What is an Instinctual Stack? Do you know yours? We all have three instincts. None of us are absent one. However, one does tend to be dominant. But what are instincts and how do they influence how each type shows up in the world? In today's episode, we revisit our conversation with Elan Benami, creator of the EnneaApp and author of Enneagram Patterns & Poetics, to provide you with a great overview of Instincts, Subtypes, and the Instinctual Stack and how they can play out in your personal and professional life. About Elan: Elan is an LPC with a MA in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology and BA in Philosophy. In addition to his own private counseling practice, Elan is the Clinical Director of People House - a non-profit that provides affordable counseling in Colorado. Elan was introduced to the Enneagram in 2008 by his first therapist. He then did intense studying with Lori Ohlson, who was his supervisor. Claudio Naranjo was Lori's primary teacher, so there is a deep kinship with his work. Other major Enneagram teachers who have shaped Elan include Helen Palmer, Russ Hudson, Don Riso, and Sandra Maitri. Elan and Lori Ohlson have co-facilitated many Enneagram classes/workshops, most of them in the narrative tradition. Through Lori's Enneagram material (of over 25 years of teaching the Enneagram), Elan created the EnneaApp, initially for the purpose of having something to quickly reference between sessions. Through the years, he has adapted the content to be more reflective of his own experience while also preserving Lori's lineage. The app has over 1.5 million downloads.
Elan Gelfand is a 20-year-old podcast host, mindset enthusiast, and the driving force behind the "Abundant Thinking" podcast. Inspired by his mother's resilience through challenging times, Elan channels his passion for learning, personal development, and financial independence into creating environments where wisdom from all walks of life is shared. Despite his young age, he's already amassed over 100 episodes focused on turning ordinary mindsets into extraordinary breakthroughs, tapping into deep conversations with high-achieving individuals to uncover the mindset frameworks behind success. With a relentless optimism and a commitment to consistency, Elan brings fresh perspectives on growth, pressure, and carving out one's purpose. Takeaways: Purpose is Personal and Evolving: Elan's story demonstrates that finding your “why” often comes from personal hardship and a desire to support others—particularly family. Staying connected to this purpose provides the resilience needed to weather challenges. Consistency Breeds Progress: Both Elan and Mick stress that success isn't about quick wins but steady action. Setting contracts with yourself and sticking to long-term goals helps turn vision into reality—even when immediate results aren't visible. Learning is a Superpower: Elan's journey shows the importance of being curious, seeking wisdom from others, and constantly asking questions. Whether in leadership or personal growth, learning from experience and from mentors is key. Sound Bites: “I think that I am able to dictate the results of my life... although I have zero proof, it's my obligation to help my mom.” – Elan Gelfand “Consistency creates discipline, and discipline is what makes you successful. Right? Especially over the long term.” – Elan Gelfand “If your presence doesn't make a difference, your absence won't either.” – Mick Hunt Connect & Discover Elan: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elan.gelfand/reels/ Spotify Link: https://open.spotify.com/show/1lekQaJQnRGImBbsV9K6tA Apple Podcasts Link: @AbundantThinking

On the day of launch, the card game Exploding Kittens raised millions on Kickstarter, and went on to be one of the most successful campaigns in the history of the platform. In this episode Exploding Kittens Co-Founder Elan Lee shares what led up to that experience, how it felt to see those numbers continue to grow, and how the world of tabletop games has changed in the decades since that initial campaign. Elan is as great a story teller as he is a game designer and business leader and I know this episode will make you smile and think in equal measure.The Innovation Day Podcast is hosted by Neil Follett and produced by Chess Originals.
This week, in episode 263, we bring you another 21 Hats Brainstorm. Elan Daniel, who started a small-batch hummus business inspired by a memorable experience in Israel, is trying to figure out his best path to long-term viability. So far, he's been selling at farmers markets and direct to consumers, making all of the hummus and all of the deliveries himself. Since February, his sales have been growing between 5 and 10 percent a week, but his growth is constrained by his refusal to use preservatives, which adds flavor but limits the product's shelf life. So how should he proceed: Should he sell to speciality markets and restaurants? Should he try to sell to Whole Foods? Should he open his own hummus restaurant, or hummusiya? Should he try to introduce his hummus to the uninitiated or should he focus on connoisseurs? To help Elan think through his options, we convened a panel of 21 Hats Brainstormers and recorded this podcast episode. It's brought to you by New Bridge Studios, which helps companies, creators, and causes connect their story to the bottom line. And by the way, if you have a challenge you'd like to put before a panel of business owners in our next Brainstorm, shoot me an email: loren@21hats.com.

