Good Girl

A woman isn’t allowed to do well unless she also does good, so I became a do-gooder for the world.
Glennon Doyle • Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living: THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
I believe that the ‘good girl programming’ which so many of us are in the process of unpicking could learn a lot from her audacious and unapologetic nature. What are YOU tired of apologizing for? Where, if anywhere, are you spending time trying to be ‘liked,’ to the detriment of your art, your power, and your magic?
Lisa Lister • Venus: A Sacred Path. A Feminine Frequency. A Sensual Love Affair with Life.
Like armor or a mask, the good girl archetype is a protective mechanism, a way to be that helps us feel safe and loved in the patriarchy but that is ultimately disempowering.
