Break Free of Good Girl Brainwashing

As societal expectations and personal standards intertwine, women entrepreneurs may struggle to let go of perfectionism in their work life, impeding progress and innovation. In the pursuit of success, prioritizing modesty can not only create undue stress but also hinder timely decision-making and exploration of creative solutions. What strategies can driven women implement to balance their pursuit of excellence with the necessity for flexibility and growth in their entrepreneurial endeavors?

The Nasdaq Center is delighted to be joined by Lisa Carmen Wang, Founder and CEO of Bad Bitch Empire, for an uplifting discussion on how to break free from “Good Girl Brainwashing,” the mindset grounded in perfectionism, people-pleasing, and permission-asking which can so often hold back women entrepreneurs from achieving greater success. Drawing from the lessons she’s learned from her athletic success as an elite gymnast and her professional success in a male-dominated business world, Wang reveals the 10 guiding principles for women who want to take charge of their bodies, boundaries, and bank accounts.

Key Takeaways:

• How to break free of “Good Girl Brainwashing”: release perfectionism and embrace your power at work.
• The importance of investing in the future of female-led businesses to build unapologetic wealth and impact.
• How women can take charge of their bodies by letting go of shame, owning their unique voice, and never apologizing for taking up space.
• How to consistently say “NO” to toxic people, work, and environments that do not serve one’s higher self.
• How to effectively command worth so one can negotiate, earn, and raise the money they deserve.
