Women and loneliness
Personal and workplace loneliness
Loneliness happens when your relationships aren’t giving you the closeness, understanding or mutual support you need to feel nourished.
For professional women, this can come from pressure to appear self-sufficient, unsupportive friendships, loneliness in leadership roles, shrinking social circles, life stage changes and shifts in how we work and socialise.
Loneliness is a normal human signal that your need for connection isn’t being met. It isn’t a sign that you’ve failed or that you’re not good with people. It’s simply your system telling you that something important is missing in your personal or professional connection.
Feelings of loneliness are not a personal failing
Loneliness isn’t a judgement about who you are. It shows that your need for closeness, understanding or belonging isn’t being met at the moment. Your system is signalling that something important needs attention.
Recognising this is a turning point. Once you understand what your loneliness is telling you, you can begin to create relationships that feel more genuine and supportive at a pace that works for you.
By understand your loneliness, you can explore your connection needs and learn how to build relationships that feel more nourishing and less draining.
