“Behind every great woman, are great women.” As founder and CEO of the wildly popular networking platform Create & Cultivate, Jacyln Johnson practices what she preaches. With two successful businesses and recognition from Adweek, Forbes, Fast Company and Entrepreneur under her belt by the age of 30, Johnson doesn’t just have a career—she creates them.
Recognizing a missing resource for accomplished millennial women, Johnson launched Create & Cultivate to empower women to achieve their career goals and become their own bosses. She started small, with a gathering of 50 entrepreneurs in Palm Springs. In response, Johnson received hundreds of emails from women eager for the next conference.“That’s when I realized there was real momentum around this idea,” said Johnson. “It feels like a dream job.”
In cities all around the country, sold-out Create & Cultivate conferences bring together thousands of women for panels, mentor sessions, and keynotes that double as rallying cries from career heavy-hitters like Gloria Steinhem, Gina Rodriguez and Mandy Moore. The career conference has officially been given a millennial makeover, with an emphasis not on competition, but collaboration.
Orchestrating massive networking events all over the country has made Johnson a pro traveler. True to the pay-it-forward mentality she brings to Create & Cultivate, Johnson teamed up with Hyatt House hotels to share her top travel tips with all the go-getters out there.
