The Liz Moody Podcast · New Research: Being A "Good Girl" Is Making You Sick (Really). Here's How + What To Do · 17 Jun 2026 podcast

I lived with someone who drank or used drugs.

I experienced unwanted sexual contact.

A parent in my home hit, beat, kicked, or hurt me.

I lived with someone who went to jail or prison.

I didn't have enough to eat.

I wanted to read them because that is what's happening in your environment.

That is happening outside of you.

What was very interesting to me was, which I learned, was that 80% of my group, of my thousand women that I talked to, 80% of them had at least one ace.

47% of those thousand women had four or more.

But I wanted to go a little bit deeper in my construct of the research because the list that we just went through, it's very physical.

But to me, those almost felt very big T trauma.

And I had lots of curiosity after speaking to so many women around me who also had autoimmune and who also were either the eldest or the only daughter.

So in my research, I tested the ACE list, which is the industry standard, which I felt would be the right thing to do.

But I also asked questions that I felt were specific to girlhood.

That to me felt like that's more of the story happening.

Maybe not more, but just as valuable.

And those were, you were raised to be the caretaker or shifted from being a little girl into mommy and daddy's helper.

You felt a connection between being good and being loved.

You had difficulty understanding and expressing your needs and wants.

These are very feminine behavior.
