Imagine waking up one day and realizing your life's purpose is the exact opposite of everything you've been pursuing. This is precisely what happened to Scott Harrison. Once a high-flying New York nightclub promoter selling overpriced bottles and hedonism, Scott underwent a profound transformation that led him to create charity: water, one of the most innovative nonprofits in the world. His journey from moral bankruptcy to meaningful impact demonstrates how radical reinvention is possible for anyone, regardless of their past. Scott's story isn't just about clean water-it's about the universal human thirst for purpose and redemption that resides in all of us.
