After facing a wide range of personal battles, from empty nester syndrome to menopause to depression, Rajeshwari is now focussed on being a hero to herself and others through her social media presence as A Trendy Diva. A vibrant influencer on Instagram with a strong army of 197K followers, Rajeshwari showcases the beauty of fashion, grey hair, and her Indian culture with sophistication, class, and a little bit of sass! In this episode, Rajeshwari talks about her move to Australia, the important reason of showing off your grey, and how you should never stop learning.

As the world came to a standstill during the pandemic, Eva used her newfound free time to rediscover her love in fashion and jewellery which she showcased on social media. As her following began to grow, Eva also attracted the attention of a modelling scout. As she now navigates a successful modelling career, Eva’s mission is to show the world how mature women should never have to be defined or constrained by cultural norms or expectations. In this episode, Eva talks about her childhood love for art, how she got her start in modelling, and what the new influencer looks like.

Her voice has followed you across time zones — through the hum of a Delta flight, the hush of a Hilton lobby, the soft persuasion of a beauty ad.

It's the one you know but can’t place — calm, warm, unmistakable. But behind that voice is a story of grit, grace, and evolution.

Before she became one of the most recognisable voices in media, Diane was a producer and media manager at Voice of America, travelling through over 30 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. There, she captured stories of resilience and hope — witnessing the raw strength of the human spirit in places where survival itself was an act of courage.

Those years changed her. They gave her a voice that wasn’t just trained — it was earned.

Today, Diane uses that same voice to lead a new kind of conversation — one about ageing without apology, living without limits, and the quiet revolution of women rewriting what strength looks like.

In this episode, Diane reflects on her early career, her journey through menopause, and the relationships that remind us who we are when everything else shifts.

Her voice once told other people’s stories. Now, she’s telling her own.

This is Diane Britt-Smith — timeless, fearless, and utterly herself.
