March is Women's History Month, and it always gets me thinking about the women who've inspired me, fought for me and pushed for the freedoms and privileges that my daughter and I enjoy today. It's also a time to remember and honor those women who've inspired us to change the way we think about ourselves and our place in the world.

With that in mind, I thought I'd point out three women who've inspired me to change the way I think about body image:

Eleanor Roosevelt, who once said, "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." While not directly about body image, her words remind me that it's what we think about ourselves that determines how we feel.

Gloria Steinem, who famously told a reporter who said she didn't look 40 that "this is what 40 looks like." Steinem went on to say, "We've been lying for so long, who would know?" For me, Steinem's words are a great reminder not to let anyone else define what I should look like or how I should behave, for that matter. It's also a great reminder that self-acceptance and healthy aging go hand and hand.
