My guest in this episode, Morrene Hauser, spent decades repressing traumatic memories from her childhood. When she finally cracked open that vault, her life all but fell apart. Morrene speaks with raw honesty about surviving a childhood marked by relentless abuse at the hands of her mother and stepfathers. Morrene is driven by a fierce desire to help others by telling her painful but inspiring story. We talk about her upcoming memoir, The Good Girl, and how writing has become both a lifeline and a form of catharsis. Morrene also shares how horses played a powerful role in her healing. This conversation is about survival, reclaiming your own narrative, naming the wounds, and finding a way forward.This is Morrene Hauser's story.Links related to this episode:Morrene J.

In this deeply personal episode, we explore one of midlife's most powerful transformations: letting go of the woman you thought you had to be to become the woman you actually are. We're talking about the personas we've worn for protection—the Good Girl, the Over-Achiever, the Caretaker, the Chameleon, and the "Always Fine" Woman. Then we dive into the signs that these masks no longer fit, examine the real fears behind our performances, and explore practical strategies for living authentically. This episode offers both permission and practical tools to stop pretending and start being real. Perfect for any midlife woman who's tired of performing and ready to come home to herself.Send a Text Message :)

Welcome to a brand new episode of the You Can Call Me “Bossy" podcast. Today, I sit down with my friend and fellow self-proclaimed data and marketing nerd Emily Kim. Emily is a business strategist and coach for photographers and creative entrepreneurs, and she brings her unique perspective as a former software engineer turned brand photographer. In this conversation, Emily shares her journey from navigating the cutthroat world of tech—where being “bossy” and “too much” were often labels used to diminish her—to carving out her own path as an entrepreneur and educator. Emily gets real about the frustrations of corporate bureaucracy, the internal challenges of “too muchness,” and the process of reconnecting with her creativity and intuition. Emily also opens up about the messy middle of evolving your career, the pressure of timelines, learning to trust the process, and how she honed her unique voice as a leader in her industry—despite fear of judgment from others. Whether you're thinking about making a similar leap or just want a refreshing dose of real talk about entrepreneurship, creativity, and personal growth, you're going to love this thoughtful and honest episode. Key Takeaways: Alignment with the framework: shifting from “do to have” to “be to do to have” Not being tied to one specific self-help tool, but maintaining general self-awareness The importance of trying new things and giving habits/strategies enough time Key Timestamps [6:00] – Embracing 'Too Muchness [15:50] – Be, Then Do, For Success [26:47] – Overcoming Imposter Syndrome [36:03] – Challenging Traditional Success Norms [42:13] – "Consistent Journaling Benefits" Episode Quote "So then you have to go into this internal battle of shame almost, because you're like, I should be grateful for being here. Lots of other people want to be in this position. Like other people, this is their dream. Right. And here I like, who am I to say, oh, like I don't like it here.

Are you constantly smiling and nodding when you really want to scream "No!"? I've been there, too. That feeling of saying yes when your body and mind are begging you to decline is a symptom of something deeper – the good girl narrative that's been ingrained in us since childhood.The cost of living as a good girl is enormous.

But there is a way out, and in this week's episode, I share it with you. Tune in to learn how you can break free from this exhausting pattern and reclaim your joy, peace, and fulfillment.You can find the transcript, full show notes, and more information here: amandahess.ca/saying-no-without-guilt/ Interested in working with me?

You've probably heard her on Oprah, or maybe you've devoured her best-selling books like A Radical Awakening or The Conscious Parent—but nothing beats what we're unpacking today.We went all the way in on what it means to awaken as a woman, especially if you've been playing the “good girl” for too long. We unpack why women—especially those from immigrant, Asian, or traditional backgrounds—feel stuck in roles that shrink them. We talked about breaking the cycle of perfection, what it really means to sit with pain, and how to be a present parent without losing yourself in the process.So, if you've ever felt torn between being the “good girl” and living your wildest truth, or are in the middle of a reinvention season—this episode is calling your name. Pull up a seat, it's time to get brave!What you'll get out of this episode… The “good girl” archetype is a lie.Pain is not your enemy—it's the portal to your most awakened self.Conscious parenting isn't about perfection, it's about presence.You don't have to heal before becoming a parent—parenting is the journey of healing.It's okay if your awakening makes others uncomfortable.

