HAYVN Coworking: It Takes More Than Free Coffee to Build a Professional Community

Uncooked

On today’s episode of Uncooked, Felicia Rubinstein shares her inspiration for creating a coworking space for women professionals to connect, create and get stuff done. We discuss the importance of building the HAYVN brand beyond an office space, by delivering valuable resources businesses need to succeed. This brand story is about how anticipating needs and delivering unparalleled service is how HAYVN outmaneuvers the competition. We’ll explore their unique approach to building a strong community, how they offered value during the pandemic and ultimately learn how they’re redefining coworking in 2021 and beyond.

HAYVN Founder Felicia Rubinstein is a true trailblazer, starting her career as an engineer at GE and Apple before “Women in STEM” was a movement. She thrived at the Fortune 500 companies, working there for more than a decade. When Rubinstein wanted a flexible work schedule after her first son was born, she asked Apple for it—and got it—pioneering one of the company’s first-ever job share programs. Eventually she left to start her own business and forge a new path: engineering a better way to work.

She created Maven Marketing and later 341 Studios, a Marketing and Branding Agency, one of the first virtual workspaces for independent contractors and freelancers in Fairfield County, and where she held regular educational roundtable breakfasts for clients and partners. The launch of 341 Studios became an unintentional pilot program for HAYVN, a women-centered co-working space in Darien, CT, and her latest venture.

Rubinstein designed HAYVN to be just that—a “haven” for women to “connect, create and get stuff done.”
