Take a big, deep breath. Feel the strength of AOC's words reach all the way down into your toes as you breathe. Tell yourself:

I am strong. I am kind. I am powerful. Dignity is my birth right. I do not accept abuse of any kind from small men. I reject the cultural norms that tell me I deserved it. I am a good person, worthy of love. I demand respect, and offer it freely to those that honor my humanity. I vow to help myself and my sisters as we work together to dismantle the patriarchy and privilege around us. I am strong. I am kind. I am powerful. Dignity is my birth right.

Now, let's go change the world together. ⚡
