PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT’s Stroll + Speak Launches as Atlanta’s New Mindful Walking Club for Women
November 14, 2025 • By PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT
A weekly walking experience blending movement, mindset, and meaningful conversation — every Saturday at 11 a.m. in the Atlanta area.
Aeshia DeVore Branch, the founder of PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT, is no stranger to producing powerful wellness experiences. Each year, she teams up with some of the most celebrated corporate brands in America to create transformational events for women and girls nationwide. But after this year’s biggest experience — PGSFEST in September — Sweat Sisters made one thing clear: they were craving deeper, more consistent connection. The festival gave them community. Now they wanted continuity.
The seed for that continuity was planted a month earlier, in August, when Aeshia committed to a personal challenge: walk one mile every day, rain or shine. What began as a simple discipline quickly became a grounding force. Walking helped her stay centered as a mom, a wife, and an entrepreneur. It cleared her mind, improved her mood, and reminded her of the healing power of movement. Soon, she felt called to share that experience with others.
What if Sweat Sisters joined these walks? What if this became something bigger?
That spark became the birth of PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT Stroll + Speak.
Aeshia wasn’t the only one rediscovering walking as wellness. Her business partner, Kinisha Perry, a former Division I collegiate basketball athlete and mother, was also looking to return to her fitness flow.
Preparing for PGSFEST inspired her to start walking consistently over the summer — and that simple shift led to a powerful transformation. Kinisha lost 20 pounds solely from walking, reigniting her confidence, strength, and routine. Her testimony video now inspires countless Sweat Sisters to lace up and take their first step.
Aeshia saw the perfect opportunity: a weekly ritual combining movement, mindset, and meaningful sisterhood. And on Saturday, November 8, 2025, that vision came to life in the Atlanta area.
A Wellness Gathering Rooted in Intention
Launch day felt like the start of something special. Sweat Sisters arrived wrapped in fall layers, ready to stretch, stroll, and speak life into one another. Before the walk began, Aeshia shared the origin story of the club — how her August walking challenge grounded her, how Kinisha’s 20-pound transformation inspired her, and how community was the missing ingredient everyone had asked for after PGSFEST.
Women nodded. Smiled. Exhaled. It felt good to be understood.
It felt even better to move.
The group headed down a scenic trail, taking in crisp air and warm sunlight as conversations flowed naturally. Some talked about work and motherhood; others opened up about their goals and challenges. Laughter filled the path. Support came easily. And with every step, strangers became sweat sisters™️.
The Weekly Conversation That Sets the Tone
Before the group takes its first step, PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT Stroll + Speak begins with an intentional moment of connection. Sweat Sisters gather in a circle, introduce themselves, and warm up with an icebreaker that sets the tone for the walk ahead. This ritual isn’t just for fun — it’s designed to break down walls, spark vulnerability, and help women feel instantly seen and supported.
This week’s conversation starter was a surprising one:
“Share something you’re really good at — but absolutely hate doing.”
The responses had everyone laughing, nodding, and realizing just how much they had in common. Some sweat sisters admitted they’re amazing at their corporate jobs but dread the process. Others confessed they’re incredible cooks… even though they’re tired of cooking every night.
This icebreaker led to honest conversation about boundaries, burnout, and the importance of doing things from a place of joy, not obligation. It set a playful yet thoughtful tone for the walk, giving women natural jumping-off points for deeper discussion as they strolled.
It’s these moments — simple, human, and real — that make PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT Stroll + Speak such a meaningful weekly ritual.
