Superwomen with Rebecca Minkoff Rebecca Minkoff

It has been a whirlwind year for Kristyn Rose Berland, Founder of Crate Away. Just two days after quitting her full-time job to go all in on her start-up, Kristyn found out she was pregnant. Two days later, her entrepreneurial reality show Side Hustlers premiered. Things have really taken off since then. 

For the past few years, Kristyn has been working her butt off to get her pet crate business Crate Away off of the ground. In addition to selling her car for seed money, Kristyn worked her corporate job full time and spent nights and weekends working on her startup. Kristyn’s hard work finally paid off when she received a starring role on Roku's Side Hustlers, a show that provides mentorship and investment opportunities for female founders. Landing an investment of $100,000, Kristyn finally made the emotional decision to quit her job. She is now all in on founder life, and her innovative pet crate will be available for pet lovers everywhere by the end of summer.

Sabrina Rudin, founder of Spring Cafe Aspen, has always lived life on her own terms, following her intuition, and not afraid to raise a few eyebrows along the way.

After college, Sabrina followed her heart to Aspen to become a ski instructor and eventually opened her organic, plant-based restaurant, Spring Cafe. While Sabrina had no previous restaurant experience, she had a deep understanding of how healthy foods can nourish you. The greatest influence on Sabrina was her mother, who taught her that what we eat is so closely related to our health. Now a mother of three, Sabrina hopes to instill the same values in her children. While balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship has its challenges, Sabrina has learned to make time for the things that really matter.

In 2018, Rebecca Minkoff started the Superwomen podcast to give successful women a platform to tell their stories and share all the gritty details of what it took to become the women they are today. After interviewing hundreds of incredible women, the tables have turned. In this exclusive episode, former guest Jamie O’Banion, founder of BeautyBio, sits down to interview our very own superwoman, Rebecca Minkoff.

Starting in September, Rebecca will launch a year-long 20th anniversary celebration of Rebecca Minkoff, her name-sake brand. Rebecca might seem like she's got it all, a mom, a designer, podcaster, author, and founder, but peeling back the layers, it took a lot of work and sacrifice to get to where she is today. Having the courage to be uncomfortable contributed to Rebecca’s success, and now, she is empowering more women to start businesses through the Female Founder Collective. Over the years, Rebecca has learned that the most successful women are strong as f**k!

The CEO and Founder of Sweet Loren's, Loren Castle, is on a mission to enhance the lives of as many people as possible with her delicious "better-for-you" baked goods. As the #1 natural cookie dough brand in the US, Sweet Loren's is taking indulgence to a whole new level.
Having endured a life-altering battle with cancer at just 22, Loren pleaded with the universe that if she not only survived, but thrived after, she would turn her struggle into her greatest strength. Loren realized that the only way she could beat cancer was by staying positive, so she devoted all of her energy to becoming healthy and baking delicious treats. Sweet Loren’s was born from Loren's passion to create a gluten-free, vegan cookie that was equally delicious. Loren quickly realized that this was no longer about her, but creating a brand that would impact millions of people’s lives for the better. Deeply fueled by her mission, Loren makes sure to live her life with no regrets and only expect greatness.
