We had the good fortune of connecting with Kayla/Jazmine Green/Holifield and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kayla/Jazmine, what do you attribute your success to?
Being authentic and staying true to ourselves has been an instrumental force behind the growth and success of our brand(s). By attracting and building organic connections and opportunities, being “real” and genuine has opened more doors than any amount of marketing or money could buy. Not allowing ourselves to succumb to the pressure of keeping up with what’s popular or trending has helped us be more intentional and move at our own pace. We don’t see others as competition, but as collaborators and we only strive to be the best that WE can be, on our own terms. We have been able to maintain so many solid relationships over such long periods of time because we have built trust within our community over the 10 plus years we have been in business. We take pride in our reputation as being open, honest, transparent and always willing and ready to show up and do the work!

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
C&B Creative is a consulting and production agency that specializes in bringing unique visions to life. We’re proud of the fact that we are considered a safe space for artists/creatives to share their ideas and dreams with us. We’re always honored to have the responsibility of being a resource in someone else’s process.

We started managing our friend’s clothing line shortly after graduating college in 2012 and that’s when we started to become confident in our abilities as creatives and a management team. It was a challenge learning how to navigate business relationships and what advocating for ourselves looked like. We had to set boundaries and be very selective when it came to people and projects in order to keep our brand’s image and integrity intact.

We want people to know that there’s still cool people in the world. We know that finding good people is hard across all industries but we believe that when you do your own personal healing work and stay consistent with your dreams, you’ll attract your tribe. So for those of you who are looking for a couple of passionate and skilled women to assist you in making your dreams come true, we’re here.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Major S/O to our hometown, Milwaukee, WI for molding us to be the women we are. Yes, we have lived in other places and gained experiences that helped to broaden our perspectives but the culture of Milwaukee is unmatched and has been a major influence in everything we do.
