Every once in a while I find myself scrolling through Pinterest when I feel down and need a little pick me up. Quotes often make me feel empowered and motivate me to not only become a better version of myself, but also lift me up when I need it the most. Some people, like myself, need some words of encouragement in order to keep going so here are some of my favorite quotes that make me feel empowered.
