Synopsis

Roz Savage knows all about self-isolation. The most prolific female ocean rower in history, she has rowed – solo – across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, spending over five hundred days and nights alone at sea, often many hundreds of miles from the nearest human being. She offers her hard-won wisdom to all who are feeling lonely or afraid during times of solitude. Based on her own struggles and breakthroughs at sea, along with tales of other individuals who have sought out or researched the impacts of loneliness, this book gives simple, practical, often humorous coping strategies for dealing with fear, helplessness, disorientation and self-doubt. When you can’t change your circumstances, you have to change your perspective.With the right attitude, you can learn not only to survive aloneness, but to thrive in it. Solitude offers unparalleled opportunities for self-awareness, personal growth, and purpose-finding that will stand you in good stead, no matter what the future may hold.
