Wired Different
The story of what happens when the wrong brain finally gets pointed somewhere worth going.
Kevin Mastriano grew up in North Haven, Connecticut, hearing the word no. He figured out ways around it — some of them creative, some of them dangerous. By the time he walked into detox on New Year's Day, 2009, he was twenty years old, had been selling drugs since he was fourteen, and owned nothing except a duffel bag.
Wired Differentis what happened next. It's a memoir about addiction, recovery, ADHD, and building a million-dollar business without a degree, a plan, or anyone's permission. It's not a redemption story — though there's redemption in it. It's a story about wiring. About what happens when the traits everyone told you were your problems finally get pointed somewhere worth going.
For the kid in the back of the classroom. For the person who's heard no so many times it started to feel permanent. For anyone who doesn't think they can accomplish something big.
