How do you build a global creative career without ever slowing down - and only later discover you've been living with ADHD all along?
In this weeks episode of ADHD Beyond the Label, Dr Phil Anderton and John Reynolds talk to Simon Morris, the founder of LoveFilm, a company he sold to Amazon in 2011 before subsequently being appointed as the first Chief Creative Office of Amazon globally.
In this programme Simon opens up about his journey from advertising to Amazon, the addictive patterns that nearly derailed him, and the diagnosis that finally brought it all into focus.
For years, what others saw as ambition was actually something ADHD had been driving all along. This week's conversation explores the pressure to perform, the danger of being misunderstood, and the hidden power of a restless mind.
