Stop Doing Business Alone

The Brighter Side Society is where ambitious women finally stop struggling alone and start accomplishing the big dreams that matter—with real accountability, genuine friendships that elevate you, and the kind of fun, energizing support that makes success feel possible again.

The Truth: Your dreams aren't too big. You've just been trying to achieve them alone.

Building something beautiful but it's not making money?
Sitting on dreams that feel too big to say out loud?
Watching others achieve what you know you're meant for too?
Stuck in the cycle of "someday" instead of "right now"?
Feeling isolated and exhausted from doing it all alone?

The Solution: The Brighter Side Society gives you what you've been missing: proven systems, expert guidance, and a community of ambitious women who are actually doing the work alongside you.

That's why I created The Brighter Side Society - to give ambitious women what I finally figured out: you need proven systems, genuine accountability, and a community that actually shows up.

Together, we're transforming overwhelm into energized success and turning "someday" dreams into designed reality.

Your turn. Let's get brighter together.

Even while building events that attracted 20,000+ attendees and created over $170 million in economic impact, I still felt like I was playing small.

Then I realized something that changed everything: Dreams don't come true in isolation. They come true in community.

Every major milestone in my journey happened when I had the right support, the right systems, and the right people believing in my vision. The Charleston Wine + Food Festival. BevCon. Every breakthrough came from having a team and a plan.

I used to keep my biggest dreams hidden in journal pages and late-night thinking sessions.

Cheers, Angel

I'm Angel Holmes, and I've spent over a decade creating world-class experiences - from directing the Charleston Wine + Food Festival to launching BevCon in Charleston and Los Angeles. I know what it takes to build something from nothing, scale without losing your soul, and create experiences that actually transform people.

But here's what I really know: ambitious women don't need more inspiration. They need proven systems, genuine accountability, and a community that actually shows up. That's why I created The Brighter Side Society - to give you what I wish I'd had when I was building my businesses.

I'm a Charleston native, Jesus follower, mom, wife, dreamer, risk-taker, and director of fun who owns over 350 Pez dispensers. I create spaces where ambitious women don't just network - they thrive together.

Angel Holmes here! I am proof that big dreams become reality when you combine purpose with the right community.

Hi Friend!

"Angel has been amazing to work with. Her understanding of marketing and how to brand your product is beyond reproach! I would recommend her to anyone! She knows her stuff! And knows how to teach her clients how to maintain what she has started for them. For me that’s a big deal and helps me save money while also Marketing at the same time. However, when I need her help, she is always there!"

"I transformed a slow December and early January into being nearly fully booked for February, March, and most of April by following a strategy to maintain a consistent presence on social media. My dedication truly paid off! I also successfully signed a new monthly retainer, which was my primary objective."

I transformed my slower months.

"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!"

Went above and beyond to bring my vision to life.

"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."

"I was always searching for a community that would truly uplift and support me as both a friend and entrepreneur. The Brighter Side Society is exactly that! They don't just talk about support—they rally around you, help you pursue your goals, and celebrate every win along the way. Through this incredible group, I've partnered with a retail business, found the perfect social media expert for my needs, led a workshop sharing my expertise, and made genuine friendships that extend beyond business. With both virtual and in-person sessions, it's truly a welcoming space for ALL women entrepreneurs at any stage. The support I give comes back tenfold—there's nothing more fulfilling than seeing fellow women grow and pursue their purpose!"

"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!"

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."

Found this during a late night scroll.

Through the supportive community, in-person meetups, and virtual mastery classes, I gained the clarity and structure I needed to successfully launch my new service, Website in a Week. It’s more than just a membership — it’s a group of women who truly want to see you grow and win. If you’re a business owner looking for connection, accountability, and serious momentum, this is the place to be!"
