          <itunes:summary>Do you secretly feel like your divorce means you failed—no matter how hard you tried? Are you exhausted from living in survival mode, wondering if financial freedom will ever be possible again? Do your days revolve around everyone else while your own routines—and dreams—keep getting pushed aside? Do you feel called to more, but self-doubt keeps whispering, “Who do you think you are to start over now?”

I am beyond excited that you’re here!

This podcast will help you heal after divorce, rebuild your confidence, and step into a new season of purpose—so you can create a healthy relationship, build meaningful success, and become the strongest, healthiest version of yourself for you and your family.

Hey, I’m Lori Ann. A divorced mom of 2 sweet miracles, “Jesus Lover,” &amp; a Certified Christian Life Coach. For over a decade, I wandered around in the wilderness carrying guilt &amp; shame. I felt like a complete failure.


I tried to push through instead of heal. I ignored my own needs, stayed stuck in survival mode, and hoped God would fix everything without me having to face the hard stuff. I consumed inspiration but avoided transformation. And no matter how hard I tried to “move on,” I kept ending up right back in the same emotional place.

I finally realized that if I was going to heal fully, create a healthy relationship, build meaningful success, and move out of survival mode, I needed more than willpower and waiting—I needed a faith-based strategy for rebuilding my life from the inside out.

That decision changed everything. By combining faith with practical, step-by-step action, I healed, rebuilt my confidence, and created a life of purpose that no longer kept me stuck in survival mode. And now I’m ready to share it with you!

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #15: Why “Just Have Faith” Is Terrible Advice for Divorced Women
<p>“Just have faith.”</p>
<p>If you’re a Christian woman going through divorce, chances are you’ve heard this more than once.</p>
<p>And while it sounds encouraging…</p>
<p>It often leaves you feeling more confused, frustrated, and even spiritually stuck.</p>
<p>Because when your life has just fallen apart, your identity feels shaken, and your emotions are all over the place…</p>
<p>“Just have faith” doesn’t actually tell you what to do next.</p>
<p>In this honest and eye-opening episode of "The Midlife Comeback Club Podcast," I break down why this common piece of advice falls flat for so many Christian women after divorce—and what real, practical faith actually looks like in a season of healing.</p>
<p>Because the truth is…</p>
<p>Faith isn’t meant to replace your healing.
And it’s not meant to silence your emotions.</p>
<p>If you’ve been trying to “just have faith” but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, this episode will help you understand something powerful.</p>
<p>You’re not doing it wrong.
You’ve just been given incomplete advice.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– Why “just have faith” can feel frustrating and unhelpful after divorce
– How this advice can unintentionally keep Christian women emotionally stuck
– The difference between real faith and passive waiting
– Why faith doesn’t eliminate grief, confusion, or emotional pain
– What the Bible actually shows about faith and taking action
– How to move forward after divorce with both faith and practical steps
– What real, grounded faith looks like during divorce recovery</p>
✨ Ready to Move Forward with Confidence and Faith?

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #14: Faith Doesn’t Cancel Feelings — Why Suppressing Pain After Divorce Isn’t Spiritual
<p>As Christian women, we’re often taught that if we just “have enough faith,” we shouldn’t feel sad, angry, or overwhelmed.</p>
<p>So after divorce, when those emotions show up…</p>
<p>We try to pray them away.
Ignore them.
Push them down.</p>
<p>And call it faith.</p>
<p>But what if suppressing your feelings isn’t spiritual at all?</p>
<p>In this honest and eye-opening episode of The Midlife Comeback Club Podcast, I talk about the real reason so many Christian women stay stuck emotionally after divorce—and why pretending you’re “fine” is actually slowing down your healing.</p>
<p>Because the truth is…</p>
<p>Faith doesn’t cancel your feelings.</p>
<p>And healing doesn’t happen when you ignore what you feel—it happens when you finally face it.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever felt like your emotions mean you’re doing something wrong spiritually, this episode will help you understand something powerful.</p>
<p>You’re not failing in your faith.
You’re learning how to process your pain in a healthy, honest way.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– Why suppressing emotions after divorce keeps you stuck longer than necessary
– The difference between real healing and “spiritual avoidance”
– What the Bible actually shows us about emotions and faith
– WhatvJesus did when it came to expressing his deep emotions
– How to stop trying to “pray away” your feelings
– What it looks like to bring honest, unfiltered emotions to God
– How emotional healing and spiritual growth actually work together</p>
✨ Ready to Heal Without Pretending You’re Fine?
<p>If this episode spoke to your heart, the next step is walking through this process with support.</p>

