A brand-new month is here, and with it comes an opportunity to reset, reflect, and continue moving forward with gratitude. Many are facing unprecedented challenges, but remember — even when life tests us, we can choose resilience, optimism, and self-care.

As I wrote for my 2024 single “Everlasting”: “Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, gotta stay up – just keep moving on – stay everlasting.. never give up and don’t let the worst of life get the best of you..” Now more than ever, understanding the magnitude the challenges many face which may feel overwhelming. Let these lyrics be a reminder that your journey, growth, and light have purpose.

My songwriting has always been reflective and an extension of a strong commitment to resilience while overcoming life’s challenges. If you can reach out and be of assistance to others, do so – donate to food banks, pay off a child’s lunch program.. every little bit helps.I’d add as well to allow for grace – practice patience, kindness and empathy because you never know what someone else might be going through in your daily interactions offline an online.

This message also aligns with the energy of the current album “Let’s Dance Vol. 1: Hit Them Beats” — a vibrant call to move your body, prioritize wellness, and take care of your mental, emotional, and physical health, movement and exercise is known to lower stress and anxiety levels, blood pressure and benefits mental well-being. Movement is healing. Dancing, walking, cardio, and simply showing up for yourself no matter what. It was my message in 1990 when releasing the groundbreaking “Dance To Fitness” Workout video.. Inner peace, wellness .. timeless messages.

Trying to keep you motivated and in tune to your wellness and health. One of the things I enjoy is a morning run or power walk and this playlist came out of what I was listening to personally. Being consistent on my workouts, eating healthy which has always been a part of my lifestyle. I’ve made adjustments with that as well and finally I’ve been able to shed some very stubborn lbs. from the past few years once my hormones took a shift. As always my desire is to inspire others through my own actions, creating this ‘Jody Watley – Workout Playlist’ is another way to pass a bit of motivation along. Even if you have 10 minutes a day to devote to your wellness — two songs, one remix, it’s a start and better than not doing anything. It was almost two decades ago when I released the Number 1 fitness video ‘Dance To Fitness’ – dance music is always a fantastic way to get your heart rate up and make any workout less arduous. Let’s get it.
