One of the things that I am deeply committed to in all the work that I do with the women in my life is to help them to recognize and eventually release old patterns of self sacrifice and always putting others needs ahead of their own, otherwise known as being the Good Girl.
I’m actually so incredibly DONE with the Good Girl. What I really want instead is for us to claim our Vibrantly Powerful Woman self. I want us all to learn to feel good and unapologetic about being centered in ourselves, to respect and honor our own longings and desires and as I often tell my women students to practice being Needy, Greedy and Proud of it!!
This is a skill that needs to be learned and the skill really comes down to choosing yourself… again and again and again.
It takes a lot of courage to make that choice, because it flies against everything you have been taught by the dominant culture about what you need to do to guarantee safety and security and love.
But I know from direct experience that the greatest source of all good things lies in deeply knowing who we are, valuing who we are and allowing that self knowledge to be the North Star of our life. There is something inside of you that’s ready to be directed and guided by your heart and soul. That is more than willing to go against everyone else’s recommendations and advice around how you choose to live your life, and instead trust your own inner wisdom.
The art of choosing yourself is the ultimate life skill that will never lead you astray. In times of incredible change and unpredictability, it is THE most powerful life skill you could master.