As Christian women, we’re often taught that if we just “have enough faith,” we shouldn’t feel sad, angry, or overwhelmed.
So after divorce, when those emotions show up…
We try to pray them away.Ignore them.Push them down.
And call it faith.
But what if suppressing your feelings isn’t spiritual at all?
In this honest and eye-opening episode of The Midlife Comeback Club Podcast, I talk about the real reason so many Christian women stay stuck emotionally after divorce—and why pretending you’re “fine” is actually slowing down your healing.
Because the truth is…
Faith doesn’t cancel your feelings.
And healing doesn’t happen when you ignore what you feel—it happens when you finally face it.
If you’ve ever felt like your emotions mean you’re doing something wrong spiritually, this episode will help you understand something powerful.
You’re not failing in your faith.You’re learning how to process your pain in a healthy, honest way.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
– Why suppressing emotions after divorce keeps you stuck longer than necessary– The difference between real healing and “spiritual avoidance”– What the Bible actually shows us about emotions and faith– WhatvJesus did when it came to expressing his deep emotions– How to stop trying to “pray away” your feelings– What it looks like to bring honest, unfiltered emotions to God– How emotional healing and spiritual growth actually work together

<p>For years, many Christian women have been taught that being a “Proverbs 31 woman” means staying quiet, keeping the peace, and enduring—no matter what.</p>
<p>But what if that’s not what the Bible actually teaches?</p>
<p>In this bold and eye-opening episode of The Midlife Comeback Club Podcast, I unpack one of the most misunderstood concepts in Christian womanhood—and how it may be keeping you stuck in unhealthy patterns after divorce.</p>
<p>Because the truth is…</p>
<p>Being a godly woman does not mean tolerating behavior that breaks you.</p>
<p>And it definitely doesn’t mean abandoning yourself in the process.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever felt like you had to choose between your faith and your well-being, this episode will help you see something clearly.</p>
<p>You don’t have to disappear to be a “good Christian woman.”</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– What the Proverbs 31 woman actually represents (and what she doesn’t)
– Why “just pray and stay” is often misunderstood—and not always biblical
– The difference between true strength and silent self-abandonment
– What it really means to “guard your heart” as a Christian woman
– What Jesus would do in an unhealthy relationship
– Why your value is not based on how much you tolerate
– How to begin reclaiming your voice, your confidence, and your identity after divorce</p>
✨Ready to Rebuild Your Life with Confidence and Faith?

<p>If you’ve ever laid in bed replaying your past like it’s your brain’s full-time job… this episode is for you.</p>
<p>Because let’s be real—after divorce, it’s not just the heartbreak you carry…</p>
<p> It’s the guilt.
 The second-guessing.
 The quiet thoughts that whisper:
 “I should’ve known better.”
 “This was my fault.”</p>
<p>In this episode, we’re calling that out for what it really is—shame that’s keeping you stuck.</p>
<p>And more importantly?
We’re replacing it with truth.</p>
<p>Because God never asked you to carry something He already paid for.</p>
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
<p>–The difference between conviction vs. shame (and why so many women confuse the two)
 –Why replaying your past is not helping you heal (even though it feels like it is)
 –The hidden reason you’re still holding onto guilt—and how to finally release it
 –What the Bible actually says about forgiveness, grace, and letting go of your past
 –How to break free from the mental loop of overthinking and step into emotional and spiritual freedom</p>
Ready to Let Go of the Shame and Move Forward?
<p>If you’re tired of:
✨ Replaying the past
✨ Carrying guilt that God already released
✨ Overthinking every decision
✨ Feeling stuck in your healing</p>
<p>This is exactly the work we do inside <a href='https://loriannfeeley.com/the-midlife-comeback-club'>The Midlife Comeback Club</a> 💛</p>
<p>This isn’t just inspiration…</p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #11: You Didn’t Lose Your Faith—You Lost the Life You Expected
<p>After divorce, it can feel like your faith is… off.</p>
<p>You still believe in God.
You still pray.
You still want to trust Him.</p>
<p>But something feels different.</p>
<p>And that can be confusing—especially as a Christian woman.</p>
<p>In this episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I break down what’s actually happening when your faith feels shaken after divorce.</p>
<p>Because the truth is:</p>
<p>You didn’t lose your faith.
You lost the life you thought you were going to have.</p>
<p>And those are not the same thing.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever thought, “Why does my faith feel so different now?”
This episode will help you understand what’s really going on—and how to rebuild from here.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– Why it feels like you’ve “lost your faith” after divorce (even when you haven’t)
– How unmet expectations can shake your identity and your relationship with God
– Why questioning God doesn’t mean your faith is failing
– The shift from surface-level faith → real, personal faith
– How to begin rebuilding your faith in a way that actually feels honest and grounded</p>
Ready to Rebuild Your Faith and Your Life?
<p>If this episode spoke to your heart, it’s time to stop trying to figure this out on your own.</p>
<p>Inside <a href='https://loriannfeeley.com/'>The Midlife Comeback Club</a>, I help you:

