Healing Through Solo Travel: Rebuilding Confidence After Divorce or Loss // 168

What if your next solo trip wasn’t just a vacation — but part of your healing?

In this deeply personal episode, Cheryl shares how a two-week solo journey after divorce became the beginning of something far bigger than she expected. What started as space to breathe became clarity, confidence, and a calling to help Christian women over 50 walk through life transitions with intention.

If you’re navigating divorce, grief, or a difficult season and wondering whether travel could support your healing, this conversation explores how solo trips can become a meaningful part of restoration — without pretending they are a quick fix.

In This Episode:

• How Cheryl’s first solo trip after divorce shifted her identity
• Why travel supports healing — but isn’t a magic solution
• Lessons from walking the Camino after trauma
• The difference between loneliness and solitude
• Why “why-cations” are rising in 2026
• How intentional travel creates space to grieve and rediscover yourself

Travel Is Not Escape. It’s Space.

Healing doesn’t happen on a rigid timeline.

But stepping outside your daily environment can create space for:

• Reflection
• Emotional processing
• Reclaiming confidence
• Rediscovering who you are beyond your roles

Solo travel becomes powerful when it’s intentional.

This is where travel moves from distraction to transformation.
