Standing up for your ideals doesn't make you pushy—it stops you from being a pushover. It's not selfish—it's self-preservation.

“We need to give women the space to feel more comfortable in giving themselves grace and with asking for help. Women are excellent at advocating for others, but we need to advocate for ourselves, too.”