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #8: Why Christian Women Stay in Unhealthy Relationships (Even When They Know Better)
Why do so many Christian women stay in unhealthy relationships… even when they know something isn’t right?
<p>They see the red flags.
They feel it in their gut.
And yet… they stay.</p>
<p>In this honest episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I break down the real reasons why faithful, self-aware women stay stuck in relationship patterns that hurt them.</p>
<p>Because this isn’t about weakness.</p>
<p>It’s about conditioning, fear, and believing that staying makes you “good”—even when it’s costing you your peace.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why did I stay so long?”
This episode will help you understand—and start breaking the pattern.</p>
<p>In This Episode You’ll Learn:</p>
<p>– What Christian women confuse with love
– How spiritualizing red flags keeps you stuck longer than you should be
– Why ignoring your needs becomes a pattern (and how to stop)
– How unhealthy relationships erode your confidence and self-trust
– Why staying can feel safer than leaving
– The mindset shifts you need to finally choose differently</p>
<p>Ready to Break the Pattern?</p>
<p>If this episode spoke to your heart, the next step is getting the support you need to heal and rebuild.</p>
<p>Inside The Midlife Comeback Club, you’ll learn how to:
rebuild your confidence
trust yourself again
and stop repeating the same old patterns</p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #7: Why Christian Women Struggle to Believe in Themselves—Even When They Love Jesus
<p>As Christian women, we’re taught to trust God, have faith, and walk in humility.</p>
<p>But what no one really talks about is this:</p>
<p>You can love Jesus… and still struggle to believe in yourself.</p>
<p>You can pray, read your Bible, and encourage everyone around you—while quietly battling self-doubt, insecurity, and second-guessing every decision you make.</p>
<p>And after divorce, that struggle often becomes even deeper.</p>
<p>Because divorce has a way of shaking your confidence, your identity, and your ability to trust yourself at the core.</p>
<p>In this honest episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I talk about why so many Christian women struggle with confidence after divorce—even when their faith is strong.</p>
<p>Because the truth is, this isn’t about a lack of faith.</p>
<p>It’s about years of conditioning, identity confusion, and beliefs that have kept you disconnected from who God says you are.</p>
<p>In this episode, I share part of my own journey of rebuilding confidence after divorce and what it actually takes to move from self-doubt into grounded, faith-filled confidence.</p>
<p>Not loud confidence.
Not fake confidence.
But the kind of confidence that is rooted in truth, identity, and trust in who God created you to be.</p>
<p>If you’re a Christian woman who feels stuck in self-doubt, this episode will help you understand something powerful:</p>
<p>You are not lacking faith.
You are not “too broken.”
You are a woman learning how to trust yourself again through God’s truth.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– Why many Christian women struggle with self-confidence—even when they love Jesus
– How church culture can unintentionally create insecurity instead of healthy confidence
– Why divorce often destroys self-trust and leads to second-guessing everything
– What leads to ongoing self-doubt
– Why many women have been conditioned to outsource their worth to others
– What has to come first in order to build confidence
– How renewing your mind is essential for rebuilding confidence after divorce
– The difference between pride and healthy, faith-based self-belief</p>
✨ Ready to Rebuild Your Confidence and Identity After Divorce?
<p>If this episode spoke to your heart, the next step is surrounding yourself with women who understand this journey and are doing this work too.</p>
<p>Inside The Midlife Comeback Club, you’ll find:</p>
<p>Lori Ann’s transformational 90-Day Comeback Program

