Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Jason Raznick, the founder and CEO of Benzinga, a financial content platform that's all about making complex financial information accessible and easy to digest—something we ADHD-ers can definitely appreciate! Jason is not just a successful entrepreneur but also someone who navigates life with ADHD. He shares his personal journey from being a young boy who taped himself to his chair in school to becoming a leading voice in financial news. We dive into the challenges and triumphs of managing ADHD in both personal and professional life, especially in the high-stakes world of finance. Jason’s story is one of resilience, innovation, and learning to harness ADHD as a strength rather than a setback.
