I Need Blue
I turned around to see a masked man pointing a gun at me. It was just the beginning of a series of events, including robbery and abduction, which changed my life forever. I Need Blue, hosted by Jen Lee, is a podcast series featuring lived-experiences from survivors of life events. I NEED BLUE creates space for survivors of trauma to feel they BELONG, are LOVED, UNDERSTOOD and EMPOWERED! I called 9-1-1 and they provided me with life-saving directions to help my customer who was having a medical emergency. Law enforcement rescued us and caught the robber. Our first-responders face unique traumas every day. I NEED BLUE provides space for them too!

Trish's Journey Through Stage Four Cancer and Finding Peace
Trish is a retired dentist, a devoted mother of two, and a loving wife. She built a successful practice in Charleston, South Carolina, before life took an unexpected turn. After selling her practice earlier than planned, she and her husband moved to West Virginia, where she was suddenly diagnosed with stage four uterine cancer. What was initially believed to be a terminal prognosis turned into an incredible journey of survival. Through the care of exceptional medical professionals, the unwavering support of her husband, family, and friends, and her own deep spiritual transformation, Trish defied the odds and found healing.
Her journey was not only physical but deeply emotional and spiritual. She describes her recovery as an "undoing"—a release of fear, limiting beliefs, and emotional burdens that had weighed her down. This shift in perspective, combined with both traditional and alternative treatments, played a crucial role in her healing process. Now, Trish embraces each day with gratitude, sharing her story to inspire others facing adversity. She encourages those struggling to find peace within themselves, letting go of what no longer serves them, and embracing the love and support around them. Though she doesn’t dwell on labels like "remission," she is grateful for where she is today—alive, thriving, and filled with purpose.
