Pretty Girls Sweat !

Good evening everyone!

I hope everyone is having an amazing week so far! I finally have the chance to write a blog post about my experience volunteering for Pretty Girls Sweat at the BET Experience in the LA Convention Center. I'm so blessed to have shared this event my MIP sisters. What is Pretty Girls Sweat?

"In an effort to support First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” fitness campaign, Teen Diaries’ PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT (PGS) initiative was born in 2011 to motivate young women to have fun with fitness, live active lifestyles, eat healthy yet delicious food, and participate in organized sports. With the help of award winning singer/songwriter Keri Hilson, our debut PGS event received national recognition and inspired us to turn the budding brand into an ongoing movement."

You all know how I feel about inspiring others to be a better version of themselves. Sunday June 29, 2014 was really all about motivating young women to do just that. I had the chance to watch Jeanette Jenkins, Jasmine Villegas & Angela Simmons speak about the fun side of healthy living and eating. It was unreal to see these women in person and not on TV or social media. We then had so much fun exercising by doing cardio kickboxing! These girls were so amped!

I first saw Ashley Joi at the Nike Training Club Tour earlier this year, and she became an instant inspiration. She is not only beautiful on the outside but also on the inside. Her hard work truly pays off and she continues to shine! I am so happy I saw her at this event. Follow her on IG @ashleyjoi
