Sophea Wideman - NeuroLocker Corporation
On this episode of Growing Your Business, Sophea Wideman shares the powerful and personal journey behind NeuroLocker, an all-in-one productivity tool designed by neurodivergent people for neurodivergent students.
Inspired by advocating for her brother through school, Sophea turned a college project into a real company, earning pitch-competition wins, developing a multi-platform app, and building a growing community around neurodiversity support.
Today, NeuroLocker is helping students with ADHD, autism, dyslexia and more take control of their learning — and Sophea's long-term vision includes a DFW community center to give these kids a safe place to connect and thrive.
If you're inspired by mission-driven founders who turn lived experience into solutions that change lives, this is one you don't want to miss.

Highlights-
NeuroLocker was built by neurodivergent individuals for neurodivergent individuals — an all-in-one productivity tool that simplifies life for students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, OCD, and more.
-
The mission is deeply personal: Sophea grew up advocating for her younger brother, watching him be misunderstood by teachers who treated him differently simply because "his brain worked differently."
-
From college project to real company: A UTA entrepreneurship class led Sophea to pitch NeuroLocker in a Shark-Tank-style competition — out of 79 submissions, they were one of 10 finalists and won funding that launched the company.
-
Focused on helping middle-school and high-school students succeed: The app is becoming available on iOS, Android, and web (critical for Texas classrooms where phones aren't allowed), with beta testing underway and strong early community support.
-
Growth beyond the app: Sophea and her co-founder mom are planning a future DFW-based nonprofit and community center — a safe, judgment-free space for neurodivergent kids to learn, connect, and thrive.
