Ep 20: Why "Women Supporting Women" isn't Just a Trend with Christine Brinkman Hustle Culture Dropout

In this episode of 'Hustle Culture Dropout,' I'm chatting with Christine Brinkman, the founder of Babes Support Babes (BSB), a community and coworking space aimed at supporting female entrepreneurs in San Antonio. Christine shares her personal journey from being a teacher to creating a supportive network for women in business. She discusses the importance of connection, community, and embracing one's passions. Christine also highlights BSB's growth, the transition to virtual events during COVID, and the launch of their membership and coworking space. The episode emphasizes the significance of building relationships, seeking mentorship, and fostering a supportive environment for personal and professional growth.
Christine is the founder of Babes Support Babes, LLC. She is a passionate entrepreneur and a strong advocate for women's empowerment. In 2018, she founded BSB as a small business market for women. Since then, it has grown into a beautiful community, with a membership of over 100 women. BSB provides a networking space for women entrepreneurs, with the foundation of friendship being the key.
As a leader, Christine's goal is to empower women to embrace their passions and pursue their dreams fearlessly. She believes that with the right support, encouragement, and resources, anything is possible.
