Powerhouse Entrepreneurs Elena Cardone and Natalie Dawson Reveal How Building an Empire Starts With Your Mind

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Entrepreneurs and business leaders Elena Cardone and Natalie Dawson share how understanding the mind can change the way people see themselves, respond to challenges and communicate with others in an episode of Keep It Brief with Natalie Dawson. The conversation features Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health by L. Ron Hubbard and the personal impact both women say the book has had on their lives.
“The greatest asset you have is your mind,” Cardone says. “Dianetics is the book that really changed everything about my life. My communication also evolved as I began to understand myself better.”
A key concept in the episode is the reactive mind, which L. Ron Hubbard describes in Dianetics as the part of the mind that records painful experiences and can influence later reactions.
“There’s two parts of the mind. The analytical mind and the reactive mind,” Cardone explains. Learning about the reactive mind, she says, helped her make sense of reactions she couldn’t explain. “I knew I shouldn’t say something illogical, but it would blurt out of my mouth and cause me problems. This would happen over and over,” she recalls.
Cardone also describes how she learned to recognize critical thoughts about herself. “Any time I have an invalidating thought about myself, I first recognize that’s not me,” she says. “I have a strict policy now. I do not invalidate myself.”
Dawson offers her own perspective on the book, telling Cardone, “I read Dianetics based on your recommendation, and it entirely transformed my life.”
Through their experiences, Cardone and Dawson offer readers insight into how understanding the mind can support personal and professional success, from recognizing patterns in their reactions and improving communication to understanding the habits and responses that shape their lives.
