The Good Girl Syndrome Is Destroying Indian Women

The Masoom Minawala Show

About

Self-love is something we hear about all the time — but very few of us actually understand what it looks like in real life.

In this episode of The Masoom Minawala Show, I sit down with Kavyal Sedhani, a hypnotherapist, for a clear, no-noise conversation on self-worth, boundaries, and a woman’s relationship with herself.

This isn’t about surface-level confidence, affirmations, or “just think positive.”
 It’s about understanding the patterns we’ve been living with — often unconsciously — and how they show up in our choices, our relationships, and our decisions.

From people-pleasing to undercharging, from guilt to financial insecurity, this episode breaks down what it really means to choose yourself.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What self-love actually looks like in everyday decisions

• Why high-achieving women still feel “not enough”

• How women abandon themselves without realising it

• Boundaries, guilt, and the pressure to be “nice”

• People-pleasing and its link to low self-worth

• Why women tolerate disrespect longer


This episode is for you if you are:

* Doing well on paper but still feel “not enough”
 • Struggling to set boundaries without guilt
 • Constantly people-pleasing or over-explaining
 • Earning but not feeling financially secure
 • Hesitant to ask for more — in money or relationships
 • Trying to build confidence but still feel stuck
 • Ready to understand and break deeper patterns


Self-worth isn’t built overnight.
 It’s shaped in the small choices you make every single day.

And the moment you start choosing yourself — everything begins to shift.
