  From the Archieves Relationships, divorce and love with Keren Eldad

  Aug 5, 202641 minS1

  Certainty can feel safe, but it can also make you blind. Tonight, I’m joined by coach and speaker Keren Eldad to talk about the moments that flip your story, from a TED Talk lesson on assumptions to the real-world truths of love, abuse, and starting over. We get into the Tina Turner documentary and what it means to survive an emotionally abusive and physically abusive relationship, especially when people around you “can’t tell” anything is wrong. Keren shares the early red flags she wishes everyone would take seriously, why insulting you is never “small,” and how self-worth is the difference between staying stuck and getting free. We also talk about why “settling” is not love, no matter what age pressure says. Then we shift to practical dating advice you can use right now: how to believe in soulmates without ignoring reality, why soulmate relationships are supposed to feel easy, and how to stop doing all the heavy lifting when you’re dating. We even go into pandemic dating, online dating on Tinder, and why a mindset shift can open doors that feel closed. Plus, Keren breaks down how to land a TED Talk, pitch your idea, and rehearse so hard your nerves do not run the show. If you want grounded relationship coaching, real talk about resilience, and a reminder that love can find you at any age, hit play.

  From Trapeze School To Therapy Through Creativity

  Jul 22, 202637 min

  She got sent to trapeze school at three years old, and somehow that makes perfect sense once you meet Mari Riesberg. Mari is a creativity cultivator, licensed professional counselor, and the host of the Sustaining Creativity Podcast, and our conversation turns “being creative” from a vague idea into something you can actually use on a hard day. We talk about what it’s like to grow up performing, what the “starving artist” life really looks like, and why it’s okay to want stability without giving up your creative identity. Mari shares how her path moved from theater and music into psychology through dance movement therapy, and why creativity still belongs in the room when we’re talking about mental health, stress relief, and self-trust. You’ll hear practical ideas you can try immediately, like color walks, tiny playful rituals with food or clothes, and borrowing a little structure from childhood play to make adult life feel lighter. We also go there on the big stuff: turning 40 in the middle of chaos, feeling off the timeline society hands you, and navigating questions about relationships, fertility, and what you still want next. Mari explains how creativity can help you “get out of the mess” by shifting the lens from judgment to curiosity, treating setbacks like plot twists, and even gamifying the obstacles in front of you. If you want creative self-care that feels real, grounded, and doable, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

  Healthy Relationships Start With You

  Jul 14, 202632 minS4

  Your childhood “village” does not just raise you, it trains you for every relationship you will ever try to build. Carlene sits down with Michael T. Brown, LPC, a licensed counselor and leadership consultant based in Virginia, to talk about how faith communities, family influence, and early belonging shape identity, purpose, and the way we connect with partners, friends, and coworkers. We get real about technology and modern dating culture too. Social media and dating apps can introduce you to people faster than ever, but Michael challenges us to remember the basics: trust, communication, presence, and people skills. If a phone stays on the table, so does emotional distance. We unpack what it looks like to “use the technology, not let the technology use you,” and why healthy relationships still demand face-to-face connection, clear boundaries, and the ability to hold an honest conversation. Then we move into mental health, therapy, and trauma healing with compassion and practicality. Michael explains why awareness is the first step toward change, why the better question is often “what happened to you,” and how counseling helps you process pain without getting stuck in it. We also explore mentors, books, and imagination as sources of hope and vision, plus the leadership mindset behind real success: goals rooted in purpose, a supportive community, and doing the heavy lifting for your own life. If you enjoy thoughtful relationship advice, counseling insights, and grounded conversations about purpose and connection, subscribe to Diva Tonight, share this episode with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

  Comedy As A Second Act For Women In Their 40s

  Jul 8, 202645 min

  Comedy isn’t reserved for the loudest person at the party, and it’s definitely not something you have to “be born with.” We sit down with Lynn Harris, creator of Gold Comedy and a longtime journalist, to break down what being professionally funny really takes and why so many capable people talk themselves out of trying it. The big takeaway: comedy is learnable, and the work is often less about forcing jokes and more about finding what’s already true and funny about you. We get into the hidden value of stand-up for women in their 40s and beyond, especially if you’re craving a creative reset, a side hustle, or a full career pivot. Lynn explains how comedy mechanics build real-world skills like writing sharper, thinking faster, reading the room, and staying calm when things go sideways. We also talk about the underrated power of the stand-up “social contract” where the room actually listens, and how that experience can reshape confidence in everyday life and public speaking. Then we zoom in on storytelling versus anecdotes, why a real story requires choice and change, and how you can turn an everyday moment like an airport layover into strong material by leaning into specificity and point of view. We also explore modern formats like Zoom comedy and digital sketch, plus why community matters so much when you’re learning in a space that avoids the typical comedy “bro vibe.” If you’ve been waiting for a sign to try something new, this is it. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a laugh, and leave a review with the funniest thing you’ve learned about yourself lately.
