How Being a “Good Girl” is Hazardous to Your Health: From a young age, we’re taught to be "good girls." We’re told to be polite, to be nice, not to interrupt, and to say thank you—even when we don't mean it. As little girls, we're best "seen, not heard" and told that if you question authority or speak your mind, then you're bossy, too loud, or even a bitch. And while we know this is all nonsense as adults, so many of us still hold onto these beliefs and habits, which cause us to remain silent at board meetings, apologize to the other person when they cut us off in the checkout line, and remain silent in the doctor's office when we know something is wrong. It's "good girl syndrome", and it can seriously affect our health and even our safety, as you'll learn in this episode! by On Health
