In this powerful episode of The Diet Riot, Camilla dives into the first of the three pillars keeping women stuck in diet culture and emotional eating.
Learn about The Good Girl Syndrome and the Patriarchy’s trap.
Discover how societal conditioning from a young age shapes women into people-pleasers, disconnected from their own needs, desires, and bodies. It’s time to break free from the patriarchy’s expectations and reclaim your authentic self.
Key Takeaways:
- The Good Girl Syndrome: From a young age, women are conditioned to be "good girls"—nice, obedient, and high-achieving. This conditioning is rooted in the desire for acceptance, love, and safety within the patriarchal system.
- Many women are so disconnected from their bodies that they can’t even recognize hunger or fullness cues. This disconnection stems from years of self-objectification and constant self-monitoring.
- The patriarchy conditions women to view themselves through the lens of others’ expectations, leading to a loss of personal perspective and authenticity. This robs women of their happiness, presence, and quality of life.
