Reinvention After Divorce: Confidence, Beauty & Starting Over with Erika Luren

Reinvention After Divorce: Confidence, Beauty & Starting Over with Erika Luren

In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with Erika Luren — Nurse Practitioner, entrepreneur, beauty and wellness expert, and founder of Rolling Wellness, Aura Aesthetics, and Auralume Skin Rituals — for a powerful conversation about reinvention, self-discovery, and creating a life on your own terms. Raised in Ohio, Erika grew up with a more traditional vision of success: get married, raise a family, and follow a path that was largely predetermined. While she valued family and motherhood, she always felt there was something more she wanted to experience, build, and become. Everything shifted when she moved to Las Vegas. Surrounded by entrepreneurs, ambitious professionals, and people pursuing bigger possibilities, Erika’s perspective began to change. For the first time, she could clearly see a future that extended beyond the roles she had always known. As her marriage began to unravel, Erika found herself at a crossroads. Navigating divorce forced her to reexamine who she was, what she wanted, and what kind of life she wanted to create moving forward. What followed was a remarkable journey of reinvention. Erika rebuilt her confidence, launched successful businesses, and stepped into the worlds of aesthetics, wellness, and longevity. What started as a personal transformation became a mission to help others feel empowered, confident, and healthy from the inside out. Together, Keni and Erika discuss the realities of starting over, the courage required to leave behind an identity that no longer fits, and the importance of giving yourself permission to dream bigger at any stage of life. They also explore beauty, hormones, wellness, longevity, and modern approaches to aging—not as a way to chase youth, but as tools to help people feel their best, reclaim their confidence, and live with intention. This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered if it’s too late to reinvent themselves. Erika’s story is proof that sometimes the most difficult chapters become the beginning of the life you were meant to live. ⭐ Loved This Episode?

Longevity, Reinvention & Redefining Aging with Dr. Khanh Nguyen

In this deeply moving episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni Silva sits down with regenerative medicine physician and longevity expert Dr. Khanh Nguyen for a powerful conversation about survival, resilience, healing, reinvention, and what it truly means to rebuild a life against impossible odds. At just 13 years old, Dr. Khanh escaped Vietnam by boat with her 15-year-old sister in search of freedom and hope for a better future. For seven days, they sailed with little food or water after the boat’s engine broke down before eventually reaching Malaysia and living in a refugee camp. With nothing but determination and the dream of one day becoming a doctor in the United States, Dr. Khanh began a journey that would completely transform her life. For over 30 years, she rarely spoke publicly about that experience. After arriving in America unable to speak English, Dr. Khanh went on to become a critical care physician, dedicating her life to helping others survive. But after years working in internal and critical care medicine, she experienced severe burnout and developed an autoimmune condition that forced her to reevaluate both her health and the traditional medical system. That turning point ultimately led her into regenerative and longevity medicine, where she now helps patients focus not just on surviving — but truly thriving. Through her practice, Austin Regenerative Therapy, Dr. Khanh combines advanced therapies including peptide therapy, hormone optimization, plasma exchange, and regenerative treatments with foundational wellness practices centered around sleep, stress management, nutrition, muscle health, and emotional well-being. In this conversation, Dr. Khanh opens up about overcoming fear, healing after burnout, redefining aging, and why longevity is deeply connected to mindset, emotional health, and learning to prioritize yourself without guilt. This episode explores resilience, immigration, reinvention, burnout recovery, women’s health, longevity, healing, and the belief that transformation is possible at every stage of life. ⭐ Loved This Episode?
