I’ll walk you through the emotional and physical cost of pretending, how this pattern gets wired into our nervous system, and what it takes to come back home to yourself. It’s time to stop abandoning yourself to keep the peace.In this episode, I cover the following:1. How the “good girl” script teaches women to perform, please, and pretend.2.
