Join the SuperCrowd with Impact!

Asthma and chronic respiratory diseases impact millions globally, limiting lives in profound ways. But Health Care Originals, led by CEO and co-founder Sharon Samjitsingh, is changing the game with a groundbreaking AI-powered wearable device named “Adam.” This discreet device listens to lung sounds, predicting and preventing respiratory crises before they happen.

Sharon’s personal journey with asthma inspired her mission. She recalls, “I almost died five times, went to the ER, or rushed to my doctor’s home in the middle of the night. Even though I took my meds, everything was not OK.”

Adam combines advanced AI with human touch, offering not just alerts but actionable guidance. “With our Nightingale system, we provide apps, respiratory therapists, and wellness coaches to empower users,” Sharon explains. This holistic approach has yielded remarkable outcomes. Within a year, two-thirds of users report zero attacks, and nearly all experience better symptom management and Sleep quality.

Health Care Originals is more than a tech innovator; it’s a force for change. The company is scaling its Nightingale service, backed by 14 issued patents and a waitlist of 12,000 eager participants. With contracts poised to generate $5.5 million in annual recurring revenue, the firm is expanding its reach across the U.S.

Currently raising capital on Wefunder, Sharon invites you to join the journey: “We want everybody to join us on our journey. Be part of helping people live well and breathe easier.”

By leveraging Innovation and compassion, Sharon is empowering individuals and families to reclaim their lives. This episode underscores how the fusion of Technology and empathy can drive meaningful impact.

How to Develop Elevating People As a Superpower

Sharon’s superpower is her ability to elevate others—whether employees, patients, or collaborators. She combines technical expertise with a profound commitment to helping people succeed, both personally and professionally.

Sharon once led a team of 100 shop-floor workers, many with limited Education, across 14 manufacturing sites. By training them in root cause analysis and empowering them to present solutions, Sharon helped them save over $1 million in a year. Her efforts boosted their confidence and career trajectories, proving her passion for elevating others.

Sharon’s tips to develop this superpower:

1. Recognize Potential: See the strengths in people often overlooked by others.

2. Empower Through Training: Offer education and opportunities tailored to individual needs.

3. Support Self-Advocacy: Encourage people to voice their ideas and take ownership of solutions.

4. Celebrate Success: Acknowledge achievements to build confidence and motivation.

By following Sharon’s example and advice, you can make elevating people a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.
