He raised way too much for his startup, gave up control, and paid for it the first time around. Joseph Lee built @supademohq to $4M ARR on $1M raised. In Ep. 2 he tells us what he got wrong the first time, and what he’d tell every founder starting now. What did you assume about building a business that turned out to be wrong? 👇 Full episode drops this week. Sign up to be alerted via the Founder Confessions link in bio.

B2B Haus is officially growing beyond SXSW. What began as a collaboration between @startupbaddie and @tiff_or_die // @brandcurators.co has become something much bigger. After debuting B2B Haus at SXSW 2026, they’re making it official and stepping into their next chapter as co-founders. And the duo is now a trio. Meet Maci Parr, our third co-founder, bringing the operational expertise and event passion needed to scale B2B Haus for next year’s SXSW and a second city. We’re building the next version of B2B events, and we’re only getting started. Welcome to the Haus, @maciparr

I’ve been online business friends with @startupbaddie for a while now. We met in Pollen (RIP) and have stayed in touch, following each other’s work since. She wrote a piece for Culture Slant, and I was a guest on Startup Baddie. So, we decided to do a bigger collaboration together—a virtual summit. We both see how much opportunity there is with AI, but we also see just how important it is to keep the human layer and thinking behind the tool intact. The Next Era: The Summit for Leaders Building in the Age of AI is a five-session virtual summit for founders, brand leaders, and team builders who know the real competitive advantage isn’t the tool. It was always the thinking behind it. From June 15-19, we’ll be hosting 5 sessions based on our expertise (with the help of some guests!) to tackle the questions every leader is sitting with right now: ​→ How to build a brand that travels ​→ How to turn your community into a strategic asset ​→ How to use AI without losing what makes your work worth doing ​→ How to protect creativity inside systems that reward speed ​→ How to build a team for a workforce that looks nothing like it did five years ago Did I mention that it’s FREE?!

Arctic blasts and blizzards aside, it’s safe to say we were outside in Q1 🤸🏾‍♀️😅 2026 kicked off with our February meetup at BrainStation NYC, our first-ever B2B Haus at SXSW, and a host of thoughtfully curated celebrations of Black women in business and media. We took the stage with some of the most respected voices in the industry to talk all things creator economy, entrepreneurship, and building in public - setting the tone for another expansive year. Shoutout to the best community builders we know @itsfatoub @shiralazar @careercolin @startupbaddie @curly.spice @byfatimaconteh @olivialowens @kellykaysong @fabriksocialspaces - you ate 😘😘 Thanks for rocking with us 🫶🏾
