Congratulations to Mica Smith on being a 2024 Acadiana Profile Steel Magnolia!
Mica is owner of Cajun Fitness and co-owner of The Warehouse in Rayne.

A Southern woman has a legendary mystique. Storytellers have long tapped into the world’s fascination with a woman who is feminine and speaks her mind; gracious, but in no way a pushover; and possesses the strength and force of a hurricane. The Southern Woman has earned the fitting nickname: Steel Magnolia.
L to R Mica Smith, Dr. Katherine Thimmesch, Dr. Mechelle Roberthon, Dr. Amanda Logue, Dr. Cassandra Pillette, Dr. Emily Foreman, & Lecy Albarado.
