'Harvard Engineer Redesigning the Sports Bra' Sara Falkson on Project, Body Confidence & More
Sara Falkson is a Harvard engineer redesigning the sports bra and helping women find body confidence in sport. Why redesign the sports bra? As an athlete herself (4 years of field hockey at Dartmouth) she has had her own relationship with confidence and sports bra woes and learned that so many other women did too! So, in her second year of Harvard University's Masters of Design Engineering program she set out to create something that was more comfortable and allowed athletes to have confidence in their gear to focus on their sport. Sara is also inspired by a stat from Dove and Nike that nearly 50% of teen girls drop out of sports due to lack of body confidence. Today we dive into more of Sara's why, body confidence workshops, community, risk-taking, future goals, and so much more!
