Thanks for your response, Austin. I agree that women can be tough on each other. I notice this in the media and in politics, too.

I am grateful for the women in my life who are encouraging, kind, strong, supportive, and non-judgmental, and I try to do the same for other women as much as possible…I appreciate your response.

Cheers,

Kristen
