The first inclusive community for women in Atlanta's Old Fourth Ward neighborhood to connect and create together in a collaborative workspace.

08/26/2026

This is what community in action looks like!

For our Black Business Month edition of Third Friday, we centered Black women and welcomed everyone who came ready to work, shop, connect, and circulate money.

Thank you to every business owner, member, guest, and supporter who showed up.

And thank you to Camille Telicia | Leadership Coach for leading a powerful conversation about building businesses without carrying everything alone.

You had to be there. ๐Ÿ–ค

So what event will we see you attend next ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿšจ SHARE! Send this to someone who should be in the room Friday.

Your Black-owned business radar just got better. ๐Ÿ‘€

This Friday, meet the businesses bringing what theyโ€™re building into the room at The Lola.

Discover Black-owned businesses, shop directly from founders, and make connections that go beyond the transaction.

And Friday morning, join Camille for Built for Us: From Me to We, an interactive workshop exploring how Ujima, Ujamaa, and your unique Elemental Leadership Style can help you move beyond building alone and create a stronger business ecosystem.

Because your business was never meant to be carried alone.

Most of us have been told to find mentors.

Fewer of us are taught to notice who is actually advocating for us.

There's a meaningful difference between someone who helps you think through an opportunity and someone who puts your name forward for one.

And sponsorship usually doesn't begin with a formal ask.

It often starts much smaller.

Someone sees how you work.
You build trust.
They understand where you're headed.
Then, when your name isn't in the room, they bring it into the conversation.

So here's the question worth sitting with:
Who knows your work well enough to advocate for it?

And just as importantly, whose name are you saying when they're not in the room?

Black women are already networking.

The real question is, are we all building together?

Happy Black Business Month!!

For Black Business Month, weโ€™re making Third Friday about more than meeting people.

Weโ€™re coworking. Weโ€™re shopping Black-owned businesses. Weโ€™re talking honestly about what it takes to stop carrying the whole business alone.

Because community should do more than make you feel good. It should help you build better.

Join us THIS Friday, August 21 at The Lola.

Being good at what you do and knowing how to run a business are two completely different things.

Star Bass learned that one by building.

What started as a group chat with a few girlfriends during the pandemic eventually became Queens Tea Party, and there was no blueprint waiting for her.

She learned through trial and error. She pivoted. She made expensive mistakes. She figured out pricing, systems, people, and when an opportunity was actually worth saying yes to.

Now, Star is building the next version of Queens Tea Party through private luxury tea experiences, special events, new partnerships, and a business that can grow without everything depending on her.

She came to The Lola looking for space to grow.

She found women who supported her, encouraged her, and genuinely wanted to see her win.

And her word for this chapter?
Becoming.

Still building. Still learning. Still figuring some things out. And liking the woman sheโ€™s becoming in the process.

Sometimes the best business conversations happen when nobody is presenting.

This month, Founders & Freelancers stepped outside The Lola and into the neighborhood for an afternoon at Three Parks Wine Shop.

Drinks were poured. People caught up. And the conversation moved through what everyone is building, working through, and figuring out right now.

No presentation. No formal agenda. Just time to talk honestly, exchange perspectives, and get to know the women behind the work.

Because sometimes you leave a conversation with an idea. Sometimes an introduction. And sometimes, simply knowing someone else has been there too is enough.

Thatโ€™s Founders & Freelancers at The Lola.

Want to be part of conversations like these? Book a tour and come see whoโ€™s in the room. Link in bio.

One question changed everything.

For Laura, it came after what many people would consider a dream day. She was working as an actor when a quiet thought surfaced:

"I'm not sure I want to do this anymore."

Instead of ignoring it, she followed it.

Today, she's the founder of Your Career Homecoming, helping high achievers build careers with more meaning, money, and joy. When we asked what surprised her most about The Lola, it wasn't just meeting other women building businesses. It was finding people she could walk up to, start a conversation with, and feel an immediate connection. That's what proximity creates.

Thank you, , for sharing your story with us. ๐Ÿค

Some workdays end with a checked-off to-do list.

Others leave you with a new idea, a fresh perspective, or a conversation you keep thinking about long after you leave.

That's what makes The Lola different.

The room is where it starts. The people are what move it forward.

If you've been curious about what it's like to work here, come see the room for yourself.
