Nikki Rowe
“We grow up with such an idealistic view on how our life should be; love, friendships, a career or even the place we will live ~ only to age and realise none of it is what you expected & reality is a little disheartening, when you've reached that realisation; you have learnt the gift of all, any new beginning can start now and if you want anything bad enough you'll find the courage to pursue it with all you have. The past doesn't have to be the future, stop making it so.”
Nikki Rowe

Sheryl Sandberg
“Fortune does favor the bold and you'll never know what you're capable of if you don't try.”
Sheryl Sandberg, Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead
