This 30-year-old Left Harvard and Garnered $25M in Funding to Launch a Nutrition Business Inspired by His Mom

  • サマリー

  • Sam Faycurry, Co-Founder and CEO of Fay, joins the show to discuss how a family favor led to the creation of a personalized nutrition counseling service. Initially helping his mother and sister, both registered dietitians, with their dietetics practice, Sam discovered an untapped business opportunity and co-founded Fay—a digital platform that connects people with registered dietitians for personalized nutrition counseling. Fay has now raised $25 million in funding and is revolutionizing the accessibility of nutrition advice.

    In this episode, Sam shares how hands-on experience, such as handling menial paperwork, gave him crucial insights into the nutrition industry. He discusses the importance of "getting down and dirty," the value of swallowing pride to tackle unglamorous tasks, and how solving real problems—not just intellectual exercises—shaped his business approach. Sam also talks about the difficult decision to leave his dream of attending Harvard Business School to fully focus on Fay, and how staying hungry and adaptable has been key to the company’s growth and success.
