Going back to school can be tough.

Whether you’re online or in-person this semester, you have to worry about homework, exams, tests, college, friends, etc.  Sometimes it can feel really overwhelming.

It’s really natural to feel something called “imposter syndrome” which is where you feel like you aren’t worthy to be there. I felt like that a lot in high school because I often felt like I wasn’t good enough. A great way that has gotten me through this feeling has been to get ready in the morning to songs that make me feel good about myself.

Here’s a list of my favorite songs by female artists to boost my confidence!

1. “Truth Hurts” by Lizzo
