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___When you're the eldest daughter of immigrants with ADHD and autism, you learn to mask early and master systems—but at what cost? Meral Alizada knows this story intimately, and she's using it to transform how companies think about neurodivergent talent.Meral is the founder of Results of Kindness (ROK), where she helps organizations build workplaces where neurodivergent minds aren't just accommodated, they're celebrated. With degrees in Law and Psychology and a background in organizational psychology, she knows how to navigate systems. But what sets her apart is how she redesigns them with empathy, creativity, and a deep understanding of what actually works for ADHD and autistic brains.Diagnosed with both ADHD and autism in her late twenties while working one-on-one with a brilliant child who shared her traits, Meral's journey from law to psychology to entrepreneurship is as nonlinear as her thinking. In this conversation, she and Tracy explore the weight of being ultra-organized out of anxiety, the loneliness of outgrowing friendships, and why our relentless drive for self-development might be our greatest superpower.Meral also breaks down her "Genius Retention" program, explaining why kindness isn't just nice to have—it's profitable. When 89% of workers want kindness in the workplace but 77% are disengaged globally, she argues that treating people as human beings strengthens the hands with which they contribute to organizations. Born to Afghan-Uzbek parents and raised across Europe, Meral brings both global perspective and deeply personal insight to the future of work.Resources:Website: https://resultsofkindness.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themeralalizada LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meralalizada 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?

In today's episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with Donna Eden, world-renowned teacher, energy medicine pioneer, and living example of what's possible when we trust the body's wisdom. At 16, Donna was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. By her twenties, doctors told her to “get her affairs in order.” But instead of giving up, she turned inward and activated a healing intelligence that transformed her life forever. In this conversation, we explore what true healing means, from chronic illness to emotional trauma, from heartbreak to soul fatigue. Donna shares simple yet powerful energy techniques you can use right now to awaken vitality, move through pain, and reconnect with your joy. We talk about trauma, aging, intuition, seeing energy, and the sacred design of the human body, and why your energy field holds the blueprint for your transformation.

In this honest and eye-opening episode, Lindsey Maestas dives deep into the impact of ADHD on relationships and friendships. With vulnerability, faith, and research-backed insight, she explores why many people with ADHD subconsciously seek out chaos, conflict, toxic relationships, or emotionally unavailable partners. It isn't out of desire, but as a way of seeking out neurological stimulation. Lindsey discusses how ADHD can intensely heighten feelings of rejection, create a cycle of emotional highs and lows in relationships, often leading to toxic dynamics, chronic arguing, and feelings of inadequacy or isolation. She unpacks the difference between laziness and ADHD Paralysis, explaining the brain science behind task initiation struggles and why shame is often misdirected. Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, have a partner or friend who struggles with it, or simply relate to the patterns of emotional burnout, impulsive decisions, or feeling like you're “too much” in relationships, this episode is a lifeline. Lindsey encourages self-compassion and offers tangible insight to help you understand your brain, regulate your emotions, and build healthier, more stable connections without sacrificing your joy.

Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 11 and later with end-stage renal disease, Suzanne drew on her personal experience to write an MSc thesis exploring the lived challenges of adhering to a highly restrictive dialysis diet. Following her kidney transplant, she was struck by the lack of clear nutrition guidance for transplant recipients, making the transition to managing her new kidney particularly difficult. Determined to fill this gap, she conducted research to develop evidence-based dietary guidelines, which she published in Transplant International and presented at the European Keto Live Conference in Switzerland.

