Redefining emotional baggage
You were never meant to carry it alone.
Girl Baggage is a movement helping women, mental health professionals, advocates, educators and communities redefine emotional baggage through emotional skill-building, education, connection and hope.
Because when we redefine what we carry, we redefine what’s possible.
We’ve all been carrying something
Not erased. Not ignored. Not hidden. Redefined.
Healing doesn’t begin by pretending your story never happened. It begins when you realize your story doesn’t have to define your future.
Girl Baggage exists to help people recognize, unpack and redefine the emotional weight they’ve been carrying, so they can move forward with greater confidence, healthier relationships and renewed hope.

Meet Camille
Girl Baggage was born from a simple truth.
People weren’t broken. They were carrying emotional baggage they had never been taught how to unpack.
For decades, Camille has worked alongside individuals, families, professionals and organizations, helping people navigate emotional wellness, behavioral health, leadership and personal transformation. Again and again, she saw the same pattern.
Girl Baggage was created to change that. Today it continues that mission through education, storytelling, practical tools, community and meaningful conversations that help people redefine what’s possible.
A movement, not a moment
We don’t just redefine emotional baggage.
We redefine everything that comes after it.
