DIVERGE: Wired to Disrupt
Hosted by: Diverge x GJV Consulting
Diverge exists because Neurodivergent entrepreneurs have been building differently for a long time — often without seeing themselves reflected anywhere in "business" spaces. Not in the speakers, not in the pacing, not in what gets called success.
This summit brings together 23+ Neurodivergent business owners, authors, coaches, doctors, physical therapists, mental health therapists, podcasters, and creatives doing the actual work — building on their own terms, in their own ways, anchored in authenticity and lived experience. Multiply marginalized voices are centered throughout, not just buzzwords in the disclaimer section.
My talk will be about neurodivergent business partnership:
Entrepreneurship gets talked about as a solo journey. It isn't. You'll hear from a neurodivergent business partnership navigating two completely different neurotypes and how they make it work across distance.
