A Show About
CREATIVITY, INTENTION,
AND DESIGNING YOUR LIFE
WELCOME TO THE
Take Your Time Universe
Take Your Time is about realizing that the greatest works of art are ourselves — and that truly great things take time to build. Dianna Cohen sits down with leaders across creativity, wellness, beauty, and fashion to explore not just how they design their lives, but the why behind everything that they do. Each episode unpacks creative turning points, core philosophies, and the daily practices that shape who they are.
Take Your Time is a space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect.
There are plenty of places to hear how someone built a company.
There are very few places to hear how someone built a life.
That gap is where Take Your Time lives.

Meet Our Host
DIANNA COHEN
Dianna Cohen has always understood creativity as a way of moving through the world. Raised in South Florida, she could often be found in the art studio, collecting images, visiting museums and developing the visual language that would shape her life and work.
Her career began at Into The Gloss, followed by formative roles at Spring, Away and her own brand consultancy, Levitate. After years spent helping other founders bring their ideas to life, Dianna began imagining what she might build herself.
In 2020, she launched Crown Affair—an approach to haircare rooted in ritual, intention and the belief that everyday practices can change how we feel. Its guiding philosophy, Take Your Time, became an expression of something larger: that meaningful work, identities and lives are shaped slowly, through attention and trust.
Art remains central to Dianna’s world. In 2026, she launched Take Your Time, a podcast and creative universe exploring the lives behind the work—the choices, rituals and moments of becoming that shape us over time.
