OMG OMG OMG this is incredible ... BBC unveiled their list of 100 inspirational and innovative women of 2017 and I made the list 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 The list includes NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson and President Michelle Bachelet of Chile It's true when they say your brightest moments usually comes after your darkest times. Keep your head up and work hard through it. The same people laughing at you will celebrate you Don't let being a woman hinder you, I have and still have to fight to get people to respect and appreciate my work and not limit me because I am female so this really encourages me to keep pushing and breaking boundaries Put God first, enjoy your life, love, be a good human and do what makes you happy. Don't let anything hold you back because you are a mother, wife, young, older or a female "YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE A FOOTPRINT THAT WILL LAST IF YOU ARE ALWAYS WORKING ON TIPTOES" "Leymar Gbowee" ❤
