Are you looking at the calendar and dreading the holiday social scene because you hate being minus a plus one at parties?

I get it.

But before you throw in the towel, hide under the covers, and mope until New Year’s, I’ve got a better idea…

Become your own arm candy!

You heard me.

Celebrate your fab single self so that when you walk into your next holiday party, you’re not announcing your breakup by suddenly being a minus plus one. Instead, you’re struting your stuff into that party like you own the room and are the most fabulous single woman there!

This may take some practice to cultivate if you are struggling with your self esteem these days.

Here are some practical tips to help you celebrate your fab single self :

– Get a new do’
– Get new makeup and a makeover
– Get a new wardrobe

Before each party, put on your fave fun girl music. Dance around the house. Put it on the car and rock out on your way to the party.

When you arrive, make your saucy entrance. Work the room. Laugh, have fun, and enjoy the party!

The goal here is not to make a love connection (although if that happens, great!). It’s to reconnect to your fabulous factor, heal your heart, and move on by New Years Eve.

For added support, pick up a copy of It’s A Breakup Not A Breakdown: Get over the big one and change your life – for good! and It’s a Breakup, Not a Breakdown Workbook: A 21-Day Action Plan to Plot Your Revenge, Spoil Yourself, and Find Out How Good Your Life Is Without Him and immerse yourself in your very own 21 day recovery program.
