​The Libi Project & Studio Roza launched the Culinary Creatives Collective to foster and promote an alternate way of networking and connecting that celebrates the unique NYC culinary community—bringing creatives together to uplift one another, give feedback, share ideas, collaborate, and explore what’s next for this community.

Entrepreneurship in the food & beverage space comes with unique challenges—balancing creativity with business, managing burnout, securing financial stability, and carving out space in a competitive industry. This interactive workshop, led by transformational coach Anna Yukevich, was designed specifically for culinary entrepreneurs (from aspiring, to early-stage or more established) seeking clarity, tangible solutions and meaningful peer support.

​Through guided discussions, collaborative problem-solving, and group coaching exercises, we’ll explore the common roadblocks that culinary professionals face, from imposter syndrome to financial uncertainty. Together, we uncovered practical, community-driven solutions to help you move forward with renewed confidence, creativity, and purpose. This is a space to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs who understand the highs and lows of the industry.

​Whether you’re running a pop-up, launching a new concept or cpg product, or refining your business model, this session will provide you with actionable insights, supportive connections, and a clearer path toward sustainable success.
