And She Spoke Break the Good Girl Myth + Unleash Your Power With Majo Molfino
For thousands of years, women have been taught to be good above all else.
You know... follow the rules, trust our logic over intuition, keep the peace, make everyone else happy, and sacrifice ourselves to achieve our goals.
Whew... glad those days are over... oh wait...they’re not.
Being the ‘good girl’ holds us back from our true potential. It keeps us from being POWERFUL.
On today’s episode of “And She Spoke” we get to the root of what’s really holding us back with the 5 good girl myths women believe and live by every day from Majo Molfino.
- You have to follow the Rules
- Strive for Perfection
- Trust Logic over intuition
- Maintain the Harmony
- Sacrifice yourself for others
By examining the ways in which your beliefs and behaviors drive your life and cause you to self-sabotage, you open up space to create better habits.
Whether it’s fear of taking time and energy away from our spouse or kids, concern over everyone else’s contentment, or any other conditioned belief -- it takes a concerted effort to break free from those thought patterns.
And every time you choose yourself first, you reinforce your worth.
Let’s ditch ‘good’ and embrace ‘powerful’ because the world needs our voices now more than ever!
Here’s a peek at what else we discuss:
- Why you’re still trying to prove yourself and fit in
- Deconditioning prototypical good girl behaviors
- How girlhood affects us as leaders, contributors and entrepreneurs
- Learning to redefine our understanding about patriarchy
- Making conscious sacrifices for our goals
- Designing the life you want
