Charity: Water CEO Scott Harrison’s Thirst for Change

“What would the opposite of my life look like?” Today’s guest, Charity: Water founder Scott Harrison , was a Jesus kid turned high-end club promoter, with all the luxury and excess that comes with it. Unfulfilled by his pursuit of “more” and desperate for a change, Scott sold everything he owned and joined a non-profit as a photojournalist. What he saw on his journeys changed his life, as he realized a basic need we take for granted—clean water—wasn’t available in many parts of the world. That discovery led him to found Charity: Water, which has helped 8.5 million people around the world gain access to clean water. We’ll hear about Scott’s new memoir Thirst , and why people are canceling their HBO subscriptions to give to Charity: Water’s super-cool new initiative, Spring . Scott’s story reminds us we’re never too far gone to make a change—our lives can be redeemed, no matter what.
