"Why fit in when you were born to stand out!" A motto that Erin and Desiree Green stand by. These two beautiful and vivacious ladies are an example of uniqueness. They may look the same, have a similar walk, and carry themselves in the same manner but their personalities are quite unique. Erin is the observant of the two. She’s known for examining first, take action second. Desiree is the bold and daring one, known to act first ask questions later. These contrasting personalities allows them to be there for each other, support and encourage one other.
They didn’t see things quite this way growing up. They tried their best to fit in with the in-crowd. Found it difficult to grab the attention of others and socially were labeled as ‘awkward’. They were ridiculed and bullied as youth for their lack of size and peculiar look.
Overcoming childhood obstacles, led us to share our experiences with others through the development of Twin of a Kind. Twin of A Kind (TAK) is a self-empowerment organization based on building self-esteem and creating positive self-awareness by motivating and encouraging youth/young adults to see their potential. A hallmark of TAK is gaining self-acceptance and the understanding that everyone is different in their own way. Twin of A Kind provides interactive workshops called "Unlock and Unleash Your Star Potential" designed to help individuals get to know themselves, love themselves, and be true to themselves.
Their defining moments that have led them out of their zone of isolation and fear was being able to conquer self-doubt and just simply take risks. They gained their confidence by appearing on Fear Factor (Twins Edition) in 2005; appearing on a music video by Slum Village titled, "Selfish" featuring Kanye West; while captivating their audiences on the runway with their dynamic synchronized strut, wearing the hottest trends and fashions of many fashion designers. Embracing size and appearance on countless amounts of print ads; obtaining over 30 years of combined experience in the mental health field; and most of all just being a twin and always knowing they have someone by their side.
