We had the good fortune of connecting with Yasmine McBride and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Yasmine, what habits do you feel helped you succeed?
Being consistent and creating a schedule/routine for myself. I am a creature of habit. I’ve always owned a planner and I write everything down. This has helped me to be consistent with my work and manage my time. When I first started creating content, I didn’t know what I was doing or how to land those brand partnerships but the more I learned and continued put my work out there, good things started happening. Consistency is key for any success. You only lose win you quit trying.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I’m an Atlanta Fashion & Lifestyle Content Creator. I started my journey inn 2019 with no idea of what to do. I knew that I wanted to start a Fashion blog but wasn’t quite sure how I was going to get there. I researched and researched until one day, I just decided to go for it. I started posting my favorite outfits and I got better with time, and Jasminewithawhy was born. My name is Yasmine but most of the time people only here “Jasmine” so I usually have to correct them and say “like Jasmine but with a Y.” I stuck with that name and my why behind it is always my love for fashion and doing something that truly makes me happy. There have been some bumps in the road but I overcame those challenges by staying consistent and making sure I have a great support system. I want the world to know that anything is possible. Never in a million years did I think that brands would want to work with me because of what I have to offer. I’m grateful everyday and hope to inspire anyone who comes across my story.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I’m such a homebody so this is a challenging question lol. I’m pescatarian so I always try to find a restaurant that both parties can enjoy. C&S Seafood & Oyster Bar is my favorite so I would probably take my friend there and they have a great happy hour! I love a good Rooftop so probably Ponce City Market would be the next stop. They have a cute rooftop with a great view of the city and a nice restaurant. Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Wow, there are so many people who has helped me along the way. First, I would shoutout my mom for sure. She has been there from Day 1. She proofreads my captions, when I tell her about a potential brand partnership, she looks them up and does her research. She has been the number 1 supportive person from the beginning. Also my fellow ATL content creators who keeps me inspired, Christy (@parkerevonne_, Teeara (@teearaida, and Karisma (@karisma_ray). Those are my girls!
