Fail, Flail, Faith: Turns Out God Recycles Bad Decisions

The Bite Size Podcast with Lorayne Michaels

What if the chapter you’re most afraid to share holds the key to your calling? We go straight at the hard stuff—shame, regret, betrayal, addiction, and the moments that feel beyond repair—and show how grace doesn’t erase the past, it redeems it. Through personal stories of infidelity, abusive relationships, and seasons of numbing, we trace the surprising ways God meets us in the mess with love, strength, and a plan that turns wounds into assignments.
We dismantle the lie that you’re “too broken” or “too late” by rooting identity in scripture—Romans 8:28 and 2 Corinthians 12:9—and in lived experience that proves healing is possible. You’ll learn the practical shift from shame to stewardship: acknowledge the pain without pretending, allow God to work at the root, and align your daily choices with purpose. Gratitude becomes a tool for traction, not a slogan, while targeted journaling prompts help you surface the places you’ve felt disqualified, recognize what God has already redeemed, and map how your story can serve others.
If you’ve survived divorce, trauma, addiction, or betrayal, you’ll find a clear, compassionate path forward. We offer simple practices, honest language, and hopeful theology to help you reframe your past as a platform, not a prison. By the end, you’ll have prompts to write through the tough chapters, a lens to spot grace at work, and the courage to use your scars as guidance for someone still in the dark. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs hope today, and leave a review telling us one place where grace has already rewritten your story.
