Ep 23: Feminist Business & Redefining Success
With guest Clara Wilcox
In Episode 23 of the Good Girl Deprogramming podcast, Clara Wilcox, founder of The Balance Collective, shares her insights on feminist business, redefining success, and breaking free from "good girl conditioning."
A coach supporting parents with career transitions and confidence-building, Clara discusses her journey from corporate life to self-employment and how aligning her work with her values has been liberating.
She explores the exhaustion of societal expectations, the fawn response and burnout, and how self-employment can help deprogram ingrained beliefs. Clara also delves into running a feminist, anti-capitalist business, pricing based on equity and enjoyment, and the radical power of saying no. The conversation touches on neurodivergence, menstrual cycle tracking, and the illusion of work-life balance.
Ultimately, this episode challenges traditional career models and encourages listeners to create work that aligns with their needs, energy, and values, proving that success isn’t about "having it all" but choosing what truly matters.
