What inspires Nicole to think big?

I am inspired to think big by the strong women and supportive people around me. My family have always encouraged me to believe in myself, dream big and chase what makes me happy. Seeing the people I admires create their own paths inspires me to keep pushing myself, take opportunities and believe in what I can achieve.
