In this episode of Wellcoaches Inside, Erika interviews Chris Wang, CEO of Shimmer, an organization providing coaching for teens and adults with ADHD. Chris is highlighted as a Wellcoaches health equity scholarship winner and a Forbes 30 under 30 honoree. The conversation delves into Chris' journey, starting with her diagnosis of ADHD at age 28, which she describes as an "expansion" rather than a limitation, allowing her to embrace her true self after years of masking. Driven by her personal experience and the lack of accessible support, Chris, along with Xenia, a Wellcoaches graduate and her initial ADHD coach, co-founded Shimmer to address the gaps in quality ADHD coaching. Shimmer's mission is to help every person with ADHD reach their full potential their way, emphasizing intersectionality, cultural competence, and affordability.
The discussion further explores Chris' sense of purpose, which she defines as making a positive impact in an area she is uniquely passionate about, aligning perfectly with her work at Shimmer.
