Are you Googling ways to communicate and connect with your husband, but you’re still not feeling heard? Do you lay awake at night wondering if your marriage can survive infidelity or what’s the first step to file for divorce? Your vows are broken, and you’re so full of shame that you’re sure there’s no way God or your husband could possibly forgive you. I am so grateful you’re here! This podcast will help you find hope, get a grasp on your emotions at a deeper level, and learn how to get raw and honest with God like your life depends on it- because it does. 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, Mom, and Coach. 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 life can be way better than it ever was before. Get ready- let’s rebuild your intimacy better than it’s ever been!

After an affair, it’s easy to withdraw, thinking you're protecting yourself or others. But withdraw turned isolation keeps you stuck, while solitude creates space for healing.
In this episode, we explore the subtle but powerful difference between the two. You’ll learn how to recognize when you're numbing or hiding, how to build healthy rhythms of solitude with God, and why safe community is essential to your healing after infidelity. This is for the woman who feels lost, disconnected, and unsure how to re-engage without shame.

If you’ve been trying to fix your marriage, your emotions, or your image… and you're exhausted, this episode is for you. Healing doesn’t start when everyone else changes- it starts when you slow down enough to listen to you. In today’s honest conversation, I’ll share how I stopped overfunctioning, started trusting the Holy Spirit within me, and began healing from the inside out.
The first step isn’t doing more—it’s getting radically honest.

Sister, this episode has the MOST downloads of all time, so I know that it resonates with many of you!
Are you stuck in an affair and wondering how to get out? 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. These could be by yourself, but I also give a few ideas about safe people and safe physical places. Until you feel safe, you’ll stay stuck and unable to move forward towards freedom.
Remember: you are not alone!
I pray you experience the love of Christ!
xoxo,
Kristina

Friend, if you follow my Instagram stories (@kristinajoycoaching) then you know I've begun working with a fitness coach. I've worked with personal trainers before, but in this season of life, it's hitting differently.
Having walked through several years of a healing journey, I found so many similarities between the personal growth of my heart + soul and the growth of my physical health.
So today, let me be a tour guide that tells you what's ahead. I pray you're encouraged and motivated to take YOUR next right step. I'm cheering for you!
Always remember: You are not alone!
xoxo,
KristinaJoy

Sister, today's episode is unique because I want you to think about sharing it with a friend. Is there something you wish your friend knew about your marriage or affair? Or is there something you want them to understand now that it's in your past? These are my top 8 things I wished my friends knew before, during, and after my infidelity. I pray they help you begin a conversation and reconcile a relationship.
SHAME wants to keep you hiding. I'm here to help you expose what's in the dark so you can begin to walk in Truth and freedom.
Always remember: You are not alone!
xoxo,

Friend, I'm getting honest here and sharing a few of the lies I believed during and after my affair. In my healing journey, I've learned to 1) become aware of my thoughts and 2) repent of the lies I come into agreement with.

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

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?
And always remember: You are not alone!
xoxo,
KristinaJoy
