About this listen

Entrepreneurship isn’t always glamorous. In this real, unfiltered episode of Beyond the Brand, Rod Brinson sits down with Carmen Jones, the powerhouse behind The Black Girl Social Club, to break down what it really takes to build a business that lasts.

From missed paychecks to last-minute event disasters, Carmen opens up about the emotional, financial, and mental toll of being a Black woman in leadership — and why she never gave up. They talk payroll panic, team meltdowns, solopreneur stress, and the myth of the “hustle” mentality.

If you've ever wondered what the real cost of entrepreneurship is, or why your mission has to be bigger than your bottom line, this episode is for you.
