scarleteen mix # 8: strut your stuff (image of a a kickass pink flamingo totally feeling himself!)Big day? Fighting with insecurity? Got a hot date? ARE the hot date? Starting a new project, school or job? Going to do something where everyone’s watching? Coming out⁠? Just got tested or asked for what you really, really wanted in bed for the first time?

Going to keep it short and sweet this time: this is an extended mix for when you need a little help bigging yourself up, or when you’re already feeling yourself something fierce and you want a soundtrack to truly relish the moment.

If you need backup, here are a handful of some of our self-confidence, self esteem, sexual⁠ self-image or body-image faves at Scarleteen:
