n this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we meet Stephanie Camilleri, the founder of Ascend ADHD and Empower ADHD. Stephanie shares her journey from a high-powered corporate lawyer to a passionate ADHD advocate and coach, a shift inspired by her daughter's diagnosis. She discusses the limitations of "bolted-on" awareness training and explains her "baked-in" coaching approach that helps individuals and organizations—from university students to entrepreneurs—leverage the unique strengths of the neurodivergent mind.

Stephanie delves into the operational side of running a business fueled by ADHD energy, from managing a team of neurodivergent coaches to the importance of focusing on strengths and outsourcing tasks that don't align with them. She outlines her ambitious plans to expand her impactful work with universities and corporations internationally and leaves us with invaluable advice for founders: follow your passion, lean into your strengths, and get the right people in place to help you scale.
