In the third episode of the Neurovation Podcast, we meet Tim Murdoch, founder of Murdoch International LTD, a Montreal-based independent management consulting firm specialising in Canada-US trade. Alongside advising clients across both countries, Tim also served as Head Coach for McGill Men’s Varsity Lacrosse Team. For 17 years he juggled between the roles, fitting consulting meetings between early-morning and late-evening lacrosse practices.

As a late-diagnosed ADHDer, Tim shares how he navigated his academic and professional journey, before seeking a diagnosis in his late fifties. He doesn’t view ADHD as a limitation, but rather a superpower that fuels his productivity and allows him to thrive in the dynamic world of entrepreneurship.

In the second episode of the Neurovation Podcast, we meet Andreas Kunert, co-founder and creative director of Ancient Art of Stone. Alongside his wife Naomi, the pair create unique, personal, and art designs for clients using stone, cristal and bronze artwork. Throughout the episode, we learn about Andreas’ upbringing, his life of adventure, and how he came to work with the stone. Further, as an individual diagnosed with Asperger syndrome in the 70s (today known as Autism Spectrum Disorder), we learn about his unique visual abilities and the breakthroughs and challenges he faced in life and as a business owner.

In the first episode of the Neurovation Podcast, we meet Wiley Wakeman, a music student whose quarantine hobby turned into an up-and-coming fashion brand. The brand, Wakeman, named after Wiley’s last name, focuses on retelling the stories of the past by upcycling garments or fabrics and creating new pieces. Further, Wiley delves into his neurodiversity by sharing how dyslexia has impacted his life as an individual, a musician, and an entrepreneur. His curiosity, creative tendency, and ability to envision final products before sewing pieces together, are at the essence of his work.
