The go-to podcast for Christian women who are ready to heal their hearts, shed their shame, and come home to freedom in Christ.
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.

  • 108 | Waiting to Heal After Your Affair? Here’s What It’s Really Costing You
    Mar 24 2026

    🌻 Join the Spring Clean With God for FREE here!

    Have you been telling yourself it’s not the right time to heal yet?

    In this episode, I talk about the quiet cost of waiting and why silence often deepens shame, disconnection, and emotional exhaustion instead of protecting us. This conversation reframes healing as a container for support, not a decision about your marriage.

    You’ll hear:

    • Why waiting to heal can quietly cost more than we realize
    • How silence impacts self-trust, intimacy, and spiritual connection
    • Why healing doesn’t require certainty, permission, or urgency
    • The difference between delaying healing and choosing compassionate movement
    • A gentle invitation to begin, without pressure or fear

    If you’re realizing something feels missing, or you’re tired of carrying your healing quietly, I’d love to connect.

    You’re allowed to begin right where you are.

  • 107 | Why It Feels Like God (or Life) Is Punishing You After Your Affair
    Mar 19 2026

    🌻 Join the Spring Clean With God for FREE here!

    After an affair, many women quietly carry the belief that ongoing pain is their punishment, that joy would be inappropriate, blessings should be withheld, and suffering proves repentance.

    In this episode, I name and gently dismantle The Punishment Lie, the idea that healing must hurt in order to count. We explore the difference between responsibility and self-punishment, how shame shows up in the body, and what Scripture actually says about repentance, restoration, and God’s heart toward you.

    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    • Why shame keeps you stuck even after confession
    • How self-punishment masquerades as holiness
    • The nervous-system impact of carrying chronic blame
    • A more accurate, compassionate picture of God’s restorative design
    • A gentle reflection to help you release unnecessary suffering

    If you’re realizing that silence, shame, or self-punishment has been quietly costing you peace, clarity, or intimacy with God, I’d love to connect with you.

  • 106 | I confessed my affair...so why do I still feel stuck while doing all the right things?
    Mar 10 2026

    If you’ve done all the “right things” after an affair- therapy, confession, accountability, prayer, and still feel heavy, confused, or disconnected from yourself...this episode is for you.

    In this conversation, I talk about why healing can feel incomplete, even when you’re trying so hard. And how managing your healing is very different from actually feeling it. This isn’t about doing more or fixing yourself. It’s about learning how to let God meet you in your real emotions, not just your behavior.

    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    • Why healing can stall when we focus on performance instead of presence
    • How “doing everything right” can still leave you disconnected from yourself
    • The difference between managing your healing and actually feeling it
    • Why God isn’t asking you to rush, prove, or perfect your recovery
    • A gentle reflection to help you notice where you might be avoiding your own heart

    If you’re realizing something still feels missing, or you’re tired of carrying your healing quietly, I’d love to connect with you.
