Music That Inspires You to Keep Going (Even When You Want to Quit Everything)

For the days when your motivation took a nap on you.

Follow my "You Got This" Playlist on Spotify

We all hit that wall sometimes—when the to-do list feels like a mountain and even brushing your teeth feels like a feat. On those days, music is my reset button.

These songs have gotten me through writer’s block, career meltdowns, heartbreak & existential spirals. Maybe they’ll do the same for you:

1. “Unstoppable” – Sia

2. “Shake It Out” – Florence + The Machine

3. “Good as Hell” – Lizzo

Tips for Building a Playlist That Lifts You Up:

1. Start with songs that made you feel strong in the past—even cheesy ones. Especially cheesy ones.

2. Add music that carries affirmations in the lyrics. Let the words rewire you.

3. Refresh often. Let new chapters in your life come with new songs that match that growth.

4. Use Spotify’s “radio” feature or “discover weekly” to find songs in the same emotional vibe.

And if you need a soundtrack for turning that motivation into something creative, explore my favorite Songs to Get You in the Mood to Create Something Amazing.

Or better yet... I already made one for you.
