what it is:

Breverie is a goal setting & personal development app that guides you not just in getting things done, but into a journey of honest exploration into what you really want, what your aspirations are and what brings you fulfillment.

whY WE LOVE IT:

At Yellow Co. we love a good goal and crossing stuff off the to-do list, but not when it stops there. What we love about Breverie is that it’s an interactive, personal experience where you are led not just to set big goals, but to follow through on the daily habits and routines that will create the change you want to create in yourself. At it’s core, it’s about connecting with yourself and the impact you want to make vs. just getting stuff done.

THREE Q’S WITH THE FOUNDER, OLENA:

Q: WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO CREATE THIS APP?
Since 2015, I have been on my own personal development journey. I have been trying to discover who I am, who I want to be, what I want to do, what kind of life I want to build for myself and for the people around me. I made several big decisions along the way which ended up being life changing, but at the time I wasn't sure if I was making the right choice or the biggest mistake. I struggled, I had lots of doubts, I was looking for the answers and couldn't find them. I didn't even realize that I'd been on this journey until a couple years ago when finally all pieces of my life puzzle seemed to have come together. And this is when I felt inner calling to create something for other women that would help them on their journey–something that would guide them along the way, something that would help them achieve the same transformation that I went through, but hopefully with more clarity and less uncertainty. And this is when Breverie was born. Breverie is something I wish I had back in 2015. It is your guide back to yourself, so that you can create a meaningful, fulfilled and impactful life.

Q: AS A WOMAN IN TECH, WHAT’S ONE STRUGGLE YOU’VE HAD TO WORK THROUGH?
Not getting intimidated by the number of men in the room :) Tech industry has improved SIGNIFICANTLY since I started my professional career 16 years ago, there are many women these days holding executive level positions in tech, which is amazing. But it wasn't always like this. It took me several years to gain enough confidence to not feel weird when I was the only woman in a room or in a virtual meeting, surrounded by a group of men. These days, it doesn't bother me much, but it definitely did when I was 21 or 22 years old :) I had to learn how to position myself as a leader and how to gain respect from my male teammates. It took time, effort and patience, but I am grateful for this experience as it taught me to accept the challenge and deal with it rather than give up.

Q: MORNING DRINK OF CHOICE?
Double espresso, no sugar or cream, with a pinch of cinnamon powder on top.
