Meet Arielle Diaz

We were lucky to catch up with Arielle Diaz recently and have shared our conversation below.

Arielle, looking forward to learning from your journey. You’ve got an amazing story and before we dive into that, let’s start with an important building block. Where do you get your work ethic from?

I’ve always been acutely aware of the fact that this career requires an intense discipline and work ethic; it’s something I understood from a really young age. My commitment comes from a deep, deep part of myself that wants this more than anything. I believe your success depends on your work ethic even more than your talent and my work ethic has always been something I’m really proud of myself for. Hard work pays off; the rest is timing. For me, it also stems from wanting to make my family, and the people who believe in me really, really proud. I want them to know it wasn’t for nothing.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

I’ve been a storyteller for as long as I can remember. I started writing at a very young age and went on to attend a performing arts high school, where I dedicated myself to acting and writing. Acting and writing have always been at the core of my life, and I’ve been committed to living an artistic life as I am so profoundly inspired by the rawness of human emotion and the depth of personal stories. There’s something incredibly powerful about capturing the nuances of feelings—grief, love, joy, struggle—and translating them into narratives that resonate with people. It’s those authentic, deeply felt experiences that drive my creativity and passion for storytelling.

I’m currently focused on bringing a feature film I wrote, and am very passionate about, to life. I’m also preparing my second book of poetry and prose for release. This collection contains my most personal writings, reflecting the most intimate and intense moments of my life. This book is different from my debut collection. I’m older and wiser, the issues are more serious, and the outcome is more beautiful. I couldn’t be more excited for the future. Artistically, I feel so full of ideas.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

1. Hold yourself accountable for doing the work you love and have committed to — especially when it’s something you’re creating on your own, not something given to you.
2. Patience. Time takes time.
3. Always remain a student of life, allowing yourself to keep learning. The learning never stops.

What was the most impactful thing your parents did for you?

They believed in me completely and always said yes to my dreams. They never once doubted me and constantly encouraged me to pursue what made me happy. They allowed me to fall but never let me believe I couldn’t get back up. I truly believe that life becomes infinitely easier, and dreams feel much more within reach, when you have parents who believe in your dreams. It’s the ultimate confidence booster.
