Ranked Top 2.5% Globally
Do you ever wish someone would truly see you, not look past you or through you?
Are you lying awake at night wondering if your marriage can survive infidelity...or if it’s time to let go?
Are you exhausted from Googling answers, trying to fix things, and still feeling unheard, unseen, and stuck in shame
You’re not alone. And you’re in the right place.
This podcast is a sacred, steady space for women navigating betrayal, emotional disconnection, separation, or the aftermath of an affair, who want more than surface-level faith answers. Here, we talk honestly about the heart, the body, the soul, and the brain, and what it actually looks like to let Jesus heal what’s been wounded.
I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Kristina Joy, forgiven daughter of Jesus, mom, and coach. For years, I tried to break free from my own infidelity through sheer willpower, "doing more," and striving to be better. I read my Bible more. I tried to behave my way into freedom. None of it worked.
Everything changed when I stopped trying to fix myself and allowed Jesus to meet me in the deeper places like my pain, my patterns, my unmet needs. Through prayer, research, embodied healing practices, and new rhythms of truth and grace, I discovered real freedom. Not just from the affair, but from shame, secrecy, and self-abandonment.
On this podcast, you’ll find:
- A reminder that your dignity, worth, and identity are not up for debate
- Emotional and nervous-system awareness for real transformation
- Coaching guidance for clarity, boundaries, communication, and trust
- Gentle truth for women deciding what restoration actually means for them
Whether your marriage is being rebuilt or released, you are allowed to heal. You are allowed to choose freedom. You are allowed to become whole.
If you’re ready to:
Stop living in secrecy and self-condemnation
Experience God’s love without fear or striving
Break familiar patterns for good
Live with clarity, strength, dignity, and peace
Then take a breath, find your safe space, and press play.
This is where healing begins and where you come home to yourself, with Jesus.

You were created for connection. But somewhere along the line, your Enemy tried to steal it. He tried to disconnect you from others, from God, and even from yourself. But not today! Let's chat about what happens when the Enemy lies to you and why community is really that important.

Jumping in today to a difficult question and answer- Is it okay if I still miss my affair partner? And the (short) answer is- yes! But then I would challenge you to dig in a bit deeper.
-How are you giving yourself space to ride out the emotions like you ride out a snow storm?
-What are you believing about the affair? About the partner? About yourself? About your marriage?
-Have you ever written out your whys for why you chose to end the affair? And why you chose to commit to your marriage?

One of the first questions in my healing journey was around my identity: who am I now? And more importantly, who does God say I am? So often we look at what we DO for a job or what we accomplish. But what if my identity isn't about my actions? That's great news for those of us who have struggled!
Join me today as I use Colossians 3 to answer those questions and more! Where are you? Who are you? And what can I do based off that?
I pray you experience the love of Christ today!

Sister, Do you resonate with this? 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.

Let's be honest, healing is sort of like an onion. Just when you think it's going to be smooth sailing, then it's time to peel back another layer.
Today, I share about a time I almost relapsed, but this time I had a plan. And I had wise counsel who almost made me cry on an airplane. So let's shed that shame and lean in to the hard and holy work of taking every thought captive.
Check out the Facebook community where we can be that safe space for the scary moments!
I pray you experience the love of Christ today!

I get it: the day starts, you get everyone out the door, you're off to work, then you're home for homework, dinner, baths, and bed, and then you crash into bed with any ounce of energy you have left. And for what? To get up and do it again tomorrow?
I promise you, friend- there IS a better way! Today, let's talk about eliminating hurry, and creating space for the things that matter.
You matter. Your marriage matters. Your children matter. Your time matters. Let's take them back instead of letting the temptation of hurry take control.
Oh and don't forget to check out the Facebook community where we can cheer you on!
