Playlists for Moms aka Mom Mix Tapes

Do you remember Mix Tapes? The HOURS sometimes DAYS of putting together that cassette tape of all your favorite songs. Over time the “Mixtape” has become “the Playlist.” Just because you’ve popped out a couple of humans does not mean that you are no longer allowed to “bust a groove.” Music is a powerful thing that has proved the best medicine for a stressful day so we’ve come up with some ideas for playlists for moms.

In “Mama’s Feel Good Mix Tape 1” I have chosen just a few songs that could maybe jump start your own Mama Mixtape! When you are feeling stressed, overwhelmed and at the end of your rope… that is when playlists for moms can save the day! My mom playlist includes Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Chaka Kahn, Journey, X Ambassadors and more. These songs always make me smile. I’m a firm believer in the power of music.


I was asked how these songs relate to being a mom.  Honestly, not all of them do. But I will say that these are my Wonder Woman Songs. Songs that bring my spirit up and give me energy to get through the day.

If I am mad, sad, frustrated, or need motivation to get it done… These are the songs that are at the top of my list!
