Reducing your life down to three pairs of jeans, two skirts, a couple of shirts, and a few pairs of shoes was so nice for me.

Don't let anyone tell you what you can or cannot do, or cannot achieve. Do. Not. Allow. It.

Believe in yourself and go for it

I am from Britain and think it is right that as a woman I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body.

But sadly I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights.
