Last year I was diagnosed with ADHD – at the age of 45.
If you haven’t heard of it before, ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder – a condition that affects the functioning of the brain and includes symptoms such as inattentiveness, hyperactivity and impulsiveness.

And why – although it does present challenges – I believe it’s my greatest ‘superpower’ as an entrepreneur.
