Whenever I need advice, I turn to women who've gone through my stage of life to hear their sage words of wisdom.
In doing so, I've learned a lot of important lessons. For instance, my sisters told me that women should always keep talking if someone (a man, for instance) interrupts them in a meeting.
An older classmate once made sure I knew that it's crucial to find a doctor who believes you — and is willing to help you — when you say something's wrong.
Another great piece of advice, straight from my mom? Always write a thank you note, even for minor things!
Women, tell us the best piece of advice a woman told you for a chance to be featured in a BuzzFeed Community post.
