This episode of CockTales Dirty Discussions welcomes actress, writer and producer Lindsay Diann for an open conversation that spans personal milestones, grief, career evolution and creative ambition. Known for her on-screen roles and her work behind the camera, Diann uses the episode to reflect on a transformative period marked by both loss and renewed hope.
The discussion with the hosts centers on her experience being “paper pregnant” and the emotional complexities that followed a miscarriage. She details the physical and mental toll of inducing a missed miscarriage at home and explains how navigating shifting hormone levels affected her daily life and relationships. The episode examines the support systems needed during these moments, including how partners can better show up when someone is carrying the weight of recovery and emotional responsibility.
Diann also speaks to the broader transition from living outwardly to becoming more intentional with choices, priorities and personal boundaries. The conversation highlights how marriages, babies and life changes can reshape long-standing friendships, and how to be more present and supportive when someone in a friend group faces trauma or loss.
In addition to her personal journey, Diann touches on her professional momentum. She discusses playing an unpredictable character on the series The Team and why stepping into the role of a villain continues to be creatively fulfilling. The episode closes with updates on her production company, LA Elite Productions, and several upcoming projects, including Girls Night, The Perfect Proposal and Curious.
