Having ADD or ADHD is a gift, not a curse. Hear from people all around the globe, from every walk of life, in every profession, from Rock Stars to CEOs, from Teachers to Politicians, who have learned how to unlock the gifts of their ADD and ADHD diagnosis, and use it to their personal and professional advantage, to build businesses, become millionaires, or simply better their lives. Jeff Johns is a lifelong adventure traveler and filmmaker who has spent nearly half of his life abroad, with the last twelve years as an expat living throughout Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Graduating with honors from the Brooks Institute of Photography in 2010, Johns is a passionate storyteller with a degree in documentary filmmaking and visual journalism.  As a successful television producer, he has created popular shows for Discovery Channel, National Geographic, and the BBC. As the co-creator of the adventure travel platform “What Doesn’t Suck?”, he has filmed and published videos from Everest Base Camp to the Great Pyramids, and the Albanian Alps to the Greenland ice sheet. Watched over 15 million times by a growing worldwide audience of 250,000, these travel guides highlight unique and off- the-beaten-path locations made accessible to even the novice traveler. Jeff continues to work in the travel space as a senior creative producer for Booking.com and resides in the Netherlands with his French wife and their trilingual third-culture daughters.
