In this episode, I’m joined by Kirsten D. Samuel.

Kirsten is a Christ-centered coach, author, and speaker who empowers women blindsided by a spouse’s porn use to find peace, confidence, and hope in Christ.

A certified coach through the International Christian Coaching Institute and a former school administrator, she brings both professional insight and personal experience to her work. Kirsten is the author of Choosing a Way Out: When the Bottom Isn’t the Bottom, sharing how God met her in her darkest season and restored what felt beyond repair.

An international speaker and advocate for women healing from betrayal, she speaks with deep compassion and gentle truth. Wife to Dave, mother of three, and grandmother of fifteen, Kirsten’s heart is to remind women they are deeply loved, have God-given worth, and that healing is always possible.
