Alina Kravchenko has always loved inventing.
Alina defines her entrepreneurial success based on one simple factor: how much creativity she’s able to express as a founder. But being raised by a single mom in Ukraine and eventually becoming a single mom herself meant there was no shortage of people who looked down on them both.
When she drained her 401K and secured a patent for SwipenSnap, her one-hand applicator for baby ointment, people laughed at her. Until the product landed Alina a spot on Shark Tank and propelled her to launch TonerBum, an ergonomic weight designed specifically for glute workouts.
In this conversation, Alina answers questions like: why does she feel so driven to constantly create? How did she persist during times of immense stress as a single mom? And how can we determine our own versions of success as entrepreneurs?
Alina talks about:
- Growing up in Ukraine
- Overcoming immense self-doubt
- Defining success as a creative person
- Embracing falls instead of giving in to failure
- Why pursuing wealth will never make you happy
- How she created both SwipenSnap and TonerBum
