Summary
Aura Martinez, founder of MugHug store, told BronxNet the product line is designed as bilingual (English/Spanish) reminders to slow down and practice affirmations; examples include holiday themes and statements such as, “Even on hard days, I am still the safe place my child needs.”
Aura Martinez, empowerment coach and founder of MugHug store, told BronxNet she created a line of bilingual mugs to encourage mindful morning rituals and self‑affirmation.
Martinez said the product is meant to make a short daily ritual — drinking a morning beverage — a moment of intentionality. “Even on hard days, I am still the safe place my child needs,” Martinez said when showing an example of a Mother’s Day cup; she noted each design is available in English and Spanish and that the text is not mixed on the same mug but offered as separate language variants.
Martinez described themed collections (holiday editions, Valentine’s and other seasonal releases) and explained that the mugs include phrases meant to anchor gratitude and self‑affirmation. She said the store’s goal is to create a tool that invites people to slow down and reflect amidst a fast city lifestyle.
Practical details: Martinez directed listeners to mughugstore.com and the MugHug Store Instagram page for product information and purchases.
Why it matters: Martinez framed the line as a low‑cost, everyday intervention to promote mental well‑being and to normalize bilingual offerings for a diverse New York audience.
