You’ll also get coaching for the steps along the journey of restoration, communication, and trust. Hey, I’m Kristina Joy. Forgiven daughter of Jesus, wife, and working mom. For years, I tried to break free from my infidelity in all the wrong ways. I tried by sheer willpower, I tried reading my Bible more, and I even considered joining a 12-step program. None of it worked. I finally realized that if I was going to find true freedom in my life, I needed to let Jesus heal some deep wounds in my heart. Through prayer, a whole lot of research, and developing new healthy habits, I was finally able to find healing to shed my shame once and for all. I learned I could choose to leave the affair behind. I could choose to pursue my own emotional healing and growth, no matter if my marriage survived or not. I could create new healthy habits that would move me forward in confidence, with strength and dignity. And I am SO ready to share what I’ve learned with you! If you are ready to finally find your true self in Christ, Experience ultimate freedom from your bondage, Feel authentic connection without the secrets, And move forward with strength and dignity, Then find your safe space and pop in those earbuds. I’m about to show you that intimacy after infidelity is possible, and your marriage can be even better than it was before. Get ready- let’s rebuild your life and marriage better than it’s ever been!

Who can I talk to, and where can I go where I won't be judged or feel shame? Let me reassure you now- not everyone gets access to your heart and story! Today I dive into the very FIRST step of finding freedom, and that is finding and creating safe spaces in your life.

I still have TWO coach-in-your-back-pocket spots in October! Let's connect! (https://forms.gle/fpuCrJMTfHH33PoL6) Have you ever stopped to consider the thoughts and stories you let race through your brain all day? Can you answer the question, What are you thinking about your marriage? Or the affair? Or yourself? I want to challenge you to consider that your thoughts about a situation are not Truth. But you CAN pause and consider- are these thoughts serving me well? Are they Truth? Or should I gain some clarification and more insight? Your thoughts shape your life. It's time you start listening to them. And always remember: You are not alone! xoxo, KristinaJoy Next Steps: Interested in coaching? Let's Connect (It's FREE!)

I'm opening up THREE coach-in-your-back-pocket spots in October! Let's connect! (https://forms.gle/fpuCrJMTfHH33PoL6) One of the greatest pieces of advice I've been given on my journey is: Honesty is kindness. It took me a while to grow into that, but when I did, it radically changed things for me. It all starts with honesty. Yes, speaking truth instead of lies, but also speaking UP instead of hiding in fear and shame. Who do you need to be more honest with right now?

ONE spot left to begin coaching in September! Let's connect HERE! One of the biggest lessons I learned after confessing my affair and beginning my healing journey was that God wasn't interested in an agenda. He was not in a hurry for me to heal. He was after my heart, and He wanted me to slow down enough to hear Him. So what did I do while 3 kids were in school and the baby was napping? I sat at my kitchen table and opened my Bible. I didn't have a plan to follow. I just listened for what He had been highlighting to me, and I looked for it in His Word. And He spoke to me in His Word. And sister- He wants to speak to you too. Let's dig in! Always remember: You are not alone! xoxo, KristinaJoy Next Steps: Interested in coaching? Let's Connect (It's FREE!)

Friend, I am so grateful Jesus was a human just like us. That means I can study Scripture to see what He did, and I want to do that too! One thing Jesus did was have regular times of REST.

Sometimes you don't need another 3 point sermon; you just need someone to sit and hold your heart. Today, I just want to sit and share some thoughts I've had while reading a life-changing book, Quenched. I pray that these thoughts challenge you in the deepest parts to know God more fully and get a clearer picture of how He sees you. (Hint: It's NOT with disgust!) I pray you feel loved and seen, and that this encourages your healing journey. You were rescued and set FREE! It's time to walk in the freedom.

So much of it is confusing, and it probably doesn't even apply to you today! Even though I was raised in the Christian world, the Bible felt dry for most of my life.

Friend, I'm going to spare you the long introduction today. I did something I never dreamed I was capable of. And then I finally hit my rock bottom. BUT GOD. Jesus was so incredibly kind and gracious, and he rescued me from my own mess. He pulled me out of the fire. He saved me from all of the damage I caused and was about to cause. So please be blessed by my story. Be encouraged, you are not alone. Be strengthened, that you need to make things right with such urgency as a life or death situation.

Sister, Do you ever read the Bible and think, "Yes! That's so me!" Or the opposite, "There is NO way I could do that!" You may fall in one of those two camps today as we look at Psalm 105:1. Maybe you're ready to "Let the whole world know what God has done," or maybe you're still wondering when God is going to show up in your story. Either way, this verse has 3 commands that apply to all of us. And I'd love to hear your takeaway, too!

Friend, Did you remember there's a war going on all around us? Satan is out for your family, your attention, and any part of your life he can get. But the good news is- you are not alone! Habakkuk wrote a book in the Bible about his conversation with God when his country was at war. And God told him it was about to go from bad to worse! But isn't our God good- He wove hope into the entire conversation along with reminders of truth about who He was and is. So if your situation feels so bleak and discouraging right now, grab your Bible and find Habakkuk- God has a word for you today!

The things I preached, the values I held to, the Bible stories I believed in- none of it lined up with how I was choosing to live my life during my affair. So today I break it down for you: What is it, how do you know if you have it, and how do you get out of it?! I'd love to hear your thoughts after the show! I pray you experience the love of Christ today! xoxo, KristinaJoy Next steps: NEW community! www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity WEBSITE UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Sister Friend, Are you struggling to rebuild trust with your husband? You're committed to your marriage, but you're not sure exactly what to do or how to keep growing? I remember facing difficult decisions, having hard conversations, and asking what would help us heal the best way possible. So in today's episode, I want to talk about rebuilding trust, prioritizing your marriage, and making difficult decisions. Your actions need to line up with your words because you are 100% committed to truth and trust-building now. Let's dig in together- I pray this blesses you, and I'd love to help however I can! I pray you experience the love of Christ today! xoxo, KristinaJoy Next steps: NEW community! www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity Email me: kristina@kristinajoycoaching.com
Girlfriend! Grab your favorite (non-alcoholic) drink- I can't wait for you to meet my friend Ashley! She is a Sober Coach for people trying to break unhealthy drinking patterns, and she has a similar passion like me for helping women find true freedom in their life! What drew me to Ashley when we first met, was that we used similar language: addiction, shame, labels, recovery, freedom. But while I talk about the affair addiction, she talks about it with substances. What a beautiful community that understands the need to put God first and find healing! In today's conversation, we talk about: True freedom from the issue and not "willing" it away. The role your brain plays when your body is doing "new" things. Your identity and how the words you use to label yourself can empower you or keep you stuck. Pull a chair up to the table- let's dig in! I pray you experience the love of Christ today! xoxo, KristinaJoy Connect with Ashley: Instagram: @ashley.sobercoach Bio: www.holyhopecoaching.com Next steps: NEW community! www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity Email me: kristina@kristinajoycoaching.com
