Everything you need is right here: https://stan.store/starmonroe
If you've been stuck in the good girl or mother energy trap, it's time for a wake-up call. Ambitious midlife women with big dreams can't afford to play small or sacrifice their well-being for others. It's time to kick the good girl and mother energy to the curb and reclaim your power.
Good girls are trained to maintain the status quo, putting everyone else's needs before their own, leading to a life of unfulfilled potential and simmering resentment. Mother energy, while nurturing, can become a drain on your resources when it's all about fixing and saving everyone else but yourself. As iconic older women, we know that our energy is precious, and we must be selective about where we invest it.
Feeling guilty about prioritizing yourself? It's time to challenge that notion. Guilt is often based on outdated societal expectations that don't serve you. It's a mask for deeper emotions like shame and fear. Men don't hesitate to pursue their ambitions, and neither should you. It's time to redefine how you see yourself, shedding the good girl and mother energy and embracing your right to be fabulously selfish.
The journey to realizing your dreams starts with a shift in self-perception. You need to stop seeing yourself as the good girl or the martyr and start embracing your Main Character Energy. You're the star of your show, the A-lister of your life. You need to become obsessed with yourself and recognize that you are indeed the prize.
When you embrace this new identity, you'll notice a shift in how the world responds to you. You'll start to respect your time and energy, and others will follow suit. You'll attract better-caliber friends and partners, command attention without seeking it, and turn heads wherever you go. You'll no longer need external validation because you'll know, deep in your bones, that you are valuable.
