Good Kids by Maggie Nick

Being the "good kid", the easy-to-parent child, the mature one, comes at a heavy cost: perfectionism, people-pleasing, fear of failure, and overachieving. But with the strategies in this book, you can heal and be wildly free, hopeful, and expressive without the pressure to hide your messy, human self.

Maggie Nick is a licensed clinical social worker, trauma therapist, parenting expert and Recovering Good Kid. She received her Masters in Social Work from Indiana University and her Bachelors in Psychology from Virginia Tech, and lives in Florida with her husband, two kids and beloved dogs.
Maggie created her rebellious online community Camp Lovable to help Recovering Good Kids stop feeling like they have to be perfect all the damn time and learn how to say no and set boundaries. Her work is a fierce mix of hope and hard truths, guiding you back home to yourself. She's on a mission to help the world break cycles for our kids, and for the parts of ourselves that were never allowed to be messy and imperfect.
