What happens when life gets hard... but your business doesn’t stop?

Clients still need things. Deadlines still exist. Bills still need to be paid. People still expect you to show up. But behind the scenes, you might be navigating heartbreak, family struggles, health challenges, burnout, grief, anxiety, or simply a season where life feels really freaking heavy.

In this episode of Happy Hour with Society 22, Jazzy, Steph, Kaelyn, and Tara get real about the personal struggles we’ve navigated while simultaneously trying to run businesses, and the pressure entrepreneurs often put on themselves to keep showing up like everything is fine.

Because entrepreneurship doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Life happens right alongside it.

We’re talking about the seasons when we weren’t at 100%, what actually helped us keep going, and why sometimes the thing you need most isn’t another business strategy - it’s people in your corner who understand what you’re carrying.

In this episode, we discuss:

🥂 Navigating personal struggles while still running a business

🥂 The pressure to stay productive and “keep it together” when life feels anything but

🥂 How we’ve learned to balance showing up with giving ourselves permission to slow down

🥂 The mindset shifts, habits, and support systems that have helped us through difficult seasons

🥂 Why entrepreneurship can feel so isolating when you’re struggling behind the scenes

🥂 How friendship, community, and having other women entrepreneurs in our corner has changed the way we navigate the hard stuff

One of the biggest misconceptions about successful entrepreneurs is that they somehow stop having hard seasons.

We don’t.

Life gets messy. Business gets messy. Sometimes they get messy at the exact same time.

You don’t have to have everything perfectly together to keep moving forward, and you definitely don’t have to carry all of it alone.

Episode 3: What We'd Tell the Version of Ourselves From 2 Years Ago

If you could sit down with the version of yourself from two years ago over a happy hour... what would you tell her?

In this episode of Happy Hour with Society 22, we're reflecting on how much can change in just a couple of years, not only in business, but in our confidence, mindset, relationships, and the way we approach entrepreneurship.

Looking back, there are so many things we wish we could tell ourselves. Some lessons came through big wins, while others came from mistakes, setbacks, and seasons that challenged us in ways we never expected.

This conversation is a reminder that growth isn't always linear, and sometimes the things you're stressing about today won't even matter a year from now.

In this episode, we discuss:

🥂 Where we were in our businesses and lives just two years ago

🥂 The things we worried about that turned out not to matter

🥂 The advice we'd give our younger entrepreneur selves

🥂 The lessons we had to learn the hard way

🥂 The moments that completely changed our perspective

🥂 How community, friendship, and collaboration have shaped our growth

Whether you're just getting started or you're in the middle of building something big, we hope this episode reminds you to trust yourself, keep going, and give yourself permission to grow.

Sometimes the version of you that's two years ahead already has all the answers—you just have to keep moving long enough to meet her.

Episode 2: Boundaries, Friendship & Business: How Personal Should Business Partners Get?

Can you be close friends and successful business partners?

It's a question we've been navigating since the beginning of Society 22.

In this episode of Happy Hour with Society 22, we're talking about the realities of building a business with people you genuinely care about. From friendship and support to accountability and difficult conversations, we're sharing what we've learned about balancing personal relationships while growing something together.

Because while collaboration can be incredibly powerful, it also requires communication, trust, boundaries, and a willingness to have honest conversations when things aren't working.

We're diving into what it looks like to support each other through life, celebrate wins together, navigate challenges, and still maintain a strong business foundation behind the scenes.

In this episode, we discuss:

🥂 How personal we believe business partnerships should be

🥂 The difference between friendship and business responsibilities

🥂 Why boundaries actually strengthen relationships

🥂 The importance of open communication and accountability

🥂 Navigating difficult conversations as founders

🥂 Contracts, expectations, money conversations, and protecting the business

🥂 How we've built trust while still challenging each other to show up

If you've ever wondered whether friendship and business can successfully coexist, this conversation is for you.

Because great partnerships aren't built by avoiding hard conversations - they're built by having them.
