What happens when a kid labeled “slow” in school grows up to lead a national movement to bring proper healthcare into classrooms? You get Terri Brinston—nurse, founder, and unapologetic advocate for the well-being of every student.
Jennifer “JJ” Sutton sits down with Terri, the powerhouse behind My School Nurse, to unpack the chaos of building a mission-driven business in an overlooked niche. Terri shares how she turned pain into purpose, why personal branding terrified her, and what it really takes to serve students in a system that’s stretched too thin. From surviving COVID to challenging outdated school health norms, her story is both deeply personal and wildly inspiring.
This one’s for every founder who’s ever doubted their worth—and fought to make a difference anyway.
