From trailblazing activists to innovative business leaders to successful comedians, these women have broken through barriers and challenged the status quo to become powerful forces in their respective fields.
Whether you’re looking for motivation and inspiration, or just want to be reminded of the amazing achievements of women throughout history, these quotes are sure to uplift and empower you. So, without further ado, let’s dive into these powerful words from independent women.
Inspirational Quotes from Women:
Have any other independent women felt this way? After living on my own for over 2 years and traveling across the country by myself, it feels comical when people try to tell me how to do basic life tasks. Like… I’ve fixed my own plumbing, raised a puppy alone and climbed a literal mountain. Trust me, I’ve got this.
Those who only talk about what they could do and want to do, but never actually do it always seem to be the ones that call others “lucky.” There’s another great quote from Samuel Goldwyn that says “the harder I work, the luckier I get.” It’s okay to dream about your goals, but come up with a plan and work on achieving them too!
Chills, right? Being an independent woman means taking initiative and moving anything that stands in your way. Whether that means fighting for what’s right or getting the pickle jar open on your own, you have the power to make it happen! That said, you really can open the pickle jar on your own. This thing is a lifesaver. I’d give it a fair amount of credit for helping me get through a tough breakup.
When you’ve found your passion, fear subsides. Failing isn’t so scary when there’s nothing else in the world you’d rather do! Apply for the promotion, go back to school, submit that portfolio. Wishing you’d made the leap later will be more painful than trying and failing. You can do this!
Learning to love your own company completely changes the game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great to do things with other people! But the moment you stop needing other people to be around for things you can do yourself, life changes. You can live alone, travel alone, or just go see a movie alone. It’s not lonely when you love your own company. Instead, it feels liberating to get out of your own way.
Everyone is different, so identify with your beauty in your own way. Do what makes you feel good. If you feel your best, you’ll be your best. Don’t let anyone try to take that away from you!
Another great quote about dreaming up goals, then putting them into action. It’s never too late to decide the woman you want to be, then work on becoming her. Some changes can’t happen overnight. Don’t let the long run intimidate you. Create a plan to get where you want to go, then take the first step. You can do this!

Really, just be the girl you want to be. If you want to be perceived a certain way, don’t act. Become that person! Transformation doesn’t often happen overnight, so be patient with yourself, set goals and achieve them. Be the person you want people to remember you as, but more importantly, love yourself for being that person too.
Being an independent woman doesn’t mean you have to figure out everything on your own. Instead, it means that you can figure things out on your own when you have to. And maybe you even want to sometimes! #gogetter
Love this one. Having a “queen” mentality doesn’t mean acting (or feeling) entitled to queen-like treatment. Being a real queen bee means having the confidence and drive to do the things others could do for us. Yes, it’s nice when someone holds open the door for you, but you don’t need them to.
Competition is the driver of so much of humanity’s progress. Men have always competed for success, but women seem pitted against each other in different ways, like to be the most attractive or for the attention of men. We should work together and shoot for far more ambitious achievements. Let’s compete for something impossibly good.
Another one on queen-energy! To give queen vibes, you have to be confident and ambitious (not to be confused with cocky and unrealistic). No one is perfect, so while you’re off working towards your goals, expect to fail. Your failures are simply lost battles. Your successes will be that much sweeter once you’ve learned how not to do things.
Drop the mic, right? I read somewhere a long time ago something that essentially said: “No one else can tell you the right decision to make for yourself. You already know everything you need to choose.” This could be applied to big decisions like who you’re going to marry or whether or not you should move to another country all the way to small things, like which dress you should wear to a party. Others’ opinions can be helpful tools, but you know the best answer!
Whew! There’s a not-rude message to take away here, I’m sure. Something along the lines of not worrying about what people think about you and just be you. You’ll be happier that way.
On the other hand, this is a sick burn that I hope I have the opportunity to use one day. Killed it, Coco.
Any woman who happily lives alone must relate to this, right? Once you crack the code and love the solo life, you decide that it would have to take someone INCREDIBLE to change the amazing thing you’ve got going with yourself!
Hopefully, these motivational quotes for women inspire you to do great things today.