Bonus Episode Meg Holloway is back in the studio for the Dare Round — and she's not holding back. From perfectionism to parenthood, this one cuts straight to the heart of why so many women stay stuck. Expect mic drops, a few uncomfortable truths, and a very specific dare that left Michelle sweating a bit…Being a “good girl” won't get you the life you really want. It might get you approval, gold stars, and polite applause — but freedom? Fulfilment? Hell no. That starts when you stop toeing the line and start asking the real question: What do I actually want?
This week on Startup to Storefront, we're joined by Leah Marcus and Yasaman Bakhtiar, the Gen-Z founders behind Good Girl Snacks—the cult-favorite pickle brand that's taking over your feed and shaking up the CPG space. In just one year, they went from quitting their post-grad corporate jobs to building Erewhon's #1 pickle, selling over 10,000 jars, landing in 50+ retailers, and closing a pre-seed round led by Collab Fund (think Olipop, Sweetgreen, Beyond Meat). All of this—with $0 spent on paid ads. On this week's episode, you'll learn: How they turned a viral obsession into a real business The power of building in public and radical transparency What it's really like bootstrapping year one How they disrupted the grocery aisle through social and community What's next: new flavors, national expansion, and scaling post-fundraise It's startup hustle meets Gen-Z social savvy—don't miss it.
If you feel stuck, uninspired, or like your content isn't landing the way it should—it's not because you need a new strategy. It's because you're still filtering yourself.You're holding back.You're making yourself “likable” instead of magnetic.You're stuck in Good Girl Conditioning—and it's keeping you from scaling with ease.In this episode, I'm breaking down:
Let's talk about something that's holding you back from confidence, that you may not even realise is sabotaging you: the ‘good girl' conditioning.If you were raised as a girl, you were probably praised for being polite, quiet, helpful, well-behaved and - cue eye roll - ‘pretty'. Well, I hate to break it to you, but that conditioning is killing your confidence as an adult!In this episode, I'll share:What good girl conditioning is and how to spot itWhere this conditioning comes from3 ways that the good girl conditioning is sabotaging your progress towards confidenceHow to overcome the conditioning so that you can become confident AF✋
Episode Summary:Were you raised to be a “good girl”? To be polite, agreeable, and put others' needs ahead of your own? If so, you're not alone. In this episode, we're unpacking the deep-rooted Good Girl conditioning many of us inherited and how it affects our ability to set boundaries, express needs, and feel truly seen.We'll explore:✅ How we were trained to be good girls—and why that meant suppressing our true selves.✅ The hidden costs of this conditioning: emotional suppression, dysregulation, resentment, and burnout.✅ The attachment and relational impact—when love feels conditional, kids learn to abandon their own needs to stay connected.✅ How to break the cycle for our kids by teaching boundaries, emotional regulation, and healthy relationships.✅ The power of worthiness and modeling self-advocacy so our children don't inherit the Good Girl curse.If you've ever struggled with asking for what you need, feeling too much or not enough, or constantly putting others first, this episode is for you. And if you're a mom raising daughters (or big-feeling sons), this conversation will help you parent in a way that fosters self-worth, emotional intelligence, and healthy boundaries.Ready to go deeper?If this episode hit home, you don't have to keep carrying this alone.

“I don't do naughty things, I'm a really good girl.” That is what Ruby Franke tells her husband Kevin in a recorded jail call. She's a really good girl - that almost killed 2 of their youngest children. She kept them locked away in her marriage counselor/“lovers” mansion basement - torturing them for months. Soon, all the evidence will come out - their abuse diaries, the alleged romantic relationship, and the grim detail that they were planning on buying a 500 acre property in the middle of nowhere to carry out more extreme abuse. But the question on many people's minds is - how was nobody else involved and how did nobody else know what was happening? Kevin Franke, Ruby's devoted husband, has become the center of conspiracy theories. With people wondering just how much he knew, just how much he's covering up now, and if he should be charged. Also, why did he try to sue his oldest daughter after his wife was arrested? What about the mysterious woman - Pam? Two Franke teenage girls were found deep cleaning her home the day of the arrests. How come she doesn't appear that shocked to find out what Ruby had been doing? Is it because she knew all along? And what will Ruby and Jodi do to each other in prison? Will they turn on each other to save themselves - or do they still believe everyone is working with the devil? Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com

Title: No Such Thing As Good or Bad Kids: Dr. Shefali on Conscious Parenting Description: Today, we're taking a trip into the archives to revisit a 2023 episode with renowned clinical psychologist and listener favorite, Dr. Shefali Tsabary, where we dove into the deeply-layered topic of conscious parenting. Those of us in the middle of life, still parenting kids at home, adjusting to parenting adult children who just launched out into the world. or in any season of the parenting journey, really, will find much to learn as we look back (and forward) at our parenting patterns. Highlights from this convo include: Defining conscious parenting and the three stages of the parenting map Debunking the notion that as parents we are supposed to create happy, perfect superhumans by following traditional parenting rules Dismissing the notion that there are good kids and bad kids—and how to avoid using these labels Revealing the five ego patterns that parents might not even realize inform their quest to raise amazing children The three reasons why children act out or misbehave and how you can learn not to shame them for it The results of over-parenting and how it shows up in your adult children How it's never too late to become a mindful parent Segments: Bless and Release: Avoiding difficult conversations Thought-provoking Quotes: The evolution of the planet depends on the evolution of the parent. – Dr. Shefali Everyone wants a new tomorrow. But what we don't realize is that a new future comes with an absolute willingness to disrupt the past. – Dr. Shefali There is no such thing as a good kid or a bad kid. So, what kind of kids are there? Just kids – just humans who are terribly flawed like we are, and terribly, but amazingly blissful like we are. They're just this unique combo and they defy labels. – Dr. Shefali Punishment, shaming, blaming is never sustainable. I cannot tell you how many times a day I tell parents, ‘Listen, you appear to get control in the moment, but long term, it's going to be unforgiving.' – Dr. Shefali How do we constantly show our presence [to our adult children]? Unequivocal cheerleading. ‘I'm thinking of you. I miss you. I'm remembering you. I adore you.' Let them know they are on your mind but not involved in their day-to-day. – Dr. Shefali When the ego crumbles, proportionately the heart expands, and you then are just this heart-centered being able to connect to the other people in a very attuned, compassionate, genuine way. And your children will feel it. – Dr. Shefali Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Conscious Parent by Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://amzn.to/4aNAPd8 The Parenting Map by Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://amzn.to/3EER148 Dr. Shefali's previous interview on For the Love:Releasing The Fantasy of “The Good Girl” with Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-35/releasing-the-fantasy-of-the-good-girl-with-dr-shefali-tsabary/ Guest's Links: Dr. Shefali's website - https://www.drshefali.com/ Dr. Shefali's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/DrShefali Dr. Shefali's TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's Podcast - https://www.drshefali.com/podcast/ Connect with Jen!