About ElanElan Lee (@elanlee) is the co-creator and chief executive officer of Exploding Kittens, a leading gaming and entertainment company. Under his leadership, Exploding Kittens has expanded its portfolio to nearly 30 different games with more than 60 million games sold in more than 50 countries since its founding in 2015.Before founding Exploding Kittens, Lee was the chief design officer at Xbox Entertainment Studios, where he led the Interactive Entertainment Portfolio. Prior to that, he was the founder and chief creative officer of Fourth Wall Studios and co-founder of 42 Entertainment. He began his career at Microsoft Games Studios as a lead designer on the original Xbox.Lee has won a Primetime Emmy for the series Dirty Work; Game Innovator of the Year for Exploding Kittens; a Peabody Award for the world's first alternate reality game, The Beast; and an IndieCade Trailblazer Award for a distinguished career in interactive entertainment, among others.In this episode, Elan and I discuss into how his company built their rigorous playtesting culture, why marketing is inseparable from product design, and how pitching to Target and Walmart is just another kind of game. Whether you're trying to break into retail, sharpen your viral marketing instincts, or simply design games people can't stop playing, this conversation will give you both insight and inspirationAh-ha! Justin's Takeaways* Execution is the Superpower: From manufacturing to social media strategy, Elan's team treats execution as part of game design. Elan explains why 80% of his company are marketers, producers, and logistics experts, all aligned around making games irresistible to discover and play.* Marketing is Product Design: At Exploding Kittens, marketers have veto power. A game might be hilarious to play in the room, but if it can't be captured in a five-second social video, the game never makes it out of the room. Elan shares how his team tests hundreds of games at design retreats, then filters them through a marketing lens to ensure the product is not only fun but also instantly communicable and shareable.* Play to Sell: When pitching to Target or Walmart, Elan doesn't “sell” games—he plays them. He gets buyers into the experience, proving the fun directly. This approach yields extraordinary success rates, with most of Exploding Kittens' pitched games picked up for retail. Elan reframes pitching as playing with new friends, making joy the ultimate sales tool.Show Notes"She said, ‘I just want you to take a moment and take a breath and realize you built this thing.'" 00:04:46It's easy as creators to focus on what's broken or what needs fixing (I know I fall into this mindset myself) but sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is step back, practice gratitude, and recognize how far you've come. Elan's wife reminded him of this during a board meeting, and it's a lesson all of us can use to cultivate more joy in our creative journey."It doesn't matter if it's the best game in the world. If they don't know how to sell it, it is not worth wasting our time on." 00:15:15Sometimes as game designers, we feel like the job ends once the mechanics click. Marketing can seem like an afterthought, but the truth is that it's part of product design. Elan bakes this into his process by giving his marketing team veto power at design retreats. It's a powerful reminder: if you want your game to succeed, you must think not only about how it plays but also about how it will be discovered. For Elan, that means asking whether a game can be sold in five seconds on social media. He shares stories of projects he loved that never made it to market because his team couldn't find a way to sell them. This strategy is tied directly to reaching the casual gameplay audience, which demands this very specific approach."All I do is I talk to my friends about how much fun they are about to have, and then I prove it." 00:32:25Elan's approach to pitching games is radically simple: instead of talking, play the game and let the experience do the work. Whether you're pitching to Target or teaching your prototype at a convention, the best way to win people over is to let them feel the joy for themselves. Hearing this made me rethink my own approach, as I've often been guilty of trying to “sell” too much instead of simply playing.“[Poetry for Neanderthals] is, in its purest form, a tool set to let you talk to other people in the room." 01:04:01Elan describes his games as tool sets that let players entertain each other, which is why games like Poetry for Neanderthals or Codenames can stay fun even after dozens of plays. My philosophy takes a different angle: I aim to design games that last a lifetime, so my team thinks deeply about what the 100th play will feel like, something Elan admits he never has to think about with his own games, designed for his casual gaming audience.Whether your players stick around for ten plays or a hundred, the real secret is the same: Whether they're crushing their opponents with clever plays or laughing together as they stumble through ridiculous challenges—great games create space for players to shine.

