International Women’s Day isn’t just about celebrating the incredible women who inspire us—it’s about celebrating ourselves, too. Whether you’re navigating your 20s trying to figure out friendships, careers, solo travel, or just what to cook for dinner that isn’t pasta again, this is your sign to build the ultimate girl power playlist. Because sometimes, all you need is the right song to remind you that you’ve got this…
So, in honor of women supporting women, I’ve curated a playlist perfect for all the girlies figuring it out—whether you need a confidence boost, a soundtrack for solo adventures, or a song to scream with your besties at 2 AM:
Songs to Romanticize Your Life
Because being just a girl means making even the little moments feel iconic.
– “Flowers” – Miley Cyrus (because, yes you can buy yourself flowers).
– “POV” – Ariana Grande (for those “wow, I love my life” moments).
–“Back on 74” – Jungle (to remind yourself to let things go).
Songs for When You Need a Confidence Boost
For the days when imposter syndrome tries it
– “Run the World (Girls)” – Beyoncé (obviously).
– “Woman” – Doja Cat (walk into any room like you own it).
– “Supermodel” – SZA (because you’re that girl).
Songs to Remind You of the Power of Female Friendship
For the girls who make your life so much better.
– “Wannabe” – Spice Girls (the ultimate girl gang anthem)
– “Good as Hell” – Lizzo (because besties always hype each other up)
– “You Belong With Me” – Taylor Swift (for the girls who just get you)
Songs for the Solo Travel Girlies
Because nothing screams independence like booking that flight.
– “Unwritten” – Natasha Bedingfield (the soundtrack of every adventure).
– “Dog Days Are Over” – Florence + The Machine (good vibes only).
– “Paris” – Taylor Swift (because we’re all about main character travel moments).
Speaking of travel, I have to shout out Bronte King, the incredible woman behind the Gals Who franchise including Gals Who Travel— a community empowering women to see the world on their own terms. If you’re dreaming of a solo trip but need that extra push, their trips is the ultimate getaway! Check out my experience HERE.
