Some women call it “Girl Power,” some even call it “empowering.” Well, here is my “Boss Lady” playlist. It helps me on those days where I need that extra boost of motivation. Grab some coffee, throw on some music, and handle it. Due to recent events with groups of women getting together and taking to the streets, I figured I’d disclose my very own playlist to help keep the momentum going! I am not one of those men-bashing feminists, I do not see the point in bashing men to rise from the ashes, although some men do bash women! The stronger we are, the more likely we can be prime examples for future generations of females. I am all for lifting up women and motivating them, after all, a woman’s work is never done. I dedicate this to any female who: has struggled with her body image, are single mothers working hard for their babies, are college graduates, or are trying to be college graduates. I dedicate this to all females who didn’t feel good enough, who had people underestimate them because they are just too “small” or too “nice.” Be fierce. Believe in You. You are a Queen. Never, ever let anyone take your crown.

I hope you enjoy my playlist as much as I do! Hey, maybe even let me in on what empowers you?! I hope that we can continue to be strong women, and should we choose to one day have children, may we create and raise brilliant strong women (and men) too! I do not care if you rock the latest stiletto's or the freshest Chuck Taylor's, you keep doing what you do. Words of wisdom from my sista from another mista, Cori: "May you listen to [these] song[s] and these lyrics and let them sink in, deep into your own heart. And know that you are so incredibly beautiful, exactly as you are in this moment."
One Love,
RR
