Under Heaven Podcast: Ly Smith (Part 2) - When God Interrupts Your Plans

Under Heaven Podcast: Laureen Quick- When Everything Falls Away

Under Heaven Podcast welcomes Laureen Quick, navigator, threshold guide, and host of Unscripted & Unstoppable. Trish talks with Laureen as she shares her remarkable journey through loss, reinvention, and late‑life transformation. A sudden loss, life shift, and turning 60 brought a profound season of rediscovery:  traveling the world, hiking mountains, and stepping into the work she now does with women over 50. Together, Trish and Laureen explore the inner terrain of transition. They talk about what it feels like when life no longer fits, how to recognize the signs of change, and why disorientation is not a failure but an invitation. Laureen shares her four movements of transformation: descent, shedding, reclaiming, and radiance. She also offers practical wisdom on slowing down, practicing the pause, and trusting the process. They also discuss the power of community, the emotional signals that readiness for change is emerging, and the beauty of later‑life development that often goes unspoken. Laureen closes with two grounding words for anyone in transition: patience and trust.

Under Heaven Podcast: Lena Paulauskas - Journey through the Valley Grief

Under Heaven Podcast host, Trish, shares a deeply personal conversation with Lena to explore how grief became the unexpected doorway to healing, creativity, and ministry. This episode is a tender companion for anyone grieving, anyone loving someone who grieves, or anyone longing to see how God can bring beauty from the hardest seasons. You may feel lonely, but you are not alone. God walks with you, and healing doesn’t have to be rushed. Lena is a poet, playwright, performer, and longtime theater educator who began writing poems as private prayers and journal entries after losing her father in 2017.  What started as personal processing soon became a lifeline for others, as God nudged her to share her words with people walking through their own valleys. Those poems eventually became her book, Chasing Time: A Journey Through Grief.
