How She Got Here
New episodes monthly!
How She Got Here with Cass Cross amplifies the voices of the under-represented by diving deep into the career journeys of trailblazing professionals who are reshaping their industries. The pre-show spoiler: There’s no one-size-fits-all blueprint for success. Cass explores the unconventional pathways taken by these inspiring leaders—leaders who have navigated obstacles, made mistakes, and emerged stronger, all while pushing their fields forward. Leaders who have come to own their unique advantages—challenges, failures, invaluable lessons and all.
How She Got Here
For How She Got Here | Season 2, Cass Cross sits down with Alicia Valko, the founder and CEO of jewelry brand Claspe (@claspejewelry).
In episode 9, we hear the story behind her patent-pending solution she built to solve a problem every woman has faced – fastening jewelry on your own.
Alicia shares how a lobster clasp – a type of fastener commonly used in pendants and bracelets – once broke her nail.
The frustration led her to create a non-slip clasp that you can just pinch and hook with one hand.
But how did she get here? Alicia details her journey and talks about:
✅Landing eight internships in college
✅Working on innovative projects at iconic brands like Lyft and Casper
✅The networking strategy that got her meetings with top CEOs as a student
✅Why your perfect resume might be useless against today's AI scanners
Cass and Alicia also discuss the role of female friendships in surviving the corporate grind, product marketing, and the resilient mindset required to build something entirely new.
Tune into episode 9 for actionable advice on creating your own opportunities.
