Having ADD or ADHD is a gift, not a curse. Hear from people all around the globe, from every walk of life, in every profession, from Rock Stars to CEOs, from Teachers to Politicians, who have learned how to unlock the gifts of their ADD and ADHD diagnosis, and use it to their personal and professional advantage, to build businesses, become millionaires, or simply better their lives. Our guest today, Maya Salwen is a transformation consultant at Accenture where she helps organizations navigate complex change.

It's been so long since I've uploaded lol. BUT ENJOY THIS FUNNY FEW MINUTES OF A GEN Z kid trying to explain BRAIN ROT.
As Gen Z cements its role as the cultural vanguard and Gen Alpha begins to assert its voice, brands face mounting pressure to not only keep pace but to actively shape youth identity. With social commerce booming and physical retail undergoing reinvention, staying relevant means delivering experiences as dynamic as the customers themselves. One stat alone says it all: after Kendrick Lamar sparked a flare jeans frenzy, American Eagle saw a 125% spike in Google searches and 25% more store traffic in just days.So how does a legacy retailer like American Eagle Outfitters keep its edge with a generation that swipes faster than it shops? And what does it take to not only follow culture—but lead it?On this episode of Retail Refined, host Melissa Gonzalez sits down with Craig Brommers, Chief Marketing Officer at American Eagle, for a deep dive into loyalty, culture, and the art of speaking to multiple generations at once. From TikTok virality to in-store innovation, Craig shares how American Eagle is turning its 50-year playbook into a blueprint for the next era of retail.Key topics of discussion…How American Eagle uses feedback loops—from 35,000 Gen Z store associates to a 2,000-person youth panel—to track trends in real time and adjust marketing and product strategies accordingly.Why the “Lived In” store concept is the most successful in American Eagle's 48-year history, blending elevated design with community-driven experiences to drive conversion and loyalty.The launch of the “Live Your Life” affiliate program, a bid to transform creators into digital store associates and cement deeper bonds with youth consumers in the social commerce age.Craig Brommers is a seasoned global marketing executive with deep expertise in brand expansion across geographic, digital, and category dimensions. He has led marketing at top retail brands including American Eagle, Gap, Abercrombie & Fitch, Calvin Klein, and Speedo, consistently driving growth through purpose-driven strategies and a strong command of data-informed decision-making. An MBA graduate from UCLA's Anderson School, Craig is known for building high-performing, cross-functional teams and balancing global consistency with local market relevance.
Before we dive into one of the most creative plush lines I've ever seen, we need to talk about something serious — TARIFFS.In this episode of Making It in The Toy Industry, I'm kicking things off with an urgent update about the current U.S.–China tariff situation and how it could affect your toy business. I'm sharing what I would do right now if I were launching a toy brand from scratch and why diversifying your manufacturing isn't optional anymore, it's essential.Then, I take you inside my exclusive Toy Fair interview with Lisa Doiron, VP of Global Brand Marketing at Basic Fun. Lisa introduced me to ThreadZ, a limited-edition plush line that taps into Gen Alpha's love of individuality and that “get-it-before-it's-gone” energy. ThreadZ is made with excess fabrics, which means each drop is limited-run and totally unique. Designed to feel fashion-forward and one-of-a-kind, this plush line taps perfectly into Gen Alpha's craving for self-expression. It's also a brilliant example of how big brands like Basic Fun can rethink traditional production models in smart, sustainable, and trend-savvy ways.You'll hear why it's time to rethink your manufacturing game, how to make your toy line tariff-proof and flexible, what Gen Alpha really wants, and how you can steal a genius small-batch strategy from a big brand and make it your own.If you're ready to future-proof your toy biz and get inspired by one of the freshest plush concepts on the market, this episode is for you!

In this episode of the e-commerce marketing podcast, host Arlen Robinson speaks with Nikki Lindgren, founder of Pinnock Digital, about the booming landscape of TikTok advertising, particularly for beauty brands. They discuss Nikki's journey to founding her agency, the importance of authenticity in marketing, and the strategies that lead to successful TikTok campaigns. The conversation also covers common pitfalls brands face in TikTok advertising and the creative approaches that can enhance ad performance. Nikki shares insights on the evolving nature of influencer partnerships and the significance of setting clear expectations with clients. Key Episode Takeaways: TikTok is a viable channel for brands now and in the future. Nikki's journey from corporate to agency life highlights the importance of adaptability. The beauty niche has seen significant success on TikTok due to its visual nature. Brands targeting Gen Z and Gen Alpha benefit from TikTok's low-cost advertising. High average order value products may not perform well on TikTok. The halo effect of TikTok can boost brand awareness even without direct sales. Authenticity and creativity are key to successful TikTok marketing. Low-fi, user-generated content resonates best with TikTok audiences. Clear expectations with clients are essential for successful campaigns. Brands must diversify their marketing strategies beyond paid ads.

