Thriving Single: Mastering Your Single Season & Building A Full Life.
Thriving Single, a new transformative faith-based show, premiered on Monday, April 6 at 7:00 PM EST, bringing together a dynamic panel of voices to challenge cultural narratives around singleness, relationships, and marriage.
Produced by UniiQe Impact Productions, Thriving Single is more than a conversation; it’s a call to realignment. The show invites viewers into honest, scripture-rooted discussions that confront the emotional, spiritual, and practical realities of singleness in today’s world.
Meet the Panelists
The premiere episode features a powerful lineup of entrepreneurs, authors, and thought leaders: Staci-Ann Smiles — Entrepreneur, Author, and Owner of The Rib Perspective, Shae Palmer — Entrepreneur and Owner of The Well XP Collective, Mia Auxilly — Author and Influencer, and Rich Smiles — Entrepreneur and Owner of Two Become One Marriage Mentoring.
Together, they bring wisdom, transparency, and lived experience to a conversation many avoid—but desperately need.
A Message That Challenges the Culture
In a culture that often idolizes marriage and romantic fulfillment, Thriving Single boldly redirects the focus back to God, purpose, and personal development.
Panelists unpack real issues many singles face today, including:
– The danger of dating based on potential instead of character
– Why do many believers “spiritualize red flags” instead of addressing them
– The importance of healing, self-awareness, and preparation before marriage
– How singleness is not a waiting room—but a season of purpose and development
Panelist Mia Auxilly shares a deeply personal journey that inspired her book “God, Where’s My Husband?”—revealing that the true transformation came not from finding a partner, but from learning how to become a bride to Christ first.
Another powerful takeaway challenges a common mindset:
“Marriage is not the destination—purpose is. Marriage happens along the journey.”
A Needed Conversation for This Generation
Thriving Single addresses a critical gap in both the church and society: preparation. From the lack of intentional education around relationships to the influence of social media’s glamorized view of love, the show highlights why so many enter marriage unprepared—and how that can change.
The panel emphasizes that:
– Singleness is a gift and a season you won’t get back
– Healing cannot be outsourced to a future spouse
– Marriage requires wisdom, understanding, and intentional development—not just desire
As Shae of The Well XP Collective puts it, “You are not preparing for marriage, you are preparing to become whole.”
The debut episode, produced by parent company UniiQe Impact Productions, sets the tone for a series committed to truth, growth, and transformation. Whether single, dating, or preparing for marriage, viewers will walk away with clarity, conviction, and practical insight grounded in biblical principles.
