That was so fun. I listened with my Libby. She got very quiet and then she broke out into a roaring laughter. We both feel better and never heard that music before. She has a great voice and I love your fire and to dance. Thank you for turning me on. Oops maybe that sounded weird.

Well, that is about the most delightful response I could hope for. Thank you so much for sharing that. It’s the first thing I read this morning, and a wonderful way to start my day. I’m so glad you and Libby enjoyed the song. 💜 (And don’t worry. It didn’t sound weird at all 😊)

Anything by Lizzo but especially Good as Hell and About Damn Time. Thank you for this Monday moxie, you’ve inspired me to put on a Spotify dance playlist in the shower (sorry if that’s TMI). I used to do that every morning and slowly stopped. It used to really help my depression and also kickstart the morning. Thank you Jamie!

Totally not TMI. I usually listen to audio books while I'm in the shower, but sometimes - especially on a Friday night when I'm trying to give myself a second wind/mood boost - I will play some music instead. I have a Spotify playlist called Self-love Hug that, coincidentally, has a lot of Lizzo on it. Here's the link if you'd like to check it out:

"I don't know about you, but I feel better when I'm dancing"

It's so true!

There's something incredibly liberating about dancing. It's like all your worries and anxieties fade away, and you're left with pure joy and energy. It's a reminder that sometimes the best way to feel better is to simply move your body and let the music take over. 🩵

Exactly! There's something about movement + surrender ... combined they are like an alchemical spell that can shift our internal clouds and bring out the rainbows. 🌈

No such thing as a guilty pleasure in my book ;)

I couldn't agree more, though I sometimes have to remind myself. 😉

I loooove to dance! Never been a performer, but play the right music, and I'll be lighting up the dance floor. Anything with a good beat, and yes, I've got a Meghan Trainor song on my playlist!

Yay! 🎉 Dancing for the win! And I’m glad to know I’m not alone in enjoying Meghan Trainor’s music. She was the first concert I took my daughter to. 🥰

Knowing this brought you a smile makes me happy. And something tells me you’re a woman who isn’t afraid to dance. 😉

Sorry - two left feet here, as they say. But in my dreams I dance away!!!

Even with two left feet, you can do your own kind of dance. I almost used a clip of Elaine from Seinfeld in this post. I love that she just did her own thing. I don’t remember how the episode turned out, but I loved her for that ridiculous dance. 😍
