Want to fall in love with your ADHD brain and make it work for you? Learn more about my patented program, Your ADHD Brain is A-OK Academy here: programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup___What happens when you stop trying to prove your worth and start building what only you can see? Elizabeth Elfenbein is a creative powerhouse, a purpose-driven leader, and a visionary storyteller who's redefining women's health, equity, and representation on a global scale. But like so many ADHD women, that journey started with feeling like she didn't quite fit in.Diagnosed later in life after both of her children received ADHD diagnoses, Elizabeth realized she'd spent decades navigating the world with an undiagnosed brain. School was a struggle, especially growing up in a family that valued academics above all else. But when she discovered design and visual storytelling, everything clicked. That passion led her to Pratt Institute and a trailblazing career in branding, healthcare, and advocacy—all built on instinct, creativity, and a refusal to accept the status quo.In this conversation, Elizabeth and Tracy talk about the energy behind ideas, the power of purpose, and why ADHD minds are wired for innovation. They explore how mission-driven work becomes a container for restlessness, how meditation and self-care keep Elizabeth grounded, and why she's never been afraid to run toward a problem others might avoid. She also opens up about parenting ADHD children, managing emotional energy over time, and what it means to finally recognize your own brilliance, not just in what you create, but in who you are.Resources:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/elizabethelfenbein  Website: otherhoodagency.com Website: underthehoodofwomenshealth.com   Under the sisterhood: underthesisterhood.comBlog: medium.com/@elizabethelfenbein Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Learn more by connecting with Tracy through Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or visit adhdforsmartwomen.com.Are You Ready to Discover Your Brilliance?

Today, we are joined by Leslie Zane.Leslie Zane is an award-winning marketer, TEDx speaker and the foremost authority in harnessing the instinctive mind to accelerate brand and business growth. Like many pioneers, Zane's ideas were dismissed early on. In 1995, she founded Triggers®, a CMO advisory and the first brand consulting firm rooted in behavioral science, where she continued to champion the primacy of the instinctive mind in brand decisions. With her groundbreaking discoveries in boosting salience, the Brand Connectome® and Growth Triggers®, Zane and her team have delivered over 2X incremental revenue growth for their Fortune 100 clients.In this episode, we explore the revolutionary concept of the Brand Connectome and how it transforms traditional marketing approaches. Leslie challenges long-held marketing beliefs, explaining that the human mind is unpersuadable through conscious appeals, but highly receptive to unconscious triggers that form instinctive associations with brands. Key topics include:How the Brand Connectome forms in the unconscious mind and drives 95% of purchasing decisionsWhy brands should pursue distinctiveness rather than uniqueness when developing their identityThe counterintuitive approach of layering multiple messages instead of focusing on "one big idea"How growth comes from targeting non-users rather than existing customersWhy fantasy drives consumer decisions more powerfully than reality-based marketingLeslie Zane's Book: "The Power of Instinct: The New Rules of Persuasion in Business and Life" LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/lesliezane Website: triggers.com-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesgood/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:40) Tool: Understanding the Unconscious Mind's Role in Decision Making(04:00) Technique: Building the Brand Connectome for Instinctive Choice(07:00) Tip: Pursuing Distinctiveness Instead of Uniqueness(11:40) Technique: Combating Negative Brand Perceptions(13:10) Tip: Why Layered Messaging Beats the "One Big Idea" Approach(19:50) Technique: The "Keep, Stop, Add" Formula for Brand Evolution(24:30) Tool: Prioritizing Growth Targets Over Existing Customers(29:30) Tool: Tapping Into Unconscious Fantasies Instead of Reality(33:10) Tip: Why Emotions Alone Don't Drive Brand Decisions(37:50) Technique: Preventing Digital Brand Atrophy Through Consistency(40:00) Conclusion#CharlesGood #LeslieZane #TheGoodLeadershipPodcast #BrandConnectome #UnconsciousDecisionMaking #GrowthTriggers #DistinctiveBrandAssets #ConsumerPsychology #BrandStrategy #LayeredMessaging #GrowthMarketing #BrandEvolution #MarketingMyths #InstinctiveChoice #BrandLoyalty #FantasyMarketing #TriggersBrandConsulting #PowerOfInstinct #BrandManagement #BrandConsistency

Jessica Huffman Griffin joins us to discuss how she overcame childhood trauma and a life filled with setbacks and struggles and how she went from surviving to thriving. Jessica's advice for overcoming life's challenges is not to take it personally, change your mindset, and surround yourself with people who think bigger and better than you. She was her life coach before life coaching existed. Like coal becoming a diamond, through time and pressure, she has transformed herself from a victim to a victor. She is the poster child of tenacity. The best part of her life is that she now takes time to give back and pour into others so they can overcome and live their best lives.Top three nuggets from the podcast:Have a plan and vision: Always have a plan B if plan A does not work out. A solid plan B may often be your best plan A over time. Be proactive: Take steps for positive living and good health. Good physical health drives everything. Someone once said a healthy person has many goals, but an unhealthy person only has one.Pursue spiritual health: in a world and culture filled with gravity, blame, and negativity, we need God living in and through us to keep our mindset and environment right. When you have been shot in the leg and you're bleeding to death, you can then see what spiritual death or spiritual health looks like by your response to the shooter.Jessica is a real estate professional in Atlanta, GA, married to Mike, a mother of two and grandmother of three. Jessica has a knack for healthy living.

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today, we're talking about setting boundaries, speaking your truth, and protecting your energy—lessons Sarah Horgan learned through her cancer journey. One of her biggest realizations? People don't think about us as much as we assume. And when we try to manage someone else's emotions, we might actually stop them from fully processing their own feelings. Prioritizing yourself isn't selfish—it's necessary. Small, quiet moments—like driving in silence or making a tea latte—can help you reset and recharge.We're also diving into how your environment reflects what's happening inside of you. Sometimes, a little decluttering can be more powerful than you think. Letting go—whether it's old habits, relationships, or even physical stuff—creates space for growth and helps you step into a mindset that serves you. You don't need to hold on to everything to be okay.

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today, we're talking about something so many of us wrestle with—separating who we are from what we do. It can be easy to think that your worth is tied to your job title or how hard you're working, but really your identity is not your job. You are worthy of all the wonderful things life has to offer, simply because of who you are—not what you achieve.Separating work from identity can be freeing. Inspired by my book Slow Living, I explore how to detach from the pressures of defining ourselves by our careers. JL Collins talks about The FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement, in his book The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins. It reinforces this idea—retirement isn't an age, but a financial equation that can create more freedom in your life. Workplaces can feel like a second home but it's important to remember that work and colleagues are separate from your actual life . True belonging comes from the family and close friends who truly know, love, and support you. At the end of the day, your life happens outside of work, with the people who matter most.Want to go back and listen to more episodes like this one?
