"Nice Lady Syndrome", also known as \u201cGood Girl Syndrome" is a term that refers to a set of behaviors and attitudes often exhibited by women who feel the need to be overly polite and accommodating, even at the expense of their own needs and desires.

Other ways that this might show up in your life are in people-pleasing or perfectionist tendencies: needing to appear as a good friend, good wife, good daughter, good mother, a good employee, or boss. But when we have to fulfill all of these roles (for fear of being judged for not being good enough), what happens is that we prioritize other people\u2019s experience of us over authenticity, and what we want.

This thought process and behavior directly impact our health because when we\u2019re putting other people\u2019s wants before our own needs for fear of how we\u2019ll be perceived, our self-care becomes demoted among the many things that are on our to-do list.
