    The Rooms You Choose: Opportunities Taken, Missed and Waiting

    In this episode of Voice Unbound, Laura reflects on the opportunities that shape our lives. The ones we say yes to, the ones we miss, and the ones we don’t even realize were there at the time. She shares personal insight on why being in the right rooms matters, including stepping into an opportunity this week in San Diego, and how growth often comes simply from showing up with an open heart. This conversation is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask yourself what doors God may be opening right now and what courage it takes to walk through them. Perfect for anyone navigating change, growth, or the quiet nudge to step into something new. What room is God inviting you to step into right now, and what might be holding you back from saying yes?

    When Days, Numbers, and Time Start Speaking

    Have you ever noticed repeating numbers, certain dates, or moments in time that seem to stop you in your tracks? In this episode, Laura opens a gentle and honest conversation about days, numbers, and time—and how God often speaks through what we’re tempted to overlook. When you’ve experienced loss, time feels different. Days carry weight. Numbers resurface. Dates sting, comfort, or quietly whisper reminders of God’s nearness. This episode isn’t about chasing signs—it’s about learning to pay attentionand inviting God into the moments that feel heavy, confusing, or sacred. If you’ve been wondering whether God is still present in the small details of your life, this conversation is for you. Why time can feel distorted after grief or transition How certain days or numbers can stir emotions, memories, or awareness The difference between noticing and over-spiritualizing How God often meets us in the ordinary, not just the dramatic Learning to pause and ask, “God, what are You inviting me into here?” God is not bound by time—but He is deeply present within it. Nothing about your life is random, wasted, or overlooked. Even the days that feel insignificant or painful are held by Him. Is there a day, number, or moment in your life that keeps resurfacing—and instead of dismissing it, what might happen if you brought it to God in prayer? “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”— Psalm 90:12 If time has felt heavy, confusing, or tender lately, you’re not behind—and you’re not missing anything. God is present right here, right now. Healing doesn’t rush, and neither does He. If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who may need this reminder today.

    It's Your First Birthday in Heaven Honey

    Today’s episode is one of the most personal I’ve ever shared. It’s my husband’s first birthday in heaven, and my heart is heavy in ways that are hard to put into words. I talk honestly about missing him every single minute, how life feels disorienting without him here beside me, and what it means to keep showing up when your world feels like it’s spinning. This episode is not about having the right answers. It’s about sitting in the grief. Honoring love that didn’t end. And holding onto God as the constant when everything else feels uncertain. If you are walking through loss, especially during milestones like birthdays, holidays, or anniversaries, this episode is for you. You are not alone in the in between. God is near, even here. In this episode, we talk about: • What the first birthday in heaven really feels like • Grief as something we carry, not something we rush through • Living through the emotions while the world keeps moving • How God meets us in our brokenness without asking us to be strong • Hope that holds space for both love and loss Scripture Reflection “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 If this episode touched your heart: Share it with someone who may need to feel seen today. Leave a review so this message can reach others walking through loss. And remember, you are held, even in the hardest moments. Thank you for being here and allowing me to share this sacred space with you. Merry Christmas to all my listeners. May God be with you and your family this week. Please share this podcast with others and leave a five start review.

    No More Hiding: Releasing the Voice God Gave You

    Have you been shrinking, staying quiet, or hiding the very voice God placed inside you?If so, this episode is going to speak right to the heart of that struggle. In today’s powerful conversation,I explore why so many women silence themselves, not because they lack confidence, but because they’ve been wounded, dismissed, or taught to play small. Laura walks you through the emotional and spiritual roots of hiding your voice and helps you see that God never called you to blend into the background. This episode is your invitation to step out of the shadows and into the boldness God designed for you. Why silence can feel safer than speaking How old wounds, criticism, and past experiences influence your voice The spiritual significance of your God-given sound How hiding becomes a habit and how to break it Simple steps to start releasing your voice again A guided moment to help you declare truth over yourself This isn’t just encouragement it’s activation. Your voice is not accidental; it’s an assignment. Hiding isn't humility it’s fear dressed up as protection. What God has placed in you is needed. Healing begins when you name the moments that taught you to shrink. Small steps create big breakthroughs. Silenced Overlooked Unheard Too much Not enough Afraid to speak Unsure of their calling This episode will remind you:Your voice matters. Your story carries weight. God is calling you out of hiding.

    This episode is tender, honest, and deeply human. Laura walks through her first holiday season, and her husband’s birthday — without the man who was her partner, her person, and her safe place.

    The Silence Between Heaven and Home

    by Laura Ard The silence feels different now not empty, but sacred. Seven months have passed since Heaven gained you, and earth lost its steady rhythm. In the stillness, I hear echoes of laughter, whispers of love that never left. This space between Heaven and home it’s where I learn to listen, to breathe, to trust that love never dies, it just changes form. Until I see you again, I’ll honor the silence, and let it speak of grace. 🤍 The Silence Between Heaven and Home To connect with Laura IG https://www.instagram.com/voice_unbound?igsh=MWcxNzJidDNjdmJtcA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Facebook https://www.facebook.com/VoiceUnboundCoaching?mibextid=LQQJ4d Website https://voiceunboundcoaching.com  YouTube  https://youtube.com/@lauraardwellnesslifecoaching TIKTOK https://www.tiktok.com/@laura.ard1?_t=8nbkhor6pqd&_r=1 Thank you for taking the time to listen, share with others and be sure to subscribe .
