Rick Culleton is a seasoned entrepreneur, investor, and CEO who’s built multiple multimillion-dollar companies over the past four decades. But behind the success was a daily drinking habit—used not to party, but to manage stress, anxiety, and undiagnosed ADHD. Rick drank for nearly 40 years, all while running high-growth businesses and appearing to have it all together. When health markers forced him to take a hard look at his habits, he made the decision to stop drinking—and everything changed. In this episode, Rick shares how sobriety reshaped his brain, his business, and his life. We dive into how ADHD can be both a superpower and a liability—and why you don’t need to hit rock bottom to change.Want to drink less with no pressure to quit?