Her deep love of the outdoors has shaped her journey—from Girl Scout to wilderness guide, outdoor retail expert, camp director, and now Senior Director of Program and Training—fueling her mission to empower the next generation of leaders.What You'll Learn in This Episode:0:00 Introduction1:05 Madison's Leadership Start5:43 Girl Scout Journey9:00 Why for Girl Scouts11:51 Parent's Leadership Thoughts 14:53 Biggest Challenges16:37 GenZ Impact20:31 Gen Alpha Impact24:26 Programs29:08 How to Support Girl Scouts31:16 20-Something Self AdviceQuotable Moments:“Nothing challenges you more as a leader than taking a group of people out into the wilderness where you're in survival mode.”“We need to teach young girls how to be confident and have the skills needed to live in this world.”“Who do you think runs this whole camp?”“All the things that parents are looking for their child to have are within Girl Scouts.”“GenZ is craving that connection but they are so busy!”"There's a trend in Gen Alpha research that shows that persistent sadness and hopelessness in teenage girls increased from 36% in 2011 to 57% in 2021. (CDC)"“In prior years the #1 response was mom as a child's key role model.”“We are trying to create a space for every girl or everyone who associates as a girl or associates with the Girl Scout experience.”“We're really creating a space where girls can come and be themselves as nurture that and give them the skills to be resilient, be confident when they walk into any room, and she knows that she belongs and can succeed. Having personal growth and a strong sense of self that can keep her emotionally anchored through both good and tough times.”“Also girls get a bigger understanding of the world – a global element.”“Buy Girl Scout cookies!” “Happy Birthday, Madison!”Three Episode Takeaways:1. It's important for girls to have interaction with women in strong leadership positions. 2. Parenting is challenging. The encroachment of technology and the belief that the world is unsafe and increasingly divided can lead to parental fear and isolation. The focus is on family and want their kids to develop skills, and new styles of leadership. Most important is having the child be their authentic self. Mental wellness is a primary concern. 3. Research indicates that people know what Girl Scouts is but they don't know what Girl Scouts do outside cookies. We have a lot to learn from GenZ. The data indicates: strong entrepreneurship, high anxiety, skepticism, and high agency (“I can do this”). They crave downtime and the ability to do nothing and want to build relationships/friendships. Gen Alpha is all in on technology as a way to learn. They aspire to be influencers, do not see mom as a role model and are looking.

"Minecraft: The Movie. Você já deve ter visto nas redes que isso não é um filme, é um evento pra Gen Alpha. Pois é, o que deveria ser mais uma adaptação de game nas telonas se transformou em um fenômeno social, as sessões lotadas vibram com a participação da plateia. Em vez de assistir passivamente, adolescentes dão risada, gritam, filmam e criam conteúdo, fazendo do cinema um espaço físico de interação digital”. “A nova temporada brasileira da peça Wicked, impulsionada pelo sucesso da adaptação cinematográfica da obra, gerou discussões sobre o comportamento do público em espetáculos musicais. Fãs se pronunciaram nas redes exigindo respeito aos artistas e ao público, pedindo silêncio da parcela da plateia que parece ter atrapalhado a experiência com cantoria e gritos (...) a produção do espetáculo também tomou providências diante do ocorrido, passando a reproduzir um aviso sonoro que instrui o público sobre boas práticas como membros da plateia”.Nós vimos esses textos, que respectivamente são da newsletter Trend Radar e de um post da Ebac e ficamos pensando: será que a gente desaprendeu a viver experiências coletivas? É um efeito da pandemia? Das redes sociais? Da obsessão por hittar, por viralizar a qualquer custo? São muitas camadas em torno dessa mudança de comportamento. Para conversar sobre ele, chamamos a maravilhosa Beatriz Guarezi, da bits do brands, para bater esse papo com a gente. ------------------APOIE O PODCAST! www.apoia.se/donasdaptoda-----O Donas da P* Toda é um podcast independente.

From middle schoolers riffing on school lunch to kids interviewing political figures, podcasting is no longer just for adults. With high-end mics, massive TikTok followings, and brand deals from major companies, tween podcast hosts are building real media platforms from their bedrooms and local studios.New York Magazine's EJ Dickson joins me to break down who the major players are in this growing space, including the MD Foodie Boyz, SaltyBoys, GSD Nation, the LOL Pod, and more. These tween stars have loyal fan bases, viral moments, and increasingly, the attention of advertisers looking to reach Gen Z and Gen Alpha audiences. We examine how kid-led podcasts are mirroring the formats and attitudes of older influencers, from Joe Rogan to the Paul brothers. And how, as more kids turn the mic on themselves and start broadcasting their opinions, jokes, and hot takes to the world, it's reshaping what media looks like for the next generation. EJ and I discuss how this trend took off, where it might be going, and what it says about the future of content creation.Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.usermag.coSubscribe to my YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TaylorLorenz Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/taylorlorenz Follow me on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/taylorlorenz.bsky.social

In the second half of her conversation, Erika Ayers Badan—CEO of Food52, former CEO of Barstool Sports, board leader, media powerhouse, and author of _No One Cares About Your Career_—lets us behind the curtain. From negotiating screen time as a kid to rewriting the rules as a high-profile executive, she reflects on how grit, autonomy, and unfiltered curiosity shaped everything—from her parenting to her management style. She shares why she no longer chases titles, what failure really teaches us, and why today's “toxic culture” talk often needs more clarity than cancellation. For Gen Xers raising kids, leading teams, or just trying to keep their values intact in a noisy world, this episode is the deep breath you didn't know you needed.>>The Original Streaming Negotiation“My brother and I shared one hour of TV a week. That's how I learned to negotiate.”Erika reflects on the creative, disciplined upbringing that shaped her independence—and how it made her a better leader, dealmaker, and parent.>>Titles Are Overrated. Impact Isn't.“I cared about titles in my 20s. Now I care about purview.”She explains why chasing titles is a trap—and why real career growth is measured in responsibility, resilience, and reach.>>Fail Always Mode“If you feel like you're failing, it means you care—and you're trying something new.”Erika breaks down why failure isn't just tolerable—it's necessary. And why she rewards effort over perfection every time.>>Culture > Buzzwords“I'm allergic to gossip, inertia, and pontificating.”From toxic culture to real collaboration, Erika shares her no-BS filter for building teams that do the work and actually like doing it.>>Gen Alpha, Gen X, and the Parenting Gap“I worry their advantages are actually disadvantages.”She gets honest about parenting kids in a hyper-stimulated world—and why she's racing the clock to instill resilience before the clay hardens._____________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Erika Ayers Badan --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.
