Not A
Good Woman

A yearlong study and challenge of how racialized
patriarchy constrains, restrains, and harms women.Enrollment Closed

Beginning June 2026
Sliding Scale To Join Beginning at $75/monthFrom the time we are girls, we are slowly shaped into what society calls a good woman.A woman who is respectable, self-sacrificing, morally disciplined, and oriented toward the needs and comfort of others. Over time, these expectations begin to feel natural, as if they are simply part of who we are, rather than the result of a long process of socialization.But the good woman is not natural. She is a carefully produced role, shaped through centuries of racialized patriarchy that teaches women who we are allowed to be, what parts of ourselves must be restrained, and what forms of power, anger, sexuality, ambition, or refusal must be suppressed in order to remain acceptable.In this sense, the good woman is not simply a cultural ideal. She is a patriarchal woman, a woman who has been trained to internalize and uphold the rules of the system that constrains her. Interrogating this role is not a small personal exercise but a political necessity, because the idea of the good woman has long been used to discipline women into compliance, reward silence and self-sacrifice, and punish those who step outside the boundaries of what society deems respectable.Not A Good Woman is a study and collective inquiry into how this role is constructed, how it operates across race and social position, and why dismantling the idea of the good woman is essential if women are going to live with greater clarity, autonomy, and power.By the end of this study, I want women to hear the phrase good woman and recognize it for what it often is: not praise, but a disciplinary label used to keep women small, obedient, and contained.

A NOTE ON REFUNDS, RECIPROCITY, AND RESPONSIBILITYMost of the systems we live inside are built to consolidate power. They hold the leverage. They write the rules. They lock people in. They offer little to no room for humanity or change. I don’t want to replicate that.But I also can’t pretend I’m outside of it. This is my livelihood. This is my labor. This is how I support my family.When you say yes to my work, you are choosing to learn from a Black woman. A Black single mother. A sole provider. What I offer here is built from lived experience, intellectual rigor, emotional labor, and years of commitment. It is resourced in real time—by me.So I’ve done my best to build a refund and cancellation policy that reflects what I actually believe:That we are responsible to each other.
That showing up should be mutual.
That intention matters.
And that care does not mean over-functioning.

BEFORE YOU ENROLLPlease take a pause.
Look at the calendar.
Look at your finances.
Consider your energy.Ask yourself: Is this something I can say yes to...not just today, but over the course of this offering?I know life is unpredictable. You can’t map out every twist or turn, and I’m not asking you to. What I'm asking you to do is to make a thoughtful, grounded decision. Because when people say yes casually and exit quietly, it creates a ripple...on me, on the space, and on the collective container we’re building.This isn’t a gym membership. This isn’t a faceless brand or a mega corporation. This is relational work, and I want us to start that relationship in right alignment.

REFUND & CANCELLATION POLICY7-Day Grace Period
(Ends: Saturday, June 27th)
Everyone, whether paying in full or in monthly installments, has 7 days from the program start date to request a full refund. No questions asked.This grace period exists because I know we can’t always know what something will feel like until you step inside. That’s okay.After Grace Period - Within 30 Days
(Ends: Sunday, July 19th)If You Paid In Full:
You will be refunded the total you paid minus the equivalent of two monthly payments at the rate you enrolled in. (Example: If you paid in full $950, and withdraw within the 30-day window, you'll receive a refund of $760)If You’re On A Monthly Payment Plan:
I will stop all future payments, and you won’t be charged going forward.This ensures that, if you exit, you've paid for the time you participated - no more, no less - and it's fair to everyone, whether you paid in full or on a monthly basis.After 30 Days
(Monday, July 20th and Beyond)
No refunds are available, regardless of payment type, and future payments will not be stopped.

I won’t chase you down. I won’t threaten collection. But I ask you not to ghost. I ask you to be in right relationship with the decision you made when you signed up. I ask you to be responsible.This is the most honest policy I can offer:
-It gives everyone the same opportunity to know if the space is right for them
-Not rigid. Not punitive.
-It protects my ability to sustain this work and care for my family
-It keeps us in right relationshipIf we want to live and learn outside systems that extract and dominate, we have to show up differently. This is one way that I'm practicing that. Thank you for practicing it with me.

Because the truth is, you are not a good woman.You are a whole woman. You are a wise, complex, instinctive, powerful, and far too alive to be contained by the narrow expectations prescribed by these structures, woman.
