✨ The Hardest Part Is Just Starting

✨ The Hardest Part Is Just Starting

Because Tenacity Is My Middle Name (Well… Sorta)

Let’s talk about that little monster that lives in our minds rent-free. Its name? Indecision.
It whispers things like:
“Now’s not the right time.”
“What if you fail?”
“Maybe you’re not ready.”
And before you know it, you’ve talked yourself out of the very thing your soul is begging for.

But here’s the gospel truth wrapped in glitter and grace:
The hardest part isn’t doing the thing. It’s deciding to do the thing.

That’s not just Trixie wisdom — that’s Amelia Freakin’ Earhart, the queen of flight and fearlessness, dropping gems from the cockpit.

> “The most difficult thing is the decision to act; the rest is merely tenacity.”



Whew. Let that one land.

Once you’ve made the decision?
You’ve already won half the battle.
The rest?
It’s just showing up. Sweating it out. Getting back up. Fixing your crown.
Falling apart. Getting up again.
Repeat.

Tenacity doesn’t require a cape. It requires commitment.
To yourself.
To the call.
To the why that keeps you up at night and pulls you out of bed in the morning.

So whether it’s starting a blog, cutting ties with chaos, going back to school at 49 (hi, it me), or finally believing you’re worthy of love — decide.

Just decide.

And once you do?
Channel your inner Trixie, swipe on some bold lipstick (or metaphorical war paint), and show up like your future depends on it.

Because it does.

💭 Trixie’s Sparkle Tip:

You don’t need a perfect plan.
You need a brave first step.
The rest is just stubborn glitter.

A Few Good Men ( Just a Day in the life of TRIXIE) A story too funny not to share

  There I was, playing my usual role of “Totally Not Eavesdropping Walmart Spy” in the checkout line, when I lock eyes on Mr. Mystery in front of me. He’s got a bouquet so lush it could make Martha Stewart weep, two bottles of whiskey that scream “I’ve got plans,” and a giant vitamin pack that says “I’m trying to live past 40.” Honestly, you can tell an entire biography about someone just by their grocery haul. The cashier leans in with that conspiratorial wink and coos, “You must be in big trouble, honey—those flowers are stunning!” She practically flutters around him, pitching scenarios: anniversary rescue, apology for forgetting Valentine’s Day, maybe he accidentally joined a florist’s loyalty program. My inner romantic couldn’t help but cringe for this poor guy under the floral spotlight. So, I clear my throat and jump in with my best “nobody panic” tone: “Or—hear me out—you’re just a really nice guy who likes to surprise a lucky lady.” Because, duh, chivalry is alive and well...

✨ Blog Title: Becoming Her: The Journey Back to You✨

There comes a moment in every woman’s life when she looks in the mirror and realizes… she doesn’t recognize the girl staring back at her. Not because she’s aged—because she’s evolved. Because she’s spent so long pouring into everyone else, she forgot what it felt like to pour into herself. Maybe you’ve been a mother, a wife, a caretaker, a fixer, a “hold it all together-er.” Maybe you’ve been surviving instead of living. Maybe you’ve lost pieces of yourself trying to be everything to everyone else. Trixie sees you. Because Trixie is you. 🪞Learning to Love the Woman in the Mirror Loving yourself isn’t about bubble baths and affirmation sticky notes (though I love a good post-it pep talk). It’s about choosing yourself. Again. And again. And again. It’s about saying: “I matter.” “I deserve softness and joy.” “I am allowed to take up space.” Self-love is a daily decision—some days it’s loud and fierce. Other days, it’s just getting out of bed and brushing your teeth when your heart is hea...

Making Wave TRIXIE UNFILTERED™ BLOG

  🖤 TRIXIE UNFILTERED™ BLOG Episode Recap: How One Thought Shift Can Send Ripples Through Your Entire Life 🎧 Inspired by The Mel Robbins Podcast Let’s be real, babe. You ever listen to something that hits so hard you just… pause the dishes mid-scrub and stare off into the void like, “Damn. That was meant for me.” Yeah. That’s what happened when I listened to Mel Robbins break down how one internal shift — just one — can send ripples through your entire life. This isn’t about hustle culture. It’s not about waking up at 5AM, drinking beetroot juice, and manifesting a Tesla. This is about radical awareness . 💥 “You’re not stuck — you’re rehearsed.” Mel said something that punched me in the gut: “You’re not stuck. You’ve just been rehearsing the same pattern so long that it’s become your reality.” Whew. Let that marinate. How many times have we told ourselves we can’t change because “this is just who I am”? Trixie used to say that. Now Trixie knows better. We’re not stuck. ...