You don’t have to stay stuck in self-doubt.
And you don’t have to rebuild your life alone.</p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #6: Why So Many Divorced Women Stay Stuck in Survival Mode
<p>After divorce, many women enter survival mode just to get through the crisis.</p>
<p>They’re juggling finances, parenting, emotional overwhelm, and the shock of their life changing overnight.</p>
<p>At first, survival mode makes sense.</p>
<p>But for many divorced women — especially Christian women in midlife — survival mode doesn’t just last for a season.</p>
<p>It quietly becomes the way they live.</p>
<p>They keep functioning, showing up, and holding everything together… but inside they feel exhausted, disconnected, and stuck.</p>
<p>In this honest episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I talk about why so many divorced women remain stuck in survival mode after divorce — and how to begin moving toward true healing and freedom.</p>
<p>Because the truth is, survival mode may protect you in a crisis, but it was never meant to be your permanent home.</p>
<p>If you’ve been feeling emotionally numb, constantly overwhelmed, or like you’re just getting through each day instead of actually living again, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening.</p>
<p>And more importantly, it will show you how to begin stepping out of survival mode and into healing.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– What survival mode after divorce actually looks like and why so many women experience it
– Why survival mode often begins as a protective response to emotional trauma
– How unprocessed grief can keep divorced women stuck in survival mode
– Why many Christian women struggle to move beyond survival after divorce
– How fear and constant busyness can keep you emotionally stuck
– Why many women build an identity around being “the strong one”
– The small, practical steps that help you begin moving from surviving to healing

✨ Ready to Rebuild Your Faith and Your Life After Divorce?</p>
<p>If this episode spoke to your heart, the next step is surrounding yourself with women who understand this journey.</p>

After divorce, many women enter survival mode just to get through the crisis.
They’re juggling finances, parenting, emotional overwhelm, and the shock of their life changing overnight.
At first, survival mode makes sense.
But for many divorced women — especially Christian women in midlife — survival mode doesn’t just last for a season.
It quietly becomes the way they live.
They keep functioning, showing up, and holding everything together… but inside they feel exhausted, disconnected, and stuck.

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #5: Faith After Divorce — How to Trust God When Your Life Fell Apart
<p>Trusting God after divorce can feel almost impossible.</p>
<p>As Christian women, we’re often told to “just trust God,” “have faith,” or “lean not on your own understanding.” But when the marriage you prayed for falls apart and the life you imagined is suddenly gone, those words can feel more frustrating than comforting.</p>
<p>In this honest episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I talk about the real struggle many Christian women face when their faith feels shaken after divorce.</p>
<p>Because the truth is, many women still believe in God after divorce — but their trust feels fragile.</p>
<p>And they often feel guilty about that.</p>
<p>In this episode, I share a deeply personal part of my own journey of rebuilding faith after divorce and the steps that helped me begin trusting God again — not with perfect faith, but with honest faith.</p>
<p>If you’re a Christian woman trying to reconcile your pain with your faith, this episode will help you understand something powerful:</p>
<p>You are not failing spiritually.
You are not a bad Christian because this is hard.
You are a woman learning how to trust God again after heartbreak.</p>
<p>In This Episode You’ll Learn:</p>
<p>– Why trusting God after divorce is often harder than people admit
– How church culture can unintentionally make women feel guilty when their faith struggles
– What is the first step toward rebuilding trust with God
– How to separate God’s character from painful life circumstances
– Why clarity doesn’t always come before obedience
– What helps rebuild trust in God over time
– Why your faith after divorce may actually become deeper and more authentic</p>
🌿 If Your Faith Feels Shaky Right Now…
<p>You’re not alone.</p>
<p>Many Christian women experience a season after divorce where they still love God but struggle to understand Him.</p>
<p>Questions like:</p>
<p>Why did God allow this?
Why didn’t my prayers change the outcome?
Where was God when everything fell apart?</p>
<p>These are real questions — and bringing them to God honestly is not rebellion. It’s relationship.</p>
<p>In fact, rebuilding faith after divorce often begins when we stop pretending everything is okay and start bringing God our real questions, grief, anger, and confusion.</p>
<p>As I share in this episode, God isn’t looking for polished faith — He’s looking for honest faith.</p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[Episode #4: Healing After Divorce — What No One Prepares Christian Women For
<p>Healing after divorce isn’t just about signing papers, dividing assets, or adjusting to a new routine. For many Christian women, the real battle begins after everything settles—when the emotional aftershock, identity crisis, loneliness, and spiritual questions start to surface.</p>
<p>In this deeply honest episode of <a href='https://loriannfeeley.com/the-midlife-comeback-club'>The Midlife Comeback Club</a>, I share what no one talks about when it comes to healing after divorce as a Christian woman.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever wondered why the pain lingers longer than expected, why your identity feels shaken, or why healing feels so lonely at times, this conversation will help you realize something powerful:</p>
<p>You’re not broken. You’re not failing. You’re healing.</p>
<p>I share pieces of my own journey through divorce and the lessons God used to rebuild my confidence, identity, and purpose—one small surrendered step at a time.</p>
<p>If you’re a Christian woman navigating life after divorce, this episode will help you understand what’s happening emotionally, spiritually, and mentally—and how to start moving forward with hope again.</p>
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
<p>– Why healing after divorce is not linear (and why emotional setbacks are actually part of progress)
– The hidden identity crisis many Christian women face after divorce
– Why loneliness can feel so intense during healing after divorce
– How the real battle after divorce often happens in your mind
– The surprising grief many women experience for the future that never happened
– Why surrender is one of the most powerful steps in Christian divorce recovery
– How God can rebuild a life that is stronger, freer, and more aligned with your purpose</p>
🌿 If You’re Healing After Divorce as a Christian Woman…
<p>This episode will remind you that:</p>
<p>You are not disqualified.
Your story is not over.
And God is still writing your comeback.</p>
<p>Even if healing feels messy, slow, or confusing right now, God is still working behind the scenes to rebuild your life in ways you may not be able to see yet.</p>

