If you grew up as a "good girl", you wasted so much energy on being sweet, understanding, and well-behaved. You never spoke out of turn. You took care of your parents. You did well in school, and everyone had high hopes for you.
But now, as an adult, you struggle with:
- Setting Boundaries: You don't say no even when you desperately want to.
- Being Too Hard on Yourself: You get upset when you can't do it perfectly on the first try.
- People-Pleasing: You put everyone else first, leaving you feeling drained and resentful.
- Fear of Judgment: You censor yourself because you're afraid of what others would think if they saw the "real you."
- Deep Loneliness: You never feel seen, because you're not able to be authentic with the people in your life.
If you relate, you're probably tired of being the good girl. More than anything, you crave true connection and the chance to be your messy, authentic self.
But after all this time trying to be good, it can feel impossible to break away. Where do you even start?
Well, you don't have to go through it alone. I'm figuring it out too, and I'm here to share my journey and help you uncover the true self that you buried. It's not too late to bring her back.
That's why I created the Good Girl's Guide to Getting Worse: an email series where you'll receive weekly-ish writing prompts, healing tidbits, and messy reflections to help you work through these struggles and reconnect with yourself.
