Calling all women turning big ideas into bigger businesses - This POWERChat is for you! We’ll hear from two of CT’s most locally recognizable female-facing founders. Both building brands that cultivate the kind of loyal, dedicated following that goes far beyond customers. We’ll unpack how authenticity, community, personal storytelling, and alignment can become some of the most powerful tools for building a brand people genuinely want to be part of. The conversation will also go behind the polished exterior of entrepreneurship. We’ll talk candidly about being a mother and founder with ADHD, and the realities of balancing ambition, creativity, and the constant mental load of running a business. We’ll also explore the unique experience of launching a company with 3 locations, all in your twenties, and the risks required to push the limits. At its heart, this is a conversation about female entrepreneurship without the filter: finding your voice, trusting your instincts, creating a brand that feels distinctly your own, and figuring things out as you go.

• Brief stationary flow by SSN
• Bites and beverages by BARVIDA
• Rhone gifting

ABOUT OUR SPEAKERS

Tara Rose Schreiber is the Co-Founder of BARVIDA, an elevated juice and smoothie brand built on one simple belief: healthy living should never feel like a sacrifice. Inspired by years of traveling between New York, Los Angeles, and Miami, Tara and her fiancé and co-founder, Brennan Branca, founded BARVIDA in 2021 to create the wellness destination they had been searching for, where clean ingredients, exceptional flavor, and elevated design could all exist together. Built entirely without outside investors or private equity, BARVIDA has grown from a single juice bar into a premium wellness brand with a cult following. By the end of 2026, the company will have five locations across Fairfield County and Westchester. Tara leads BARVIDA's brand strategy, creative direction, marketing, and partnerships, shaping everything from the customer experience to the storytelling behind the brand. For Tara, great juice is only the beginning. Building BARVIDA has always been about creating places people want to make part of their everyday lives.