Healing after divorce isn’t just about signing papers, dividing assets, or adjusting to a new routine. For many Christian women, the real battle begins after everything settles—when the emotional aftershock, identity crisis, loneliness, and spiritual questions start to surface.
In this deeply honest episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, I share what no one talks about when it comes to healing after divorce as a Christian woman.
If you’ve ever wondered why the pain lingers longer than expected, why your identity feels shaken, or why healing feels so lonely at times, this conversation will help you realize something powerful:
You’re not broken. You’re not failing. You’re healing.
I share pieces of my own journey through divorce and the lessons God used to rebuild my confidence, identity, and purpose—one small surrendered step at a time.
If you’re a Christian woman navigating life after divorce, this episode will help you understand what’s happening emotionally, spiritually, and mentally—and how to start moving forward with hope again.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
– Why healing after divorce is not linear (and why emotional setbacks are actually part of progress)– The hidden identity crisis many Christian women face after divorce– Why loneliness can feel so intense during healing after divorce– How the real battle after divorce often happens in your mind– The surprising grief many women experience for the future that never happened– Why surrender is one of the most powerful steps in Christian divorce recovery– How God can rebuild a life that is stronger, freer, and more aligned with your purpose
🌿 If You’re Healing After Divorce as a Christian Woman…
This episode will remind you that:
You are not disqualified.Your story is not over.And God is still writing your comeback.
Even if healing feels messy, slow, or confusing right now, God is still working behind the scenes to rebuild your life in ways you may not be able to see yet.

<p>In this episode, we're having an honest, faith-centered conversation about dating after divorce, healing before relationships, and how to know if you’re “healed enough” to open your heart again.</p>
<p>Because here’s the truth:</p>
<p>You’re not afraid of love.
You’re afraid of repeating pain.</p>
<p>Divorce doesn’t just end a marriage.

</li>
<li>
<p>What if I attract the same kind of relationship?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>How do I date in a way that honors God?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>What does “healed enough” even mean?</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This episode will help you navigate loving again after divorce — not from fantasy, fear, or pressure — but from truth, self-awareness, and faith.</p>

</li>
<li>
<p>How to approach love again with faith instead of desperation</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This episode is especially helpful for women navigating midlife divorce recovery who want to rebuild their identity and relationships in alignment with God.</p>

</li>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>Are you a Christian woman navigating healing after divorce and wondering why you still feel stuck?</p>
<p>In this powerful first episode of The Midlife Comeback Club, we dive into one of the most overlooked parts of Christian divorce recovery – survival mode.</p>
<p>After divorce, many midlife women find themselves functioning — but not fully living. You’re working. Parenting. Praying. Showing up. But inside, you feel exhausted, disconnected, anxious, or spiritually numb.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever thought:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>“Why am I still struggling after my divorce?”</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>“Why does my faith feel different now?”</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>“Why can’t I just move on?”</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>“Why do I feel stuck in survival mode?”</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This episode will help you understand what’s happening in your body, your nervous system, your identity, and your faith.</p>
<p>Because survival mode after divorce isn’t weakness.
It’s a trauma response.</p>
<p>And true healing after divorce — especially for Christian women — begins with compassion, safety, and grounded faith.</p>
<p>What You'll Learn In This Episode:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>What survival mode after divorce really is</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Why healing after divorce is not linear</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>How divorce impacts identity and sense of safety</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Why you can’t “pray harder” or “push through” trauma</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The connection between nervous system healing and faith</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>3 foundational steps to move from survival to stability</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>How Christian women can rebuild after divorce without shame</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This episode is especially helpful for women navigating midlife divorce recovery who want faith-based guidance rooted in emotional and nervous system awareness.</p>