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___People with ADHD are built for the future of work. While everyone else worries about AI taking over jobs, we're the ones who'll figure out what to do with it next.Muxin Li studied at UVA and Rice, but her real education came from following a winding path through anthropology, teaching, journalism, and now AI. Today, she's building tools designed to reduce cognitive overload and help people focus on what actually matters. Diagnosed with ADHD in business school after struggling through chaotic team meetings, Muxin brings a neurodivergent lens to the future of tech—one that sees ADHD not as a barrier, but as a design blueprint.In this episode, Muxin and Tracy explore why the traits we're told to tone down—intuition, creativity, nonlinear thinking—are exactly what the world needs more of. They dive into how ADHD brains connect dots in ways others can't, why we're naturally drawn to entrepreneurship (hello, 50-60% of founders), and how our bottom-up processing gives us superpowers in an AI-driven world.Muxin also shares a profound synchronicity experience that shifted her understanding of intuition, love, and possibility. From Carl Jung's scarab beetle to her own moment of cosmic clarity, she explores how tuning into that deeper intelligence might be the key to creating the future we actually want to live in. Plus, she breaks down the AI tools that are actually helping her manage the chaos of modern life—and previews Maestro, the project management tool she's building for brains like ours.Resources:Website: https://www.muxinli.com X: https://x.com/muxin_li LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/muxinli 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?

On this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions Dr. Karlfeldt is joined by Rick Hill and we hear Rick's remarkable cancer survival story that spans over four decades and represents a powerful testament to alternative cancer treatments. Diagnosed with cancer and initially treated at the prestigious Mayo Clinic, Rick underwent grueling surgeries that left him questioning the conventional medical approach. A pivotal moment came when he received a letter from John Valentine that convinced him to leave the Mayo Clinic and seek alternative treatments in Tijuana, Mexico. Despite initial skepticism about the dramatic lifestyle changes required, Rick committed to this new path that would ultimately save his life. Central to Rick's recovery was his connection to Dr. John Richardson and the Richardson Protocol, which successfully treated approximately 4,000 patients, many in stage four cancer. Rick criticizes the medical establishment for revoking Dr. Richardson's medical license and imprisoning him despite his remarkable success rate. The treatment protocol centered around vitamin B17 (Laetrile) and other natural extracts, combined with comprehensive lifestyle changes including colonics, fasting, juicing, and strict organic diets. Rick emphasizes how these treatments worked synergistically to support his immune system rather than simply targeting the cancer with toxic drugs. The journey required tremendous personal commitment and lifestyle transformation. Rick describes the challenges of adapting to a completely new diet and treatment regimen, acknowledging the initial difficulty and boredom that came with such drastic changes. He had to navigate skepticism from family members and the medical establishment while maintaining his commitment to alternative treatments. Rick also mentions his involvement in what he calls "low-key smuggling" to obtain necessary treatments across borders, highlighting the regulatory obstacles faced by those seeking alternative cancer therapies. Throughout his interview, Rick strongly criticizes the pharmaceutical industry's financial motivations for suppressing alternative treatments and the medical establishment's focus on drugs rather than immune system support. He expresses optimism about current political developments, particularly mentioning Bobby Kennedy's efforts toward "chemical freedom" and crossing party lines to address these issues. Rick emphasizes that his long-term survival demonstrates the effectiveness of alternative approaches when patients have the persistence and commitment to maintain healthy lifestyle changes. Rick's story extends beyond personal survival to advocacy and education. He authored a book titled "Too Young to Die" to raise awareness about alternative cancer treatments and continues to support other patients seeking similar paths. He expresses interest in collaborating with healthcare providers to help patients access alternative treatments and emphasizes the critical importance of community support, freedom of choice in cancer treatment, and the need for persistence in maintaining the lifestyle changes that support long-term cancer survival. His four-decade journey serves as both inspiration and practical guidance for others facing similar diagnoses.Rick Hill left the Mayo Clinic after receiving a letter from John Valentine and sought alternative cancer treatments in Tijuana, Mexico, leading to over 40 years of cancer-free survival.Dr. John Richardson successfully treated approximately 4,000 cancer patients (many stage four) with the Richardson Protocol using vitamin B17 (Laetrile) and natural extracts, but had his medical license revoked and was imprisoned by the medical establishment.Rick's recovery required dramatic lifestyle changes including strict organic diets, colonics, fasting, juicing, and complete commitment to natural treatments that support the immune system rather than toxic drugs.He criticizes the pharmaceutical industry's financial motivations for suppressing alternative treatments and expresses optimism about current political efforts, particularly Bobby Kennedy's work toward "chemical freedom."Rick authored the book "Too Young to Die" to raise awareness about alternative cancer treatments and continues advocating for patient freedom of choice and community support in cancer treatment decisions.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

