We dive into her interspiritual path, the role of radical compassion in a chaotic world, and how ancient truths can still guide us — no matter your tradition (or none at all). From hospice care to handmade ceramics, Lauryn’s journey is a soulful tapestry of art, service, and sacred presence. This conversation will leave you grounded, inspired, and reconnected to what really matters.
