""A must-read for any woman who is ready to design a life on her own terms.” – Sophia Amoruso, Founder and CEO, Girlboss

Women: it’s time to break the good girl myths that are holding you back and share your true gifts with this groundbreaking book from Stanford University-trained designer and women’s leadership expert Majo Molfino.

For thousands of years, women have been taught to be “good” instead of powerful. But when we embody the good girl, we hold back their voices and gifts in a world that desperately needs female perspectives.

Drawing on countless coaching sessions and conversations with female leaders, Majo identifies five self-sabotaging tendencies (“the five Good Girl Myths”) every woman must overcome to unleash her power and design a more purposeful life:

1. The Myth of Rules
   
2. The Myth of Perfection
   
3. The Myth of Logic
   
4. The Myth of Harmony
   
5. The Myth of Sacrifice

While there are many women’s leadership books, Majo uses her knowledge and training in design thinking (which is used by the world’s most innovative people and companies) to help you build creative confidence and break free from these disempowering myths once and for all.

Discover how each myth negatively affects your relationships, career, and well-being and identify your primary good girl myth – the blindspot that’s zapping most of your power as a creative badass.

If you’re a woman who can’t seem to get your voice or ideas out into the world, Break the Good Girl Myth will finally help you understand why and light the way out so you can become the woman you’re meant to be.

Your time – our time – is now.

For empaths and women wanting to grow and live a better life

I loved this audiobook and am recommending it to my daughters, nieces, sister and friends. I liked the many take aways and how it relates to everyday life in work and relationships. Really glad I stumbled upon this book!

Mindblowing and real- every woman needs to read this book!

If I could give this 10 stars I would. This book broke down the barriers to living my life freely that I either didn't know were there, or had an inkling of but thought I was the only one experiencing them. The research and heart in this work was so needed and the delivery came at just the right time. I feel like I'm finally breaking down and out of patterns that have plagued me my entire life. THANK YOU for sharing this work!

I thoughts most of it was helpful.

There were a few things I didn't particularly care for, some things got much too far into new age practices, definitely not my thing. On the other hand, I think something that's very important for any "good girl" is putting your beliefs and experiences into context. That is the strength of this book. You're not alone. You're not weird. You're not too much. You're not the only one.
