Josh White, CEO and Co-Founder of Cano Water, is on a mission to fight plastic pollution with a simple yet powerful idea: providing an eco-friendly alternative to bottled water using 100% recyclable aluminum cans. The goal is simple - to put the planet before profit and make sustainability a new benchmark in the drinks industry.

But Josh’s path to success hasn’t been easy. In this episode, he opens up about his struggles with addiction, ADHD, and being expelled from school, all as a teenager. Despite these setbacks, Josh managed to channel his addictive personality into something positive; building his business, raising his daughter, and helping others who are going through their own struggles.

Josh is one of the most humble, purpose-driven entrepreneurs I’ve had the pleasure of talking to. His commitment to putting others before himself and making a real difference in the world is genuinely inspiring.
