I do feel like especially nowadays, we are inundated with the message that, "Oh my god, you aren't making your own clothes? You didn't make your own bread? And you also don't have a career and you don't look unbelievable and you have 5 pounds on your frame? Where is your book that you haven't published yet?"

You can't live with letting your feelings guide you, you'll get smooshed.

Travel. You need to know you're a citizen of the world.

I do feel like once you know you are someone who is in the world and there are other countries and cultures, that stays with you and your decision-making forever.

I feel like your generation is like, "We deserve a place at this table, we have a right to be here," whereas when I was in my 20s I was like, "Who am I?" It's exciting because I do see a lot of young women feeling empowered.

If it's truly a passion and it's truly something you believe in, then you need to do it.

You can't just wait for everybody to give you approval - you will just be waiting.
