In this episode of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers, Engel Jones connects with April Nowlin from sunny Arizona. April shares her deeply vulnerable story of navigating three divorces within a 20-year span. She opens up about hitting rock bottom at age 41, feeling exhausted and angry at God, before finally embarking on a transformative, year-long healing journey involving therapy, prayer, and tears. April discusses the critical difference between assigning blame and taking accountability, revealing how her childhood as a military brat profoundly impacted her relationship choices.

Listen in as April shares how she transitioned from hiding her story out of shame due to her church upbringing to boldly answering God's call to help others heal. Today, she works as a relationship coach, taking men, women, and couples on a vital journey of self-discovery to uncover who they truly are today. If you are navigating the trauma of a heartbreak or a failed marriage, April’s powerful reminder that "divorce might be a death, but it's not a death sentence" will fill you with the resilience and hope needed to restart your story.
