When Sarah Krasley was a little girl growing up in Allentown, Pennsylvania, she witnessed the collapse of the local steel industry and the devastating impact it had on her community. Hundreds of thousands of people, including members of her own family, lost their jobs seemingly overnight when the factories closed down.
That experience planted a seed that would eventually blossom into her life's work - finding ways to uplift and reskill workers displaced by automation and technological change. After an initial failure with a custom swimsuit company, Sarah started Shimmy, an industrial EdTech platform that uses engaging video games to train workers in the global fashion supply chain.
In this uplifting conversation, Sarah shares inspiring insights about her entrepreneurial journey, the value of curiosity and lifelong learning, and the power of surrounding yourself with courage-boosting voices.
5 Uplifting Lessons from Sarah Krasley
1. Reframe "failures" as learning opportunities that combust like stars, generating new fragments you can cultivate into future successes.
2. Listen for where you feel flow and joy rather than forcing things. That's a sign you're playing to your strengths.
3. Plan and get clear on your intentions before difficult conversations. It builds courage.
4. Cultivate self-awareness about past hurts so you don't project them unfairly onto new situations.
5. Prioritize restorative practices like sleep, creative outlets, and nurturing supportive relationships.
