Neurodiversity in Entrepreneurship: From DIY Beginnings to Eco-Revolution with Billie Asmus

Scenic Route, Social Change and Mental Health Conversations for Perfectionists

Ever imagined turning an after-the-kids-went-to-bed DIY project into an eco-revolution?
Billie Asmus, a neurodiverse entrepreneur and mother, joins us to share the rollercoaster journey of turning her Repaint Tray idea from a simple DIY project into a beacon of sustainability. As we peel back the layers of her story, we discover how Billie juggled the demands of motherhood and her neurodiversity with relentless business ambition, all while nurturing a heartfelt drive to shape a greener, kinder future for her children and the planet.
The path of entrepreneurship is rife with both stumbling blocks and moments of glory. Billie candidly recounts the moments wrestling with her ADHD brain, the race against time to patent her idea, and the overwhelming sense of validation when her Repaint Tray began to steal the spotlight at pitch competitions. Yet, it's not all about the personal triumphs; she also offers a transparent look at the financial challenges that entrepreneurs face, emphasizing the crucial role that pre-orders and funding play in breathing life into a dream.
Lead with Heart
Leadership isn't just about guiding others; it's about embodying a philosophy prioritising kindness, inclusivity, and mental well-being. During our conversation, Billie doesn't shy away from the hard truths facing working parents today, from insufficient parental leave to the trials of protecting intellectual property while fostering innovation. She also spotlights the emerging trends in leadership, where nurturing a compassionate, inclusive corporate culture isn't just a nice-to-have—it's essential. Join us for this episode as we navigate the highs and lows of entrepreneurship and the evolving landscape of work culture through Billie's inspiring lens.
