Can't Find What You're Looking For? Go Start It, Sister! Christine Brinkman, Founder of Babes Support Babes, Shares Her Story
A passionate entrepreneur and a strong advocate for women's empowerment, Christine Brinkman founded Babes Support Babes in 2018 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.
As Christine shared her background, were captivated by her innate desire to bring people together and create a sense of community, which has been her passion since childhood. Transitioning from being a teacher to a stay-at-home mom, she experienced feelings of loneliness and isolation. Seeking solace in her love for sewing, she organized a pop-up market for women with handmade businesses. This events not only provided a platform for showcasing their creations but also fostered a supportive community where women cheered for each other's success.
Initially, it was meant to be a one-time market, but the response from vendors was overwhelming. They yearned for more of that genuine camaraderie and support.
The rapid growth of the BSB membership led Christine to realize the need for a physical space to accommodate the expanding community. In 2022, the BSB Co-space became a reality—a place where women could come together, work, and build relationships. It was awe-inspiring to hear about the transformation of the space from a co-working area during weekdays to a versatile event venue on weekends, hosting a range of gatherings. BSB Co-space truly became a haven for women to connect, inspire, and pursue their dreams.
We are so impressed with Christine's vision and the incredible community she has built in such a short span of time. The impact of BSB in providing a safe space for women to share their dreams without fear of judgment is truly commendable.
We are already looking forward to our next opportunity to partner with Christine and Babes Support Babes!
