Curvepreneur Digital Magazine is a monthly digital publication by KYB Plans, based in Columbia, South Carolina. This October 2026 issue (Volume 1, Issue 8) celebrates National Women's Small Business Month and is aimed at women entrepreneurs, business owners, and anyone interested in entrepreneurial journeys and community building.
The issue opens with a letter from founder and editor-in-chief Christina Stevenson, reflecting on leadership, legacy, and the importance of relationships and community support. It introduces featured entrepreneurs Donna Davis and Reena Friedman Watts, whose experiences illustrate different forms of leadership and professional growth.
The editorial section discusses the value of women-owned businesses beyond revenue, highlighting their contributions to local employment, community events, and support for other businesses. It emphasizes that a small business's greatest influence often lies in the relationships it builds and the opportunities it creates for others.
A key theme is collaboration among women entrepreneurs. The text explains that collaboration does not mean giving away services or ignoring competition, but rather recognizing shared interests and complementary expertise. Examples include graphic designers partnering with business consultants, event professionals working with caterers and photographers, and business owners referring customers to other women.
The issue encourages genuine support for women-owned businesses beyond a single month: purchasing, recommending, leaving reviews, attending events, and introducing entrepreneurs to potential customers. For entrepreneurs themselves, support may involve sharing knowledge, mentoring, or making room for other women's perspectives. The closing message stresses that when women connect and collaborate with intention, they build stronger professional networks and communities.
