine. I need to heal first and sort my life.

Thank you for these open-heart videos full of emotions and useful advice for people. I fully agree with you with the important difference between choosing to be alone and feel loneliny. I fully agree with you that having time for our own body and brain is impotant for balance and happiness And the n thank you again for your workouts. You do an amazing job gathering with you 5 millions people

In my 20s, loved dating, being single. Dinner, vacation alone, no problem, I still enjoyed. As I've gotten older and most everyone has gotten married, being alone becomes more noticeable and takes on more of a "for ever" feeling. It doesn't get easier. Good luck to everyone.

This episode really touched me.. thank you so much! Especially that you brought here the topic of lost our love ones. It’s a really painful part of life.. for me it is. Thank you again! I wait for your next episode! P.s.: Would you recommend some podcast what you use to listen regularly?

It’s crazy how many times I said „OMG its totally me right now!” While watching this video. Thank you Anna :)

Thank you for cheering me up to switch my lonely day into happy, powerful and good day❤

Thank you a lot, Anna! You are inspiring!

Thank you Anna for this amazing podcast ❤️...Lots of Love..

Dankeschön liebe Anna, für deinen Podcast mit einem sehr wichtigen Thema❤

I found your chanel when i was searching for a workout , did the workout and stayed for the podcast , loved it although i never listen podcasts .

This podcast was so so relatable and I think for me loneliness also mean living life without any goal or just procrastinating important work.

You're a ray of sunshine, keep up the good work ❤

It was soothing listening to this. I have lived in Germany and I know the pleasures of shopping at DM :). If I may add to what can make you lonely. Where your friends stop speaking to you. On one hand we yearn for relationships but our friends who have been in one for long at times envy our single independent lives. And as a result I have few friends who have just stopped speaking to me. As these were close and good people in my life, loosing them as friends made me feel lonely and took some time to recover and forget with no hard feelings because as I said, these were good friends.

I love you and I always exercise with you. You are my trainer. My body has changed and I have become more disciplined in exercising. You are wonderful and full of life.❤🎉

It really takes courage to talk about our problems outloud. Hope all the best for you.

It’s unfortunate to see that alot of people are alone. I never thought this would be an issue, but the reality is that it is. Even with the availability of social media platforms to help us connect, we just don’t.

I'll say this much: Your words have much more weight and impact on us because you're also single, just like many of us viewers. It just doesn't help anymore listening to only married couples who tell us to be happy being single because they don't have to deal with it anymore.

Thank you for this podcast ❤ Very inspiring

I’ve always been quite lonely even growing up. I had friends at school, but then if everyone had to pair up then I’d be the one left out. I never felt I fitted in and still don’t as a 50 something. I’m still in an abusive marriage - lonely despite not living on my own - and I suffer severe anxiety and panic disorder along with social and health anxiety, so I guess there’s no chance now for me to get out of this situation. I’m friendly, I am a good communicator despite my anxiety, im a good listener and I’m funny and yet I’m lonely 😔🤔 it makes no sense. I worry a lot about the negative impact on my health but not sure how to change it. Comparing to others makes me feel worse, but I guess that’s understandable. The positive thing is I have strength and resilience to just keep going. I also love doing your hiit cardio workouts on KZread and other channels which really does help with my anxiety and confidence 🙏🏻❤️
