How to be Positively Badass
What do Johnny Cupcakes, The Acacia Strain, and a French tip manicure have in common? More specifically: Who? With three guesses and a few clicks of the mouse on social media, you may discover the stunning and magnificent Kyle Elysse. Not only does she ooze confidence, inner beauty, and creativity, but she epitomizes positivity and girl power like a modern-day Rosie the Riveter. This week, she taught me a crucial skill which I, in turn, wish to gift to all of you.
First, let’s get to know your newest girl crush. She’s Kyle, pronounced like the traditional boy’s name, which only adds to her unique factor. She told me that her parents knew she would be witty, and so, they gave her a name that would invite regular questioning. To curb confusion, she added in her middle name to give people pause when determining her sex: Kyle Elysse. She proudly told me of her Western Massachusetts origin in a little town called Monson, where their biggest claim to fame is that they have no stoplights, not even a flashing caution light. She is a driven, goal-oriented lady with an inspirational bucket list. Last year’s venture was to buy a motorcycle and she did it like an absolute hero. She bought one, took a 100-mile ride, and then sold it. One huge, badass checkmark: task completed, on to the next. When she isn’t out dancing with her sister and friends, traveling with her boyfriend (the legendary Vincent Bennett of The Acacia Strain), hunting for vintage treasures, volunteering in times of need, bonding with her nieces and pup (Ellie), or taking in the masterpiece that is Harry Potter, she’s the Director of Sales and Pop-Up Shops for Johnny Cupcakes. The abridged tale of how she snagged such a position at the world’s first t-shirt bakery is incredibly motivating. When she decided her boring desk job wasn’t cutting it, she didn’t wait around for an opportunity to find her. She reached out to a few companies, including Johnny Earle aka Johnny Cupcakes himself, and told them they needed to hire her. Upon telling him she had received an alternate job offer, Johnny hired her on the spot and the rest is history. Do I really need to try to sell Kyle Elysse as your new role model anymore? She sells herself.
