In this episode we welcome Caitlin Judd as our guest. Caitlin is an author, speaker, coach and one of Australia’s leading voices on women’s wellbeing, confidence and self-worth. Caitlin recently released the book Good Girl, Goodbye, which explores the hidden conditioning many women grow up with — the pressure to be agreeable, high-achieving, self-sacrificing and ‘good’ at the expense of their own needs, ambition and identity.

In this insightful interview, Caitlin discusses the systemic conditioning of women as 'good girls,' the impact of patriarchy, and how women can reclaim their self-worth through awareness and self-leadership. We dive into perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, performance-based self-worth, and what it actually looks like for women to stop proving themselves and start trusting themselves.
