"I am super inspired by Tarana Burke, an activist and the founder of the #MeToo movement. She's a leader in bringing awareness to sexual assault, and providing resources for survivors and advocates alike. She speaks thoughtfully, brings nuance to tough conversations, and challenges people to think differently. Give her a follow on twitter @taranaburke."

"Frida Kahlo inspires me because she was unapologetic about who she was. She was ahead of her time & her unique style reflected her strength and independent way of living. Her adoration for Mexico, it's people & heritage is one of the many reasons she's inspiring to a Mexican American like myself."

"Poet Nayyirah Waheed, known for her book salt. has been a long time inspiration of mine in writing and in life. She composes short form poetry that speak of love, self-appreciation, race and feminism—areas in which I've struggled with, but have overcome with Nayyirah's soft powerhouse for words."
