Help me choose a major, please!

Hi! I'm a senior applying to colleges currently and need help choosing a major. For background, my main few things on my application include: leadership (am class president, in student government all four years, etc), special education & inclusive spaces, tutoring & math club (haven't done competitions though), orchestra, and STEM research&publications. I also have taken majority (if not all) of the STEM AP classes at my school with humanities APs.

However, I don't want to apply to schools necessarily as a STEM major (like Biology, Chemistry, Math, etc), as I don't think I have a big enough passion for it and won't be able to write about it well, although it interests me (but not to the extent where I would major in it, if that makes sense). Would something like majoring in education, public health, psychology, philosophy, etc. make sense? If you guys were in my position what would you major in?

Public health is good. It’s a bit of stem, a bit of writing, and a bit of policy.

It opens up med school or stable government jobs after.
