Being a strong independent woman is always not as easy as it sounds. Yes, you always know what to do and you know how to balance your heart and mind but sometimes life gets rough and all we need is a little inspiration, besides being confident doesn’t mean you don’t need any self-improvement. From iconic figures like Coco Chanel, to modern women like Sophia Amoruso, here are ten inspirational quotes every woman should live by.
