Once upon a time, I was a very, very good girl. I knew how to read other people, so I knew what people expected of me: be polite, be cute, be sweet. Be quieter, be more approved of. So I used my ability to know when to keep quiet, when to make those other people feel better, and I knew - as all women do - that I was expected to measure my worth by others' yardsticks rather than my own.
But I loved its opposite: everything that requires self-expression: speaking, writing, reading, acting - everything in direct contrast to "sit down, be quiet, and be a good girl". Piece by piece, I started to discover what creates greater freedom, and how to communicate it to others. Sociolinguistic study in grad school led to a life-long fascination with power in language . Studying and becoming a professional actor and singer took me into a deep understanding of emotion and how it connects and shifts with a change in personality, person and power. |
This video expresses all of the sentiments that make The Goodbye Good Girl Project imperative to undertake.
I only wish I had been the one to write it. |

Do you like the idea of breaking those social "should's" that have held you back for too long? Do you like the idea of successfully changing your modes of communication, your business structures, your self-image, and to your quality of life?
