From ADHD Diagnosis to 100,000+ Sessions | Chris Wang, Co-Founder & CEO of Shimmer

What happens when the problem you experience personally becomes the company you decide to build? In this episode of Pitch to Power, I sit down with Chris Wang, Co-Founder & CEO of Shimmer, an ADHD coaching platform that has delivered more than 100,000 coaching sessions. After being diagnosed with ADHD at 28, Chris experienced firsthand how difficult it could be to find the right support. That experience eventually helped shape Shimmer — a company that went through Y Combinator, has raised millions in funding, and is rethinking how people with ADHD access personalized coaching and support. We talk about Chris’s journey from identifying the problem to building and scaling Shimmer, navigating entrepreneurship, finding product-market fit, raising capital, learning through pivots, and what she’s discovered about building a company around a problem you deeply understand. Whether you're interested in startups, entrepreneurship, mental-health innovation, or turning an idea into something real, this conversation is packed with lessons from someone actually doing it. 🎙️ Pitch to Power — real conversations with the people turning ideas into impact. #PitchToPower #ChrisWang #Shimmer #Entrepreneurship #Startup
