In this episode, Lo Wentworth breaks down the Good Girl Complex and its five faces: the compliant good girl, the caregiver, the overachiever, the spiritual good girl, and the rebel good girl she keeps coming back to. She reframes the whole thing, arguing it was never a confidence problem or simple people-pleasing but a self-trust wound coupled with a worthiness and receiving wound. Along the way she gets into why the rebel good girl is still seeking permission by proving everyone wrong, what happens to eldest daughters when they diverge from the role the family assigned them, and how to read your own intuition as data instead of outsourcing your authority to a book, a card deck, or a chart. If you're in the liminal space between the woman you were and the one you're becoming, this one names exactly where you are.
