Summary
Luke Mickelson is the founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that has built and delivered more than 300,000 beds to children in need across the world. With nothing but hope, hammers, and heart, Luke traded his corporate success for a movement rooted in dignity, compassion, and community.
Today, Luke shares how one “tiny moment” changed everything. From witnessing a little girl named Haley receive her very first bed to walking away from a steady career to serve full time, Luke proves that a willing heart and a power drill can change lives... starting with your own.
My friends, if you need a reminder that purpose can begin with the simplest of actions, this conversation is for you. You’ll leave this episode with a deeper belief that your tiny moments matter, and that one small "yes" can transform a community.
