<p><b>Stop trying to be "good." Start living freely.</b><br><br><i><b>THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER</b></i><br><br>'A stunning, big and bold encyclopaedia of how to live' <b>LISA TADDEO</b><br>'Astute, radical and utterly compelling' <b>KATHERINE MAY</b><br>'You will finish this book and immediately hand your copy to your best friend' <b>JENNIFER ANISTON</b><br><br>Why do so many women feel the need to be "good", even at their own expense?<br><br>Why do we apologise when we've done nothing wrong?<br>Struggle with people-pleasing and setting boundaries?<br>Put others first, even when it leads to burnout and resentment?<br>Praise ourselves for self-denial?<br>Silence our anger?<br>Ignore our needs?<br><br>We're told this is what makes us "good" women.<br><br>In <i>On Our Best Behaviour</i>, Elise Loehnen reveals how these patterns aren't natural - they're learned.<br><br>Drawing on feminism, psychology and cultural history, she exposes how women have been conditioned to self-regulate through an enduring framework: <b>Lust. Gluttony. Greed. Sloth. Wrath. Envy. Pride.</b><br><br>These so-called "deadly sins" have shaped how women relate to their bodies (gluttony, lust), limit their ambition (greed, pride), and suppress anger and truth (wrath). This is not just theory - it's a system that still influences how women behave every day. <i>On Our Best Behaviour </i>offers a new path - one where we build a life rooted in self-trust, autonomy and emotional freedom.<br><br>'A guide to liberation and a return to the authentic feminine self' <b>GABOR MATÉ </b><br>'Brilliantly reframes our toxic cultural programming' <b>LORI GOTTLIEB </b><br>'This is a really important book' <b>CHELSEA HANDLER</b></p>
