This week, I’m joined by Jay Sweet—my former Tunestiles co-host—as we curate the ultimate playlist of work week anthems.

From songs about the chaos of Monday mornings to Friday night freedom and everything in between, this playlist is packed with tracks that capture the highs and lows of the 9-to-5 grind. Whether you’re powering through a tough workday or counting down to the weekend, we’ve got the perfect soundtrack to get you through the week!
