At the Nashville Entrepreneur Center, we are always thrilled to highlight the incredible journeys of our members. Today, we are especially proud to celebrate one of our own—Felicia Jackson, the founder and CEO of CPRWrap, a product designed to make administering CPR easier and more effective. Felicia’s story is not only one of innovation but also one of perseverance, dedication, and passion.
A National Stage: Amazon’s New Show, Buy It Now
Felicia’s journey just reached a monumental milestone: She has been selected as one of the first entrepreneurs to compete on Amazon’s highly anticipated new show, Buy It Now, which combines the excitement of a competition with the opportunity to secure prime product placement on Amazon’s massive online store. This is a huge win not just for Felicia and CPRWrap, but for entrepreneurs everywhere who dream of having their products showcased to a global audience.
The show, set to premiere on October 30th, will see Felicia pitching her product to a panel of judges, including Amazon executives and celebrity guest judges like Gwyneth Paltrow and Christian Siriano. If selected as a winner, Felicia’s product will not only receive a $20,000 prize but also coveted placement in Amazon’s “Buy It Now” store, which could be a game-changer for her business.
A Powerful Story of Innovation
Felicia’s creation, CPRWrap, was born out of a personal experience that inspired her to make CPR accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or training. With CPRWrap, even someone with no medical experience can confidently administer CPR in an emergency, potentially saving lives.
“We don’t just want to sell locally or nationally—we want to go international,” Felicia shared. And this platform is exactly the opportunity she needed to take CPRWrap global.
The Wall Street Journal Feature
In addition to her appearance on Buy It Now, Felicia recently sat down for an interview with The Wall Street Journal, where she shared her story and the impact CPRWrap could have on a global scale. Read the full article here.
Felicia’s journey and the visibility that comes with this media coverage demonstrate the growing interest in innovative solutions that make a real difference in people’s lives.

A Shining Moment for Tennessee Entrepreneurs
