Growing up, my mom\nwould play the same two cassette tapes as she drove my brothers, sister, and me\nto and from activities: <em>Billy Joel\u2019s Greatest Hits Volume I and Volume II<\/em>,\nand <em>Chicago 17<\/em>. Throughout my adolescence, music continued to play a\nprominent role. Unlike most of my friends, I never jumped on the New Kids on\nthe Block bandwagon; instead, I liked whatever my older sister liked: 10,000\nManiacs, Peter Gabriel, and Tori Amos.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s funny how hearing certain songs instantly transports\nyou back in time. I remember each summer of the 1990s by whatever pop songs\nwere being overplayed on the radio while I sat for hours in a lifeguard stand.\nHigh school is <em>Semi-Charmed Life<\/em> by Third Eye Blind. College is anything\nby Nelly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And of course, music was there for the break-ups: <em>Old\nApartment<\/em> by Barenaked Ladies, <em>Untouchable Face<\/em> by Ani DiFranco, and\nthe underrated <em>Don\u2019t Shed a Tear<\/em> by Paul Carrack seemed to be on\nconstant rotation throughout most of my twenties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are two, cheesy 90s songs that for me will always\nhold a special meaning. These two songs have carried me through stressful and\nchallenging times for almost 30 years, and I think of them as my \u201cwalk-up\u201d\nsongs. In addition to being a fun form of self-branding, a walk-up song can\ninspire and motivate you, as well as become a part of a ritual to calm your\nnerves and boost your confidence. And the coolest part? There is real evidence\nthat pre-task music can objectively improve performance.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think everyone can benefit from choosing their own walk-up song &#8212; YOU need one! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Watch the FIX19 talk below!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"FIX19 Lecture Series: Dr. Joelle Borhart\" width=\"723\" height=\"407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WEGxmaNZsPg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music is a part of my earliest memories.
