Tia Mowry didn’t let living the single life get her down in 2023! Instead, the actress says she embraced the “value of solitude.”
Taking to Instagram days before the year ends, Mowry explained what she learned by shifting her mindset. She started by “confessing” that she’s “never been alone until now.”
“For the longest time, I’ve found myself in the company of others, as my work and family commitments kept me constantly surrounded by people, and, not to mention, I have a twin. Alone time was a rare occurrence growing up. However, over the past year, I deliberately shifted my perspective and embraced moments of solitude,” Tia wrote.
Tia’s lengthy caption was attached to a video of her jokingly singing and dancing. She held what looked like a wine bottle in one hand and a filled glass in the other. She captioned the clip, “Me when no one is home.”
It’s been over a year since Tia Mowry filed for divorce from Cory Hardrict after 14 years of marriage and 22 years of romance. The marriage was reportedly dissolved amid what would’ve been their 15th anniversary this past April.
Their divorce docs reportedly listed “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their end. However, shortly after Tia filed in Oct. 2022, Hardrict denied cheating on her. The former pair now share joint custody of their two children, son Cree and daughter Cairo.
This month, Tia popped out at the Los Angeles movie premiere of ‘Wonka’ with her kiddos in tow. Then, on Christmas Day, Mowry shared a carousel post featuring holiday photos with Cree and Cairo. The post contrasts last year’s holiday re-cap when Tia and Cory spent the holidays together amid the divorce.
Over the past year, the actress has spoken openly about living in her truth and being “nervous and terrified” to date in her 40s. Most recently, in September, she shared words of encouragement for women struggling to leave a toxic relationship.
After shifting her mindset in 2023, Mowry said on Dec. 29 that being alone wasn’t “a punishment.”
“I realized that being alone wasn’t a punishment but rather an opportunity to recharge. Through conscious effort, I transformed these moments into a crucial aspect of maintaining my well-being. This shift allowed me to recognize the value of solitude in refreshing my mind and spirit.”
She added that her rejuvenation journey allows her to “fully be present” with her loved ones.
