Stop Doing Business Alone

A supportive business community for ambitious women who want structure, accountability, and real momentum.

Build your business and your confidence inside a supportive community where structure meets sisterhood.

Because success feels better when you don’t have to do it solo.


You don’t need another course.
You need clarity, accountability, proven systems, and women who get it.

You’ve got big dreams — but between clients, family, and a never-ending to-do list, staying focused feels impossible.

You’re not lazy or unmotivated.
You just don’t have the systems or support that make success sustainable.

Not Your Typical Women Entrepreneur Community

And that’s exactly why I created The Brighter Side Society — to give ambitious women what I finally figured out:
you need structure, accountability, and genuine community to turn your ideas into real results.

Together, we’re turning overwhelm into energized success and turning “someday” into designed reality.

What changed everything for me was realizing this:

Dreams don’t come true in isolation — they come true in community.

Every breakthrough in my life happened when I had the right support, the right systems, and people who believed in the vision with me.

I used to keep my biggest dreams tucked away in journals and late-night thinking sessions. Even while building world-class events, I still felt like I was doing everything alone.

My True Life Story
  • Hit revenue goals you’ve been chasing
  • Implement systems that save 10+ hours/week
  • Build confidence to show up as the CEO

Real Results

  • Weekly accountability keeps you moving
  • Monthly training solves real challenges
  • No more dropped balls or abandoned ideas

Consistent Momentum

  • Know exactly what to focus on
  • Stop second-guessing every decision
  • Feel the relief of having a plan

Cheers, Angel

I’m Angel Holmes, founder of The Brighter Side Society and a women’s business coach who’s spent more than 30 years creating world-class experiences — from co-founding the Charleston Wine + Food Festival to launching BevCon in Charleston and Los Angeles.

I know what it takes to build something from scratch, grow with confidence, and surround yourself with the right women who make big dreams feel possible.

But here’s what I’ve learned after a decade of mentoring:
Ambitious women don’t need more inspiration — they need systems, support, and a community of women who actually show up.

That’s why I created The Brighter Side Society — a space where female founders get structure, accountability, and sisterhood so they can build sustainable businesses without burning out.

Charleston-based and serving women worldwide, I’m here to help you stay focused, get supported, and feel less alone as you grow the business you were meant to lead.

How is this different from other memberships?

The Brighter Side Society gives ambitious women what most communities don’t: structure and genuine connection — in one place.

Founded by Angel Holmes, a women’s business mentor with 30+ years of experience building world-class events like the Charleston Wine + Food Festival and BevCon, this community is intentionally designed for real results — not passive participation.

Inside the Society, you get:

  • Proven systems that simplify your business
  • Real accountability that keeps you consistent
  • Supportive women who show up and encourage one another
  • Live coaching + monthly training taught through Angel’s decades of expertise
  • Matched accountability partners to stay focused
  • Online + in-person touchpoints (Charleston Chapter + future city chapters)

This isn’t another overwhelming membership or content library you’ll never use.

It’s an energizing, practical, high-support environment built to help you make real progress — month after month — alongside women who are actually doing the work.

"The Brighter Side has a magic that is rarely found in these types of groups, and I can only say that is because Angel has crafted the purpose and the logistics around it with such care and intention. I've met fellow business owners who have helped me solve problems, seen things in a new light, and become friends. I love the variety of activities, as we all learn and grow in different ways and this group enables us to do that 100 times over!"

"I had the pleasure of working with Angel at Sipindipity, and I must say, she was absolutely incredible! Collaborating with her on developing my branding strategy for social media was an absolute delight.
Throughout the process, Angel went above and beyond to bring my vision to life. Her ability to translate my ideas from mere concepts into stunning designs were remarkable. It's like she could read my mind and magically transfer it onto the screen. Working with Angel was not only productive but also enjoyable. She listened attentively to my needs and preferences, ensuring that every aspect of the branding strategy reflected my vision perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better partner in this journey. If you're looking for someone who is not only highly skilled but also collaborative, creative, and detail-oriented, look no further than Angel at Sipindipity. Trust me; you won't be disappointed!"

"Joining The Brighter Side Society has been one of the best decisions I've made for my business. Throughout 2025, it's opened so many doors—from collaborations and referrals to the kind of growth that only happens when you're surrounded by the right people.

The trainings have been incredibly valuable, covering everything from visibility and marketing to building systems that actually work. But what's meant the most are the accountability partners I've gained along the way—my rocks on the hardest days and my biggest cheerleaders during wins.

If you're looking for a space that blends education, encouragement, and genuine community—this is it."

"Highly recommend joining the BSS if you have dreams that you want to make a reality! This is an uplifting and inspiring community that has fast-tracked my success as a first time entrepreneur. Through incredible masterclasses, community feedback & brainstorming, and accountability partners, it has kept me motivated and on-track with my goals and visions. Since joining the community only 5 months ago, I've successfully launched my business, brand, and website. Before joining, I wasn't even fully sure what my business was going to be. Now my business is flowing and deeply connected to my life's purpose. Angel is gifted at mentoring and inspiring others. Her feedback, expertise, and entrepreneurial wisdom has been game-changer for me and I'm beyond grateful to have her in my life as a mentor!"

"After an unexpected career pause left me in a season of uncertainty, I found Angel and The Brighter Side Society during a late-night scroll—and it became the steady light I didn't know I needed. Angel's encouragement, the flood of resources, and genuine connection with other ambitious women sparked a confidence I hadn't felt in years. I went from overwhelmed and isolated to energized and inspired, launching both The Trip Edit (my travel advisory brand) and Cookie & Claus (our magical Santa experience) with clarity, creativity, and heart. This community helped me transform uncertainty into my greatest opportunity."
