Meet Krissy

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Krissy a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Krissy, we’re so excited for our community to get to know you and learn from your journey and the wisdom you’ve acquired over time. Let’s kick things off with a discussion on self-confidence and self-esteem. How did you develop yours?

Developing my confidence in the field of modeling and being a entrepreneur took some time . I developed my confidence and self esteem as I worked . The more I did the more confident I became . I think the best way to develop yourself is to go through the motions and grow with what you’re challenged with in life . I also feel as if I’m always building in that area as I continue to work.

Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?

I have just taking my modeling career to the next level . Recently did a huge shoot for the hip hop group WUTANG CLAN.
Whats special about this chapter in my life is that I get to share it with my daughter Kaliyah . She see’s me on the WU TANG CLAN website and instantly gains excitement . I think that’s what this life is all about . Sharing wins with family .
I also am apart of a non profit as a community volunteer called We grow LA founded by Lauren Brazil and Storm Debarge, community work is super dear to me & I do have my own event styling business ” LA BUBBLE BAR ” I started my company 4 years ago and have worked with major companies ever since . We offer services for corporate, intimate, and bachelorette party planning.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

in my journey the first thing I can say has impacted my journey is becoming a mom. A lot of patience comes with motherhood and it truly changed my life for the better. I gained the skill of time management . Which is major when having a business and booking jobs. Another quality was having good etiquette. Thats essential in life . Treating people with respect . I feel that is required to have a successful life .

Before we go, any advice you can share with people who are feeling overwhelmed?

I recognize in comments of modeling that my environments may cause me to become overwhelmed . The things that work for me is to recognize that feeling and take time to replenish my mind , ways that I do that is setting boundaries decide the jobs im willing to take on rather than saying yes to everything . Another thing is focusing on what you can control and live in that.
