Book Review

Breaking the Hold on “Good Girl” Conditioning

At seventy-five, Dobbs' defining moment sparked her inner badass when she accidentally read a text sent to her contractor by a colleague, which minimized her core identity. ‘She’s an Old White Woman’


Coincidentally, she was packing for a 1,000-mile motorcycle trip through the Colorado Rockies. Instead of giving in to ‘good girl’ behavior, even a little, she started writing this book.


Millions of women apologize for their opinions, shrink to avoid conflict, and prioritize others’ needs — these are the results of good girl conditioning so deeply ingrained that we mistake it for our true selves.


Three Invisible Good Girl Holds

  • Approval addiction — seeking validation instead of staying true to your values
  • Sacrifice script — believing your needs should come last
  • Shrinking syndrome — becoming smaller, quieter, and unseen


By mastering The Art  of Being a Badass Woman, you will live authentically, speak your truth without apology, turn fear into motivation for bold actions, take risks, and create adventures. This is a rebellion manifesto disguised as a self-help book.


Mary Lou Dobbs  is a transformation coach and speaker. She was the number one insurance salesperson nationwide for Wells Fargo Bank for six consecutive years, and she is the only woman ever to win a national sales contest with Lincoln Financial. Dobbs helps women break free from good girl conditioning and discover their badass power.

She's an Old White Woman


Dobbs’ defining moment ignited her inner badass when her contractor showed her a text from a colleague: "Give this woman a fair quote she’s in my real estate investment group."


“She’s an Old White Woman”


Dobbs took her hurt feelings and Seventy-five-year-old ass to the bedroom, to pack for a four-day thousand mile motorcycle trip.


The following morning, she woke to the tune of Alicia Keys, “Girl on Fire”. Then she started to write. Her inspired battle cry.

Thought Field Therapy (TFT)


Mary Lou Dobbs shared in her book her wit, humor, and unique perspective on maintaining our health as we age. She showed us that good health and being pain-free don't come from just a pill. It comes from hard work and investigating all alternative options before making your health choices. You can transform your life by healing from emotional or physical pain and becoming pain-free. She shared some of the natural healing modalities, such as TFT (thought field therapy) and the Emotion Code. These therapies help you maintain your emotional and physical well being.
