I have been through a lot and want healing & empowerment. I keep saying "I want my power back" and by that I mean to reclaim my inner power to make my life what I want it to be. I want to be independent, assertive, yet very much a woman in every way. I don't want my past to have so much power over my present moment. I want to live to my potential. I want to love fully and wholly. I want to be a good mother and lover. I want to let go of my anger, bitterness, and resentment. I don't think I'm the only woman out there that could use some good empowering music. I need lyrics that aren't so damn depressing or angry or focused on loss or dependence. But that make me feel like I deserve to be treated with respect and love and make me feel alive again. Completely empowered. Any ideas? It doesn't have to be female singers by the way. I like rock, classic rock, motown, soul, dance, folk music, or alternative. Thanks!

I am Woman by Helen Reddy. It is the song that woke us up in the 70's to realise we do have our own power and we are our own person.
Whatever happened to make you feel you had your power taken away I am truly sorry.
This act of wanting songs that give you a sense of self empowerment is great.
I wish you well in this journey of rediscovering yourself.
