PLAYLIST

This week, we need a bit more than a meditation. Celebration cannot be quite or demure. It must be loud.

This curated playlist is a tribute to the legendary women who taught us how to claim the spotlight and dance like nobody’s watching. From Donna Summer’s sultry anthems to Diana Ross’s timeless grooves, these tracks remind us that every day is worth celebrating—and so are you.

Put on your favorite silk loungewear, light your affirmation candle, and let this playlist transport you to a glittering dance floor where you’re the star. Because you deserve to be celebrated, always.
