Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Sugar and Spice
Its officially autumn! Its the most wonderful time of the year. I know that's associated with Christmas. In the spirit of the season, I wanted to find Sugar and Spice quotes. Thanks to Cartoon Network, those words bring Powderpuff Girls to mind. Whereas, others might view that a spooky reference. The professor wasn't using a... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Elegance
Thanks to Peacock TV's exclusive partnership with Bravo, I watched The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. Throughout Season One, Kyle (one of my favorite Beverly Hills Housewives) kept singing "Money can't buy you class." I thought she was making a dig at Ladies (present company) that she felt were acting classless. Turns out, the second... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Declutter
If you follow my Twitter feed, you might notice that I am liking, tweeting, and retweeting Mind Body Simplicity Blog frequently lately.

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Holiday Stress
Prior to our humor break (Meme Mondays), we talked about storms. Rather than starting a new topic, I felt like diving deeper into storms created by holiday stress. Although the Bermonths create memories, it can be stressful time of year too. Let's be honest about it. Mid-Winter 2022 through Mid-Summer 2022 was filled with price... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha : Storms
Last week, I was looking forward to Autumn. Then, a thought crossed my mind. Hurricaine season is coming. Not sure why I conveniently forget that. Late Summer marks the beginning of Hurricane Watch. This usually keeps up till about December cause we shift from Hurricanes to Winter Storm Watch. To be clear, I'm talking about... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha : Small Victories
I am proud to say I picked out and bought food that I liked or needed. That might sound strange, but hear me out. I am a wife and a mother. Right of the top, there are a handful of individuals I am constantly thinking about. It's very easy to compartmentalize my needs in favor... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha : Autumn
Autumn is my favorite season. I know many people focus on Christmas in July, but I am thinking about foliage and the harvest. Seriously, I'm ready to go pumpkin picking and heat my home baking decadent treats. Can I bake during the summer? Yes. Do I want to in this heat? No. There is just... Continue Reading →
