If you haven’t heard of the Netflix series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt then you’ve clearly been hiding under a rock for awhile. This show isn’t even low key inspiring, it’s actually a completely hilarious and empowering show. I binge watched the entire second season on Apr. 15, when it came out, and I don’t regret one bit of it. Thank you, Tina Fey, for something so funny and inspiring. Here are a couple of things this amazing show has tought me.

1. Confidence is key

This tip is always lost on college-aged women because we’re constantly trained to believe that we’re tied to whatever male is in our lives. Well, that’s just not true. I’ve learned that confidence and independence can go a long way in helping you to achieve your dreams. From internships, leadership positions, to becoming the next CEO of Apple. It’s all within your reach as long as you know how to present yourself.

2. Follow your heart

That confidence is nothing if you don’t use it to follow your heart. For me, I know that my heart is in travel. I get an incredible rush from being lost somewhere and finding my way around by wandering aimlessly. Find what pulls you and just run after it with all you’ve got. After all, that’s exactly what Kimmy did.

3. Don’t be afraid to be a little weird

In order to be successful, you’re going to have to stand out. Embrace your weird and funny side. Who knows, maybe it could help you out in the future? There’s nothing more powerful than someone who accepts what makes them different and doesn’t let people tear them down.

4. You don’t need a man

Now, I’m not saying guys are bad. I'm all about a nice looking guy, but I’m also the first to admit that I don’t need one. For me, a significant other isn’t a factor in my life plan because I know I want to focus on building my own success and fulfilling my life dreams. Kimmy does a great job of following her heart, but also not letting a significant others get in the way of her goals in life.

5. Never forget how strong you are

Here’s an ode to the best theme song ever, but also a reminder to just rock your life because you can literally grow human beings inside of yourself. If that isn’t terrifyingly cool, then I don’t know what is. Really, though, keep yourself strong mentally. Life is hard, and Kimmy does a great job of coping with some serious stuff. Be sure to channel her when classes are hard or you’re having a serious crisis.
