029 - DJ Mani Midi for Sweatlit at Athleta
Around 2017, the M and N Show met an entrepreneurial couple who had brilliant ideas, and in good faith and intuition, we decided to help them. Kaylla Spinks was a fitness trainer who had an awesome business idea to do pop-up workouts with a DJ. Her man, at the time, also had a bespoke Cannabis business idea that we even created Investment Decks for. Nisha and I love being catalysts when someone we meet and care about has an awesome idea that needs a little push. Kaylla Sparks asked me to DJ for her โSweatlitโ brand and at Athleta in Downtown Chicago near Oak Street. It was a bit of a โno-brainerโ to say yes to this.

Sweat Lit was a black-owned/ female-operated fitness company based in Chicago, IL & was founded by Kaylla Spinks in 2017. They aimed to promote the message of 360ยบ physical health/ spiritual wellness for women & men around the world. They wanted to provide everyone (from the beginner to the avid gym-goer) with in-person/ online exercise programs that were both affordable and effective. Train with them from anywhere around the world using resources like ZOOM, ClassPass, and GloFox for Android & IOS devices. I am not sure that Sweatlit is still operating in 2025; however, I am sure Kaylla is still active in the fitness game. Below, I wanted to share a bit of a video from the event, so you all may see that music goes hand in hand with a lot of movements.

A special thanks to Kaylla, Sweatlit, and Athleta for such a cool opportunity. Swealitโs presence is not currently up, so I will save you from the link section.
