Last week, I decided to treat my inner child to some art supplies. When I was little, I loved making art. I was good at it, but didn't think I could make a living off it. Overtime, I dedicated less time to it. You'd assume this regression happened when I've became a mother. Truthfully, it... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Ikigai
Do you feel like your just working just to be able to disassociate all day? Like you completed all the steps that you were advised to and the final product is lack luster?

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Heartfelt Chocolate
You know what's interesting about Japanese culture and Valentine's Day. There's more pressure to make your own chocolate than buying the biggest premade confection. Also the gift giving pressure falls on ladies. Not men. That's because White Day occurs a month later and men reply to the heartfelt chocolate then. Since Valentine's Day is a... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Winnie The Pooh
Do you remember reading Winnie The Pooh? I do...and I don't. You see, I loved books as a child, but reading didn't come easy to me. The illustrations did the heavy lifting for me.

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Stairs
Paul Wall is one of my favorite rappers. His unique voice and flow is what drew me to him. Naturally, I'm going to listen to content about him. During his 85 South Show interview, I learned about the different hustles he had during his come up. For example, Paul Wall sold Grillz, a type of... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: January
We are a week into the New Year and it's the middle of Winter/Rainy Season. The atmosphere is a bit cold and uncomfortable. It's make it hard to plant seeds for the New Year, because the Season of Growth is associated with Spring. From that perspective, it makes sense that people struggle to transition from...

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: New Year Puns
Happy New Year, Y'all! 2023 was a great year for Magnify Your Style. I wanted to start 2024 on a high note, but how to go about it. Meme Mondays with Trisha seemed too silly, and I didn't want to hunt for quotes that were to serious. So, puns seemed like a nice middle ground.... Continue Reading →
Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Silent Night
Christmas is officially a week away, because December 25 falls on a Monday this year. It felt like the right time to find quotes for believers that align with Silent Night, a popular song about Christ birth. Yes, we could argue that Jesus Christ wasn't born in December. There are plenty of holidays that are... Continue Reading →
