Success shouldn't mean burnout ⚡
Hey, I'm Nic! 👋 I'm a founder, millennial and healthy hustle advocate.
Let’s face it, hustle culture is everywhere.
Someone you follow on Instagram working late but still ‘crushing it’. A podcast guest encouraging you to wake up at 4AM. The feeling that there are not enough hours in the day.
It's easy to think that constantly grinding is just the way things have to be if you want success.
But here’s my problem with it. Why has it become synonymous with overwork, lack of sleep and burnout?
To be clear, I love the hustle: working on something you truly enjoy, bringing to life an idea you want to see in the world, adding value to society. That’s what makes me tick.
And I believe you can do it without sacrificing your health—or at least, it’s working for me so far.
Besides sharing my story and practical advice in the Healthy Hustle blog, I also launched LUMES, a blue light blocking eyewear company to help people work more comfortably in front of screens.
Like most people, I spend 40+ hours staring at a screen for a living. But here’s the thing: our eyes aren’t designed for it.

How LUMES glasses help.
Filter blue light
Too much blue light can lead to eye strain, headaches and sleep cycle disruption. It may also contribute to long-term eye damage. Our glasses filter blue light from digital devices. Even though they’re virtually clear, LUMES lenses filter out the highest energy wavelengths of 420-440 nm.
Eliminate glare
Your eyes have to constantly focus and relax to read pixels on screens which puts more stress on your eye muscles. All our lenses have a premium Anti-Glare coating, preventing unnecessary feedback from entering your eyes. It helps to reduce digital eye strain, visual fatigue and blurred vision.
Blend with your style.
Optimizing your health never looked so good. Combine LUMES glasses with your personal style and get digital work done more comfortably - whether you’re on the go or at the office. And in case you're wondering, they’re made from high-quality materials which means they’re built to last.
