The Illuminated Woman
The Illuminated Woman is a sanctuary for women leaving New Age deception and returning to the truth of God’s Word. Hosted by Lori Latimer, a former New Age practitioner turned follower of Jesus, this podcast helps you untangle spiritual lies, reclaim your God-given identity, and walk boldly in Biblical truth—with grace, wisdom, and unwavering faith.
Rooted in faith, deeply discerning, and unapologetically walking in God's wisdom and direction—The Illuminated Woman is where clarity meets conviction, and healing begins in truth.

233 When the Path Pauses: Why I’m Stepping Away for a Season

After being away from the podcast for several weeks, I wanted to come on and share an honest update. About five weeks ago I developed a health issue that has completely knocked me for a loop. I’ve been to the hospital twice and am currently working with doctors to figure out what’s going on. Between the pain, the medications, and the testing ahead, I simply don’t have the physical or mental bandwidth right now to continue producing the podcast.
As many of you know, creating each episode involves hours of work beyond the recording itself—research, editing, writing show notes, creating social media, and preparing newsletters. Right now, I need to reserve my energy for healing and for my work, so I’m placing the podcast on hold for a season while I focus on my health.
This season has also reminded me how grateful I am for the strong health foundation I’ve built over the years and for the clarity that comes from staying grounded in God’s Word. When life becomes uncertain, faith gives us something solid to stand on. My hope is that this journey—both the struggles and the transformation—continues to encourage you to seek truth and walk closely with God.
While the podcast is paused, I will still be sharing a daily Scripture graphic on Instagram at 9:15 a.m. Eastern as part of my Year in the Word for Women. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for walking with me through the past six years of this podcast. I’m deeply grateful for your support, and I hope to return when the time is right.
Right now I don’t know when I’ll be back. I hope you will “follow” the podcast on whatever podcast app you use, so when I do come back (as I hope to do), a new episode will pop up in your podcast feed.
The Illuminated Connection Call is a free conversation where we talk heart to heart—no pressure, no agenda. I’d love to hear what’s on your heart, where you are in your life and spiritual journey, and what you’re sensing God may be stirring in you. Whether you’re just beginning to question the New Age path, exploring Biblical truth, are already living a God-led life, or simply feeling lost and unsure—this space is for you.
