    The Cost of Being a “Good Girl”
    Jul 21 2025
    In today’s episode, Dominique sits down with award-winning researcher and best-selling author Dr. Chelle McQuaid, whose work dives deep into how women can break free from lifelong patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and silencing themselves to keep others comfortable.From early childhood conditioning to the cultural expectations still placed on women today, Dr. Chelle shares surprising insights from her global research, including the role estrogen plays in helping us shed the "good girl" persona and step into a more authentic, empowered self.In this episode, Dominique and Dr. Chelle discuss:How “good girl” conditioning begins in childhood and gets reinforced in adulthoodThe connection between menopause and breaking free from self-silencing behaviorsWhy women often struggle with setting boundaries and asking for what they needThe three biggest ways the “good girl” mindset shows up: perfectionism, people-pleasing, and emotional suppressionHow self-compassion, secure self-attachment, and self-leadership can change everythingWhy “not yet” can be the most powerful phrase for growthA calming somatic practice (the “butterfly hug”) to ground yourself in moments of fear or self-doubtFor more on Angela:Listen to her podcast, The Good Girl Gamechangers PodcastVisit her website: https://shop.thegoodgirlgamechangers.com/ Thanks to my Sponsors:Visit Carawayhome.com/flourishing or use code flourishing at checkout to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Use code DOMINIQUE at monarchmoney.com in your browser for half off your first year.
