🍷 Aging Like a Fine Wine… and Finally Realizing I’m the Whole Damn Vineyard

🍷 Aging Like a Fine Wine… and Finally Realizing I’m the Whole Damn Vineyard There was a time when I thought getting older meant fading into the background. Buying beige cardigans. Settling down. Lowering my voice. Being “grateful” for whatever crumbs of love or attention life tossed my way. Spoiler alert: That version of me? She’s retired. She’s sipping tea in peace while I’m out here raising a glass to the woman I’ve become. Because listen… I’m not just aging like fine wine—I am the whole damn vineyard. Grown. Harvested. Fermented through heartbreak, bad decisions, silent battles, and glow-ups no one saw coming. Every grape in this vineyard? Hand-picked by experience. 🍇 The Vintage Years Hit Different In your 20s, you worry if you’re too much. In your 30s, you start asking questions. But honey, your 40s? That’s when you realize: > “I *was never too much. They were just not enough.” – Trixie, on a Tuesday with good lipstick I’ve got laugh lines that tell better stories than half t...

💖“Love Your Frenemies and Cultivate Your Inner Fruit Basket”💖

👀Hey! 💕 It’s your girl Trixie,  Coming at you with a double dose of scripture and sass. Today we’re diving into two powerhouse passages—Luke 6:27-28 and Galatians 5:22-23—and yes, I’ll make it funny. Because if you can’t laugh while loving your enemies and growing your spiritual fruit, what are we even doing here? 💗1. Love Your Enemies…Really?! (Luke 6:27-28) “But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you.  Bles those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you.                    -Luke 6:27-28   Translation for Today’s Trixies: “Okay, Jesus, I get the love-your-enemies bit… but what about Brenda in HR who ‘accidentally’ stole my lunch every Tuesday? And Chad from the gym who hogs all the treadmills while flexing? Am I supposed to bake them cookies and send them thank-you cards?” Short answer: Yes. Longer, sassier answer: Yes, but let’s do it with style.💖💖💖💖💖...

✨ “Forgiven, But Not Forgotten… And Definitely Not Foolish”

✨ “Forgiven, But Not Forgotten… And Definitely Not Foolish” By Trixie Unfiltered™ Let’s clear something up real quick. Just because I’ve forgiven you… Doesn’t mean I have amnesia. It just means I’ve chosen peace over pettiness. Growth over grudges. But let’s not confuse that with an open-door policy to my life. See, forgiveness—real forgiveness—is for me. It’s so I can sleep at night. So I don’t carry around your bad energy like emotional carry-on luggage. But forgetting? Oh, baby, that’s called wisdom. I’ve noticed people getting increasingly uncomfortable lately with my glow-up. They liked me better when I was over-apologizing, people-pleasing, and second-guessing myself to make them comfortable. Now that I’m focused, healed, and not answering every guilt-tripped phone call or backhanded compliment? Suddenly, I’m the problem. Let me tell you something: I can forgive you without letting you back into my life. I can wish you well… from a distance. I can pray for your peace… while prote...

“Not Conformed. But Transformed.”

“Not Conformed. But Transformed.” (A Soul Sermon on Romans 12:2 and the Power of Renewing Your Mind) Verse of the Day: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will.” — Romans 12:2 (NIV) Let’s Be Real for a Minute… There’s a whole lotta noise out here. Every day the world tells you who to be. How to act. What to want. What to wear. Who to love. What to chase. And it’s LOUD. But Romans 12:2 steps in like a holy mic drop and says: “STOP. Don’t fall for it.” This isn’t about perfection—this is about permission. Permission to renew your mind. Permission to transform instead of conform. Because if the world is pressing you into a mold that was never shaped for you—maybe it’s time to break it. The World Says: Be More. God Says: Be Mine. You were never meant to shrink yourself to fit into their boxes. You were meant to be transformed by the renewing...
