Jake and Caroline Danehy founded Fair Harbor, a company that makes swimwear made out of recycled plastic bottles, at the ages of 20 and 17, while studying at Colgate University. The brother and sister duo pitched the idea in a Shark Tank competition put together by their university, and won a $20,000 grant.

Here’s how to come out of this experience a wiser, more compassionate person.
