Health, Nutrition, & Nurses – Jordan Syatt
About the show
This week we have a little different approach to the podcast. Instead of it being an interview with a nurse, we are having a conversation that it for nurses and will help a lot of nurses. Today, I sit down with Jordan Syatt. I have been following him on Instagram for some time and I absolutely love his approach to fitness and nutrition. It is common sense and easy to achieve.
“Jordan Syatt is a short, bald, Harry Potter nerd with an affinity for Deadlifting and also happens to be Gary Vaynerchuk’s personal trainer. Jordan began Syatt Fitness, his online fitness coaching business, from his dorm at the University of Delaware in 2011 and has become one of the industry’s leading experts in strength training, nutrition, and behavioral psychology.

This week on the podcast we have nurse entrepreneurs Anthony Scarpone-Lambert and Jennifferre Mancillas of Adni Marketplace (formerly known as Lumify Care). These two amazing nurses started their nursing journeys on opposite sides of the nation and met at a hackathon. (In case you don’t know, a hackathon is a conference for nurse innovators that meet in order to solve healthcare problems).
After meeting at that hackathon, Anthony and Jennifferre stayed in touch and later decided to launch Lumify. At Lumify, they invented the UNight Light: a hands-free wearable light that allows nurses to illuminate their work spaces without disturbing their patients.
And that was only the beginning… Lumify led the way to Lumify Marketplace (now Adni Marketplace) which is a community marketplace for healthcare professionals that has products and digital resources for healthcare professionals all in one place.
Today, they tell us their journeys into nursing and into entrepreneurship. They are yet ANOTHER amazing example of nurses using their degrees in unique and inventive ways.
