Why Do I Love This Way?! Understanding Your Attachment Style & Building Secure Relationships :)

Were You Raised to Always Be Nice? The Truth About the ‘Good Girl’ Pattern

Were you raised to always be nice, agreeable, and never rock the boat? Many Millennial women were taught to be the “good girl” — polite, selfless, and perfect on the outside, all while secretly struggling with people pleasing, lack of boundaries, and self-doubt on the inside. Hi there, I'm Alex, your host, and in this first episode of All Good Girls Here, a podcast for Millennial women unlearning good girl patterns, I share how growing up with “good girl” conditioning affects everything from your dating life to your friendships to your self-worth and self-esteem. I unpack a little of my own story of being raised in Perú, moving to the U.S. as an immigrant, and how my upbringing subconsciously determined the kind of relationships I had as an adult. My goal with this podcast is to create a community for all the Millennial good girls out there. This is a space for you. 💌 🔔Today you’ll get: 💭 what the “good girl” pattern is 💭 understanding why you are this way is the first step to healing 💭 how self-love, boundaries, and curiosity can help you rewrite your story. ⭐️ This podcast is for every Millennial woman who’s curious about understanding herself better, unlearning patterns that don't serve us, and building real, authentic relationships with herself and with others. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — Welcome to All Good Girls Here 00:45 — Who is this podcast for 01:11 — Defining the “good girl” pattern 01:55 — The first steps of healing 02:28 — Who I am + why I started this journey 02:38 — Career-first mindset in my 20s → shifting priorities in my 30s 03:19 — The unraveling: hyper-independence, fear of failure, avoiding vulnerability 03:52 — Growing up in Peru → moving to the U.S. 04:12 — Resilience lessons from my mom as a single mother 05:00 — How “good girl” patterns showed up in dating, friendships & self-worth 05:09 — Why understanding why we are this way is crucial for healing 05:47 — Sneak peek: next episode on hyper-independence 👯‍♀️ Join the GG's (good girls) Community: 💌 Newsletter: allgoodgirlshere.substack.com [https://allgoodgirlshere.substack.com/] 📸 Instagram: @chiefoflovemedia [https://www.instagram.com/chiefoflovemedia] 🤳🏽 TikTok: @chiefoflovemedia [https://www.tiktok.com/@chiefoflovemedia] 🙋🏽‍♀️ Let's connect 📸 Instagram: @alexxandracheca [https://www.instagram.com/alexxandracheca] 🤳🏽 TikTok: @missalexxandracheca [https://www.tiktok.com/@missalexxandracheca] 🤝 Collaborations & partnerships: hello@chiefoflovemedia.com [hello@chiefoflovemedia.com] 📫 Therapists, coaches, or creators covering Millennial women (friendships, relationships, self-esteem, etc.), we’d love to collaborate: hello@chiefoflovemedia.com [hello@chiefoflovemedia.com] ⭐️ Please rate, review, and subscribe to help our community grow.
