Recommendation
Entrepreneur Andy Dunn shares his journey of accepting his bipolar disorder diagnosis – his “Ghost” – while building his company, Bonobos, an online site for men’s clothes. In college, he landed in the hospital after a manic episode. Dunn and his family denied his diagnosis. His frantic workload as co-founder and later CEO of Bonobos sometimes hid his mental instability – until it didn’t. After assaulting his girlfriend and her mother during a manic state, he found himself hospitalized and then in police custody. His breakdown changed his world and his entrepreneurial journey, forcing him to finally accept his Ghost and deal with it.
