Although that advice was about business, I immediately saw the appliction to my life and marriage. So when you look at your life today, are you happy with where things are? Or do you wish things could be different? What work are you willing to put in to make the change?

I learned this Self-Coaching Model from Brooke Castillo, and it radically changed my thinking about what I'm responsible for. I can't wait to share it with you!
I pray you experience the love of Christ today!xoxo,KristinaJoy

17 | Words We Never Thought We’d Say: Similarities Between Affairs, Addictions, Recovery, and Healing

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

13 | How To Spend 10-15 Hours a Week With Your Husband to Rebuild Intimacy and Trust

Friend,
Do you ever hear recommendations and think, there's NO way I could do that! I used to think that when someone told me- healthy marriage have couples that spend 10-15 hours a week together. This is intentional, face-to-face time where you can communicate and grow together. Cue all the excuses: kids, time, money, sleep! 
But then I got serious about my marriage. I wanted to invest in it and show my husband he was a priority to me. After all, when we were dating, we spent tons of time together! Why not now?
So in today's episode, I break down the hours with some suggestions of how it could practically work for you. Need more suggestions or want to talk about how it would look in your situation? Book a FREE call and let's work through a plan together!
I pray you experience the love of Christ today!

12 | What if I Feel Shame When the Bible Talks About Adultery? How I Found Freedom

Mama,
True confession: there are still parts of the Bible that I do NOT want to read because I'm afraid of the shame and conviction creeping back up! Proverbs 7 was one of those that came up in my reading plan- all about the "immoral woman."
BUT GOD met me even there! When I was willing to be open and take my emotions to Him, He showed me a beautiful scene of redemption, rescuing, and safety. He is so good, I just had to share it and encourage you as well.
I pray you experience the love of Christ today!

11 | Making ”The Joy Of The Lord Is My Strength” True For You, Mama!

Friend,
We could all use a little more JOY in our life, wouldn't you agree? There are enough things fighting for our attention between social media, the news, and just hard things that enter our lives. You know a fruit of the Spirit is Joy, but have you ever wondered what it is and how do you get it? And maybe you've been in a season of hurt and pain so long, you're not even sure you could ever experience Joy again.
There is HOPE, dear one! If there was Joy for King David (who had an affair and murdered her husband), then I guarantee there is Joy for you today. Let's dive in and learn what it is, how you can get it, and why you even want it. Then come and let me know what you're going to do with it!
I pray you experience the love of Christ!
xoxo,
Kristina

10 | Pt 2 Lamenting as a Christian Because God Feels Absent

Hey there Sister!
 
After wrapping up Episode 8, lamenting your circumstances, God revealed even more depth to me as I saw connections between Psalm 42, Psalm 43, and Psalm 77! I was so encouraged that I couldn't wait to share it with you too.
 
After you've taken a shot at sitting in your own lament, you might be asking, NOW WHAT?! God still feels absent. Your relationship with heaven doesn't feel any more refreshing. Yes, dear, even this season has a purpose. And that's exactly what I want to tell you in today's episode!
 
I pray you experience the love of Christ!
xoxo,
Kristina
