About this listen
We’ve all heard them—those well-meaning comments meant to “encourage” singles: “Don’t worry, I knew someone who got married at 62!” or “Just enjoy this season and work on yourself.” In this episode of The Route 77 Podcast, Natasha and Monique get real about the emotional impact of these platitudes, why they often do more harm than good, and how we can respond with honesty and grace. From personal stories to biblical reflections, we unpack how to reframe longing, redirect focus, and gently challenge the cultural narratives around singleness. Whether you're single or know someone who is, this conversation is a must-listen.