In this episode of Curing with Sound, we hear the remarkable story of Monica Russell, who has lived with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) for nearly 30 years. Diagnosed at age nine, Monica pursued a wide range of conventional and alternative treatments before participating in a focused ultrasound clinical trial at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto. Following two noninvasive treatments, she experienced immediate relief from depression and a sustained 35–40% reduction in OCD symptoms over the following year and a half. Monica shares a candid account of her struggles with debilitating OCD, including the painful compulsions and time-consuming rituals that affected her personal and professional life. Her experience offers valuable insight into the challenges of living with treatment-resistant OCD and the life-changing potential of focused ultrasound as a breakthrough therapy for psychiatric conditions. Discussion highlights: Focused Ultrasound as a Treatment Option: The episode outlines how focused ultrasound helped reduce Monica's depression and OCD symptoms when other therapies had limited effect. Advancing Research Through Clinical Trials: Monica's story underscores the critical role of clinical trials in evaluating new treatment options for patients with treatment-resistant OCD.

Laura Delano, was diagnosed as having bipolar disorder when she was a teenager and would go on to spent 13 years receiving psychiatric care, both as inpatient and outpatient. In the process, she accumulated more and diagnoses, and was given more and more drugs. But - as she explains in her new book: Unshrunk – How the mental health industry took over my life and my fight to get it back, published by Monoray - there was a problem, Laura wasn't getting better. Despite being a high achieving student for whom it had once appeared a glittering future awaited, her life had fallen apart. She had dropped out of university, was unable to hold down a job and had tried to kill herself. But then one day Laura had a life-changing epiphany - was it possible that rather than the care and medications she was receiving helping her, might they actually be causing her problems? Gradually over several years, she weaned herself off all her medication – no easy process given the withdrawal effect of many psychiatric drugs . But the impact was transformative and today Laura has completely turned her life around. So what went wrong with Laura's care? And why was the medical system unable to recognise how the treatment was making her worse not better?

Send us a textWhat happens when autism representation meets reality? Kaelynn Partlow pulls back the curtain on life before, during, and after Netflix's "Love on the Spectrum" in this candid conversation about authenticity and advocacy in the public eye.Diagnosed with autism at age 10 after years of medical professionals dismissing her mother's concerns ("In the nineties, girls couldn't catch autism," she jokes), Kaylin's journey from struggling student to lead therapist at Project Hope showcases the power of proper identification and support. Now working with autistic clients while managing her growing social media presence, she navigates the complexities of being both clinician and community member with remarkable insight.The conversation reveals surprising truths about overnight fame - the eight-hour filming days, the unexpected social media explosion, and the loneliness of an experience "only you have, by yourself." Most poignantly, Kaelynn articulates the challenge of forming genuine connections when followers seek advice rather than friendship: "There's a power imbalance. When we meet up, you will want something from me." This reality led her to write "Life on the Bridge: Linking my World to Yours as an Autistic Therapist," offering practical guidance to the many families who reach out for support.Between discussions of sensory accommodations (fidget toys, headphones, earplugs) and behind-the-scenes television realities (being excluded from award ceremonies despite the show's success), emerges a portrait of someone determined to create meaningful change through authentic representation. As Kaelynn transitions from direct service to more conceptual advocacy work, her perspective remains invaluable for anyone seeking to understand autism beyond stereotypes and simplifications.Connect with Kaelynn on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube to follow her continuing journey advocating for authentic autism representation and understanding.Support the show
