Devon Laine Baxter is a Little Rock native with over twenty years of experience in fitness and wellness. Her motto, “Fit Mind, Fit Body,” reflects her belief in holistic health starting from the mind down. As a mother of four (with one on the way) and a retired professional bodybuilder (Ms. Natural Arkansas Figure 2018, post-baby number three), Devon has served as a wellness transformation coach for nearly two decades. She specializes in strength training, weight loss, posture alignment, corrective exercise, and nutrition, with a focus on women’s health during the pre/postnatal and peri/menopausal seasons of life. Devon seeks to help individuals find practical solutions to implement change that suits their individual needs during any stage of life. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge through evidence-based research and a body-positive approach.
Presenting with Devon is Cassandra Benning, a licensed esthetician, yoga instructor, and the owner of The Floating Lotus Day Spa and Yoga Studio in Little Rock, Arkansas. With over twenty years of experience in the wellness industry, Cassandra has dedicated her career to helping others feel empowered, nurtured, and confident in their skin—without relying on invasive procedures.
A passionate advocate for holistic skincare and mind-body wellness, Cassandra blends results-driven esthetic treatments with the grounding practices of yoga and meditation. She is especially known for her expertise in alternative skincare solutions, including Procell Therapies, BioRePeel, DMK Enzyme Therapy, and Gua Sha. Her studio, now a beloved wellness hub in the community, reflects her vision of a space where self-care is elevated to a lifestyle.
Cassandra is also the founder of the Little Rock Yoga Festival, an annual event that brings together practitioners, wellness professionals, and the community for a day of connection, healing, and joy. She has proudly served for the past two years as a mentor for the Venture Center’s Woman Achieve program, supporting other women entrepreneurs as they grow and lead with confidence.
Whether leading retreats, mentoring emerging leaders, or offering transformative treatments, Cassandra creates experiences that educate, uplift, and inspire. Her mission is simple: to help people look and feel their best—naturally and sustainably.