IS THE LET THEM THEORY RIGHT FOR YOU? In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I host an open debate about The LET THEM Theory by Mel Robbins. I'm joined by Carly O'Donoghue, who loves the book, and Elan Silver, who has a few issues with it. Together, we unpack the real-world relevance of this viral mindset theory for podiatrists and business owners alike. ORDER The LET THEM Theory. What is the LET THEM Theory? At its core, Robbins encourages us to stop trying to control other people's reactions. Whether it's a patient, staff member, or family member—"let them" react how they want. It's not your job to manage their emotions. Instead, you focus on your own intentions, values, and next actions. The Clinical & Business Application Carly shared how the book can help you have difficult conversations with confidence, whether with a colleague or a parent at school. Elan, however, raised a valid concern: the theory might be misapplied by those lacking emotional intelligence or maturity. For example, avoiding hard conversations altogether under the guise of “letting them” could actually harm relationships or performance. Leadership Through Boundaries As business owners, we often avoid giving feedback to staff or raising issues with patients because we fear conflict. The LET THEM Theory reminds us that their reaction isn't ours to manage; we just need to communicate with kindness and clarity. Letting go of that fear can significantly reduce stress and increase productivity. The Other Side of the Coin: Let Me We also explored the often-overlooked "Let Me" side of the theory. Let them behave how they want, but let me decide how I respond. Let me reset expectations. Let me move on. Let me lead. This is where the real power lies. It's not about passivity; it's about reclaiming your focus. Should You Read the Book? Carly says yes, especially if you're constantly people-pleasing or feeling emotionally drained. Elan recommends it too, but with caution. Not every reader will interpret it in a healthy way. As for me, I deliberately did not read the book before this episode, so that I could stay neutral, but now I'm convinced it's worth opening up, even just one page at a time. Listen now, and let us know if you are on Team Carly, Team Elan, or somewhere in between. If you have any questions for Carly or Elan, please email me at tyson@podiatrylegends.com. ORDER The LET THEM Theory HERE Don't forget to look at my UPCOMING EVENTS. Do You Want A Little Business Guidance?

Statt einen „herrschaftsfreien Diskurs“ als eine Weiterentwicklung der Demokratie zu wagen, kultiviert die mediale Politöffentlichkeit voller Elan einen „herrschaftlichen Monolog“ aus den vordemokratischen Zeiten. Dazu gehört ein staatsmächtig gelenktes Ignorieren, Auslachen und sogar Bestrafen von Stimmen, in denen die Meinungsvielfalt und Demokratie bereichernde Diskussionsbereitschaft über die systemimmanenten Fehlentwicklungen lebendig gehalten werden.

Annette Landau und Martin Rohr renovieren das alte Haus von Annettes Urgrossmutter. Alles im Sinne der Nachhaltigkeit. So bauen sie eine gebrauchte Designerküche ein. Und das Spezielle: Sie wollen ein extravagantes Farbkonzept. Die Wohnung soll farblich zum Dschungel werden. Während sich die meisten Menschen mehr Wohnfläche wünschen, ziehen Annette Landau und Martin Rohr in eine viel kleinere Wohnung. Die letzten 15 Jahre haben sie auf 150 Quadratmetern gelebt. Die neue Wohnung hat 90 Quadratmeter. Sie befindet sich im Zürcher Stadtquartier Wiedikon, im Haus von Annettes Urgrossmutter. Noch gehört das Haus ihrem Vater. Doch Annette übernimmt ab nun dessen Verwaltung. Zu Beginn war noch nicht klar, ob das Haus abgerissen oder saniert werden soll. Das Baubüro «InSitu», welches sich auf nachhaltigen Umbau spezialisiert hat, rechnet ihnen vor: Ein Umbau erzeuge fast dreimal weniger CO2 als der Bau eines neuen Hauses. So machen sie sich mit viel Elan und wildem Farbkonzept an den Umbau ihrer Wohnung. In einem späteren Schritt wollen sie das ganze Haus sanieren – ohne dass bestehende Mieter der anderen Stockwerke ausziehen müssen. Die alte Gasheizung soll weichen und einer Erdsonde Platz machen. Obwohl diese zehnmal teurer ist. 136kg Farbe vermalen die Handwerker. Ob es den neuen Bewohnern bunt besser gefällt?

Schreiner Daniel Moser hat einen grossen Traum: Er will sein Haus selbst bauen. Mit seiner chinesischen Frau Pauline und Tochter Tanya zog er vor vier Jahren von Schanghai zurück nach Würenlos AG. Bis ihr Holzhaus einzugsbereit ist, wohnen sie im Haus von Daniels betagten Eltern. Am Dorfrand von Würenlos AG steht eine kleine Parzelle von 704 Quadratmetern. Daniel Moser hat sie als Erbvorbezug von seinen Eltern erhalten. Seit er ein Kind ist, will er ein Haus bauen. Mit Eigenkapital und Eigenleistung gehen Mosers ans Werk – er ist Bauherr und Architekt in einer Person. Mit viel Elan beginnen sie. Und stossen bald auch an ihre Grenzen. Daniel wird krank. Nach langem Werweissen erhält er die Diagnose: Hasenpest. Dank Antibiotika geht es ihm schnell besser und er kann weiterbauen. Die Schlafzimmer im neuen Haus entsprechen der gesetzlichen Mindestgrösse von zehn Quadratmeter. Badewanne brauchen sie nicht und auch vier Zimmer seien genug. Viele Herausforderungen warten auf sie: Streit mit Nachbarn, schmale Quartierstrassen, zu viel Regen oder das Leben in einem Mehrgenerationenhaushalt.
