Katie
Johnson
wife, mom, business woman
This summer I had the pleasure of meeting,
Katie Johnson. Katie is a friend of Myrriah
Hayden, one of our RW features earlier this
year. If you remember, Myrriah shared about
her family trip to Haiti. (Check out our June
Issu to read about Myrriah’s story.)
S
o, I sat down with Katie to hear
about her new venture and how
we as small business owners
could partner together.
RW: First, tell us about you...your family.
Katie: I am originally an east coast girl,
born and raised in New England (so yes,
last year’s Super Bowl was interesting
for me). I am married to the love of my
life, Kyle. Together we have a fun-loving
little man, 20 month old, Flynn. And, our
family also is made complete by my two
stepchildren, Cameron (14) and Molly (9).
Our live is chaotic and crazy, but so much
fun! We really love spending time together
and are making new memories as a family.
Kyle and I married in September 2012, so
our family dynamic is still relatively new in
some ways, but I feel like this is where I
have always been meant to be, challenges
and all!”
RW: You have a beautiful family. I won’t
put you on the spot and ask if you have
become a Seahawks fan.. Tell us a little
bit about your business.

Katie: Chloe and Isabel is a lifestyle
brand primarily focused on costume
jewelry, and is expanding into
perfume, liquid lipstick, and hair
accessories. Founded by Chantel
Waterbury in 2011 as a place to
empower the next generation of
entrepreneurs through a new social
retail marketplace, the company
has grown exponentially through
the hard work and determination
of a supportive merchandiser
community and corporate team.
All of the jewelry is hand-crafted in
New York and manufactured in the
same factories as some very well
known jewelry retailers. What makes
Chloe + Isabel unique is the direct
sales channel as well as the lifetime
replacement guarantee that is offered
on every piece. C+I is founded on
the “friendship philosophy”--the
idea that two friends with different
personalities and styles are united
by their passion for style and selfexpression. Chloe is a fearless
fashionista always seeking the latest
trends while Isabel appreciates,
above all, timeless and beautifully
crafted pieces. Whether you are a
Chloe, an Isabel, or a Chlo-bel, there
is something for everyone in our
collections. Pieces range from $18$188, there is something for every
budget, too.
