Meet La’Myer Lewis | Owner/ Ceo of Get Waisted Fitness Apparel and Accessories

We had the good fortune of connecting with La’Myer Lewis and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi La’Myer, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I personally got more into my fitness journey and realized that instead of buying products that were already out there, I wanted to workout in something that I created that will serve all women of all body types and be more affordable – other brands mostly promote a certain body type with their fitness accessories and apparel and I wanted to be different.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
With material that is flexible yet supportive, our fitness line feels great, looks great, and gives every woman that extra boost of confidence to go out and slay her fitness goals. Get Waisted launched as a commerce site in February of 2021 during the pandemic. Some of the challenges I faced during this time were receiving products on time, recruiting customers, and low self-confidence. I learned through theses challenges to never give up and to always trust in God. At the end of the day, I wanted to encourage all women to begin their fitness journey and focus on their health– looking and feeling their best while doing it!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I dedicate my “Shoutout” to my family , friends and customers who have supported me from day one. I also would like to give a special “Shout out ” to ENT Marketing owner Erin Thomas she has really went above and beyond to inspire me and push brand.
