Dr. Aisha Baron is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon in Marietta, GA. Known as the "BreastNBodyDoc" on Instagram, and one of the few African-American female plastic surgeons in the United States, she offers cosmetic surgery for the breast, body, face, and skin.

Christina M. Rice founded OMNoire from a need to create a safe space for women of color to share their stories and find a support system throughout their wellness journeys. Through workshops, events, and retreats, her platform empowers women to find wellness on their terms. From launching a successful Nashville-based boutique straight out of undergrad to launching her PR firm LuxeLife Media in NYC, the serial entrepreneur turned to yoga to remedy her exhaustion. The Tennessee State University grad was so inspired by the practice that she began to work towards becoming an instructor. While on her certification journey, she felt isolated and lonely as the only woman of color in the room. "I started teaching classes, and I realized more and more Black women were seeking out my class. I realized there would be something special about creating spaces for women of color." And that's how OMNoire, a wellness social community for women of color, was born.   Listen in as Christina gives us the 411 on how she went from fashion to fitness and hasn't looked back.     Follow Christina on Instagram at @christinamrice and @omnoire.   /// ABOUT THE SHOW /// The PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT Show, hosted by Aeshia DeVore Branch, highlights women who are balancing demanding careers with a healthy lifestyle and hurdling over personal and professional obstacles.

Jaimee Ratliff is an Atlanta-based certified yoga teacher and passionate advocate for living a life she loves. She credits her yoga practice as being one of the tools in her self-care regimen that has helped her get through life's difficult seasons. While Jaimee wholeheartedly believes yoga is accessible to everyone, the desire to share her practice as a teacher stems from a sensitive reality that the yoga community strongly lacks diversity, both on a local and global scale. She believes that anything is possible once you start believing in yourself and wants to encourage you to not let fear take the driver seat of your life. Just start. Take that first step and witness the beauty that unfolds. You'll see.
