The Empowering Word of the Month for August 2025 is THRIVE!  Happy 6th year Anniversary to the Love Exquisite Magazine, which launched in August 2019.  August is often a time of transition, wrapping up the summer, preparing for fall, or reflecting on the year so far, “Thrive” speaks to growth, resilience, and flourishing in all aspects of life, despite challenges or setbacks. It encourages not just surviving, but actively seeking ways to thrive and become the best version of yourself.

​

Thriving has to do with, Growth: what you’ve learned from, how you have evolved, and continuing to push forward.  To thrive is also about, Resilience: even when things get tough, you can still find ways to flourish; moving onward without excuses, restraint or restriction.  Thriving is also about your well-being: It connects to wellness by encouraging you to thrive mentally, physically, and emotionally.  Thriving is about living with intention and purpose.

​

Thriving implies agency, effort, and growth, and your active involvement, not passive existence.  Thriving covers more than success in one area; it’s about flourishing holistically in mind, body, relationships, and purpose.  It is about Transformation and focusing on the fact that thriving shifts attention from what’s lacking to what’s possible.  Thriving is about intentional growth.  What's stopping you from thriving?
