Letting go of the “good girl” persona. Growing up I was the “good girl.” Compliant, quiet. Volunteered for everything. Started babysitting at 8 years old. Had too much responsibility placed on my little shoulders too soon. That turned me into living a life of people pleasing. And let me tell you (but I’m sure you know this) people pleasing is soul sucking. It took me until my 30s to set boundaries. I started with the people closest to me and most times I felt like a bitch… I had to say NO I won’t give you money, NO I won’t babysit your kids, NO you can’t come over. No. No.No. Each NO got easier. A lot of healing took place and me saying NO helped remove a lot of codependency in our family. Setting boundaries took years but it was worth it. And this is a reminder to you - you can be a good person, you can be a kind person and you can still say NO. #selfcaresunday #selfcarematters #mindsetcreator
