Releasing the "GOOD GIRL" Mentality and Stepping into your Power
Manage episode 465003520 series 3272500
Have you ever felt like you’re living for everyone but yourself? Saying yes when you want to say no? Shrinking yourself to avoid judgment? If so, you’re not alone. The ‘good girl’ mentality is deeply ingrained in many of us, keeping us stuck in perfectionism, people-pleasing, and playing small.
In today’s solo episode, I’m breaking down 7 toxic ‘good girl’ beliefs that hold women back and showing you how to release them through shadow work, mindset shifts, and self-empowerment.
We’ll explore:
Why perfectionism is actually a form of self-sabotage
How people-pleasing stems from fear of rejection
The real reason setting boundaries feels so hard
Why you’ve been conditioned to stay small—and how to break free
A journal prompt for each belief to start shifting today
If you’re ready to step into your power, own your voice, and start living for YOU, this episode is a must-listen!
