    Episode 11: It's Time to Drop the Good Girl Mask

    For decades, many of us have worn the Good Girl Mask. It’s that polished version of ourselves who makes sure everyone else is comfortable, follows the rules, and doesn’t rock the boat. On the outside, life looks fine. On the inside, it feels like part of ourselves has been lost. In this episode of Rewild by Design, I’m breaking down where this mask comes from, what it costs us, and how to finally start living without it. Through the lens of Human Design, we’ll look at how the mask shows up in types, centers, and profiles, and what it actually looks like to choose yourself instead of performing for approval. This episode is a powerful an invitation to stop hiding behind roles and start living from your real energy.
