Barbara Lampl is a “badass with a big heart” as her friends call her. And she’s not just a badass in business as a self-made entrepreneur, she’s also a badass in life. For a long time, she says she didn’t quite feel human. When she was 30 the explanation came: she is on the autism spectrum. Today, Barbara is a neurodiversity role model that champions strength in diversity, confidence in yourself, and embracing failure.
