It's happened again! A celebrated pop-culture figure from Houston has landed on the cover of a national magazine. Megan Thee Stallion, the “Hot Girl Summer" musician who partnered with Cardi B on the risqué hit song “WAP," is the covergirl for Time's “100 Most Influential People of 2020" issue this week.


Megan joins Olympian Simon Biles and fellow music star Travis Scott as cover celebs. Biles appeared on the cover of Vogue in August, the image having been shot by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz in the Houston suburb of Spring. Scott fronted the September issue of GQ.

“Still I rise," she posted on Instagram, touting the accomplishment. “Young black woman from Houston Texas on the cover of Time magazine as one of the most influential people in the world."

Leadership in Action: ‘Family, Community and Spiritual Connection’ Drives Success for Henry Richardson

How did you get to where you are today? The present moment is a combined history of my family, my time as an athlete, my passion for learning, and my desire to see the world be better. I grew up as a successful springboard and platform diver, however, an injury caused me to seek alternative treatments to heal my body. In that process, I discovered the power of yoga, exercise, meditation, mindset, and nutrition. This holistic approach eventually led me to open a Pilates and cycling studio called DEFINE body & mind. I opened studios around the nation, and after selling most of my business between 2017-2019, I was ready to explore how I could make an even greater impact on the wellbeing of our community. In 2023, I started actively working on a brand new multi-family/apartment concept called, Define Living. The idea focused on offering health and wellness services within a beautiful apartment setting to increase the wellbeing of our residents. Having a strong sense of community is the number one factor in living a happy life, so why not build a community where daily fitness, cooking classes, and social connection are the norm? We opened Define Living in March of 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with how things are being received. We are already looking at building more concepts like this in the Houston area and beyond.
