Episode 31 of the We Built This Life podcast with Ashley Williams from Clymb (@clymb_up) is about persistence and mindfulness and how these two skills were assets as Ashley built her own company.
In 2018, Ashley Williams, a former educator and school leader in Baltimore City, founded Clymb (then known as Infinite Focus Schools), her company that produces emotional health software for school-aged children.
In this episode, Ashley talks about:
· The steps she took and resources she used to build Clymb from an idea to a thriving small business;
· The benefits of learning emotional regulation and coping skills in childhood—and how these skills carry into adulthood;
· How Clymb works to help children build these emotional health skills;
· How Ashley has used these skills herself to respond to challenging feelings that came in her early days of entrepreneurship;
· her take on an underrated skill in business—and in life, and more.
