Are you recovering from being a “good girl”?

What's this all about?

I’m gently inviting a small group of women and non-binary folks to join me for the November session of something close to my heart — The Good Girl Recovery Circle.

It’s a creative, therapeutic space for those of us who were taught to be pleasing, perfect, helpful and kind — no matter the cost.

A space to explore who we were told to be… and who we might become, if we stopped making ourselves smaller and quieter.

This month’s theme is: Too Much and Not Enough

We’ll explore the contradictions many of us carry — being “too emotional”, “too sensitive”, “too loud”… and yet somehow never quite enough. A space to notice where those messages came from, and begin to reclaim the fullness of who we are.

This session includes:

✨ A creative reflection activity (no art skills needed!)

✨ Honest, optional sharing in a safe space

✨ Time to slow down, breathe, and come back to yourself
