Josh White is an entrepreneur who co-founded CanO Water. He's also been featured in the Forbes 30 under 30 list. Josh was diagnosed with ADHD when he was a kid. His story is truly inspiring. It struck me how willing Josh was to being vulnerable in this conversation; he openly discusses the benefits of ADHD as well as the pitfalls, how it's helped him in his business life, but also how it's hindered his personal life. His honesty regarding the positives and the negatives of living with ADHD makes for a fascinating episode.
