Feminism Quote by Kristi M McKinnon
“We (women) can be our greatest downfall; jealous, possessive, and catty. Often times it is us that put up barriers to success as we fear competition from one another. This is exactly why I surround myself with women who are independent, kind, loving, innovative, and compassionate. They will always be there when you need them, tell you when you falter, and lift you back up when you fall.”
