Still Single at 30

A memoir and a pep talk for anyone who has ever felt behind.

I wrote this to keep you company. To make you smile, breathe, and feel less alone.

What’s inside

Stories from the in between. The dinners where you’re the only single person. The hopeful swipes and the quiet Sundays. The funny parts we tell friends and the tender parts we keep to ourselves.

This is a hand on your shoulder. A reminder that your timing is yours and that life still blooms beautifully off script.

Hi, I’m Yasmin

I’m a 30 year old Canadian with Turkish and Greek roots. This is my first book. I wrote it while working full time, late nights and early mornings, because I wanted a place where we could talk honestly about being single at thirty and still at peace.

I’m not a business voice. I’m a person who loves Mediterranean food, walks with my dog Guguu, and real conversations. If you’ve ever felt out of step, I hope these pages feel like a quiet friend beside you.

Why I Started Inqedit

I wanted this book to live close to me, not inside a system that takes a cut and adds distance. I made my own little corner so I could share my story with people who see themselves in it and hear yours back, without a wall in the middle.

If you choose to read, you’re supporting me directly. It lets me keep writing the honest, human things that brought you here.

This book is for you if…

  • you’re done measuring your life against someone else’s clock
  • you’ve carried both hope and heaviness and want a softer place to set them down
  • you want comfort that feels real and words that make you breathe easier
  • you’re ready to feel seen and steady again
