Hello!

Welcome to "Breaking the Good Girl Code: How Women Can Stop Self-Sabotaging and Start Leading."

 

Breaking the Good Girl Code isn’t just another newsletter — it’s a revolution. 

If you’re tired of playing small, over-apologizing, and putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own, this is for you. 

We’re diving deep into the hidden patterns of self-sabotage that hold women back, unraveling the myths that keep us stuck, and charting a bold new path toward authentic leadership.

It’s time to rewrite the rules — on your own terms.

Ready to step into your power? Let’s go!

🚀 You Are the CEO of Your Own Life

I remember the day it hit me.

That jolt of realization.

I was stuck.

Stuck in a job that drained my spirit. Stuck in a pattern of saying 'yes' to everyone but myself. Stuck waiting for a sign, a push, a lifeline.

Then it dawned on me: Why wait?

I already had the power to CHANGE everything.

That's the day I became the CEO of my life.

You see, leadership isn't just for the boardroom.

It's for the living room, the kitchen, your own mind.

STRATEGY #1: OWN YOUR DECISIONS

You decide the direction.

Your choices define your path.

Stop waiting for permission to live your life with intention.

STRATEGY #2: SAY NO WITH CONFIDENCE

The most powerful word? NO.

It's a boundary. It's self-respect.

Saying 'no' to what's unaligned frees up space for what truly matters.

STRATEGY #3: DESIGN YOUR VISION

Picture it. Feel it. Live it.

Craft a vision board. Write it down. Make it real.

Your life should be a masterpiece of your own design.

So, where do YOU need to step up as the leader of your life?

Reflect. Plan. Act.

The CHANGE starts now.

🧠 Coaching Corner:

THE POWER OF SELF-LEADERSHIP

Let's talk SELF-LEADERSHIP.
Why?
Because it's YOUR secret weapon.

Self-leadership is about taking the wheel. 
It’s about making decisions that resonate with your truth.
Your values.
Your AUTHENTIC self.

No more waiting for permission.
No more following someone else's road map.
It's time to create your own path.
Because YOU are the leader of your life.

Here's a technique I love: VISIONING.

Picture your ideal life.
In vivid color.
Where are you?
Who are you with?
What are you doing?
And most importantly, WHO are you becoming?

This isn’t daydreaming.
It’s STRATEGIC.
It’s a blueprint for the future you’re building.

Now, let’s take action.
I want you to try this:

Each morning, take FIVE minutes.
Visualize your day as its leader.
How will you show up?
What decisive actions will you take?
Write them down.

This small practice?
It builds the habit of leadership.

Leadership that EMPOWERS.
Leadership that INSPIRES.
Leadership that TRANSFORMS.

So, are you ready to lead?
Because the world is ready for you.

💪 Breaking Barriers:

Transform Self-Sabotage into Self-Mastery

SELF-SABOTAGE.
We’ve all been there.
It’s that little voice whispering, “You’re not ready,” or “What if you fail?”

Why do we do this?
It’s fear.
Fear of success.
Fear of failure.
Fear of change.

These fears fuel behaviors like procrastination, perfectionism, and self-doubt.
But here’s the TRUTH: these behaviors are nothing more than barriers.

Barriers we can BREAK!

So, HOW do we transform these patterns?
Start small.
Identify ONE behavior holding you back.
Confront it.
Challenge it.

Replace “I can’t” with “What can I do today?”
Turn “I’m not good enough” into “I’m learning and growing.”

Rinse. Repeat.

YOUR journey is waiting.
Break. Your. Barriers.
Step into your MASTERY.

 

Let’s go!

🌟 Spotlight: Leader in Action

Meet Sophia.

A fearless, trailblazing woman who transformed her life — and the lives of those around her — by embracing leadership in a way that was fiercely her own. 

A few years ago, Sophia found herself standing at a crossroads.

Stuck in a job that drained her and surrounded by people who didn't see her potential. The weight of expectation was heavy.

She felt like she was drowning in it.

Then, one day, she decided: Enough.

No more playing small.

No more hiding her light.

Sophia faced a mountain of challenges, starting with the negative voices that echoed in her mind. Those pesky whispers of self-doubt and fear — familiar foes to many of us.

But she decided to confront them head-on.

Together, we began her journey of self-discovery, leaning into the discomfort and unearthing her true passion.

Sophia didn't just overcome.

She thrived.

Today, she runs her own design company. Her story a testament to the power of self-leadership and resilience.

But why stop with Sophia's story?

I want to hear YOUR stories.

Do you know someone breaking barriers and leading with courage?

Or maybe it's YOU.

Share your tale or nominate a phenomenal woman you admire. Let's amplify these voices and shine a light on the incredible leadership happening in our own backyards.

Together, let's rewrite the narrative.

Let's lead. 🌟
