NEW Community Group Coaching starting Monday October 20! Reach out on Instagram for more information.

You’re not crazy for still thinking about him, and you don’t have to stay stuck. In this episode I explain the neuroscience behind intrusive thoughts, help you name what you’re really missing, and teach practical, faith-filled tools to interrupt old loops and create new, healing associations. This includes somatic practices, a visual “leaf on the river” exercise, and coaching prompts you can use today.

You’ll learn:

• Why your brain keeps replaying memories

• How to distinguish what you miss from who he really is

• Practical tools to interrupt obsessive thoughts and rewire your brain

• How to grieve without staying stuck and meet your deeper needs safely

• A short, cognitive and spiritual anchor to help take every thought captive

If you’ve ever thought, “I should feel guiltier… I should regret this more…” this episode is for you.

I share my personal story of how guilt once kept me chained to shame and how learning the difference between guilt and responsibility changed everything.

You’ll learn: ✨ The difference between shame, guilt, and true responsibility ✨ Why punishing yourself is not the same as repentance ✨ How God’s kindness, not condemnation, leads to real change ✨ The identity shift that happens when you stop “should-ing” yourself ✨ Practical ways to walk in freedom, forgiveness, and grace

This episode is an invitation to stop punishing yourself and start healing through radical self-compassion and the truth of who God says you are.

🎧 Whether you’re in the early days after disclosure or years into rebuilding, this is your reminder: You can’t shame your way to healing. But you can love your way there.

Have you ever asked yourself, “Will I ever feel fully loved again after what happened?”

In this episode, I share my raw journey of what it felt like to stay in a marriage after betrayal: the fear, the constriction, the loneliness. I’ll also walk you through the turning point that shifted everything: discovering my worth in Christ, learning to get radically honest in prayer, and finding new ways of healing that went beyond waiting for my husband to change.

This episode will encourage you if you’ve felt unseen, unloved, or stuck in shame. You’ll discover that intimacy after infidelity begins with God, with yourself, and with a love that can never be taken away.

You’ll learn: ✨ Why your healing can’t depend on whether your husband changes or not ✨ How Scripture + somatic healing opened the door to freedom for me ✨ What to do if you’re still feeling lonely even though your husband stayed ✨ A powerful practice to feel God’s love and safety right now ✨ Why true intimacy begins with you and God before it’s rebuilt with your spouse

This isn’t just about saving your marriage. It’s about reclaiming your voice, your worth, and your identity in Christ.

🎧 Whether you’re just beginning the healing process or you’ve been carrying the weight of betrayal for years, this episode is a reminder that God’s love is unconditional, secure, and always enough.

Do you know for sure if you’re saved? Not if you’ve been religious, gone to church, or tried to be a good person, but if you have truly received salvation through Jesus Christ?

In this episode, I share my personal story of coming to know Jesus, from a childhood prayer, to wrestling with doubt, to experiencing a whole new level of surrender after my affair and baptism. I connect my own testimony with the clear gospel message: that Jesus, the Son of God, lived a perfect life, died for our sins, rose again, and offers us the free gift of salvation if we will receive it.

You’ll learn: ✨ The difference between religion and relationship with Jesus ✨ Why salvation isn’t about trying harder but receiving His free gift ✨ How my affair + baptism became a living picture of being rescued from sin and shame ✨ A simple step-by-step explanation of the gospel ✨ A prayer you can pray if you’re ready to receive Jesus personally

This isn’t just for women who don’t yet know Christ. It’s also a reminder for anyone who’s been stuck in shame, doubt, or “trying to be enough” that your identity and hope are secure in Him.

🎧 Whether you’ve never prayed for salvation or you just need reassurance of what’s true, this episode is a fresh invitation to experience Jesus’ love and freedom.

After an affair, the word boundaries can feel heavy, like walls, restrictions, or even punishments. But what if boundaries weren’t about fear, but about love?

In this episode, I unpack what boundaries really are (and what they’re not) and show you the three essential types of boundaries every woman needs after infidelity: ✨ Boundaries with the affair partner ✨ Boundaries with friends and community ✨ Boundaries with your spouse

You’ll learn how to set boundaries that actually protect your peace, how to communicate them with clarity, and what to do when someone doesn’t respect them. By the end, you’ll have one practical step you can take today to feel safer, clearer, and more free in your healing journey.

Have you ever felt invisible, discarded, or like no one understands what you’ve been through? In this episode, I share how the God, who saw Hagar in the wilderness, is the same God who sees, hears, and responds to you. He's El Roi, even in your wilderness.

We’ll explore how being seen by God changes everything about how you live, love, and heal after an affair. You’ll walk away knowing you are never truly alone and how to open yourself up to His provision and promises.

When people you love, even people in the church, don’t show up for you in your hardest seasons, the ache runs deep.

In this episode, I share my own story of unmet expectations, quiet grief, and how Jesus became my true Good Samaritan: seeing me, stopping for me, and carrying me when others passed by.

You’ll learn how to hold grief and gratitude together, release bitterness, and receive the healing presence of Jesus in places where people fell short.

You know he’s not good for you, so why do you still think about him?

If you've ever found yourself craving attention, safety, or affection from someone who hurt you, this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m unpacking:

- How I started to recognize addictive patterns and anxious attachment

- What your cravings are really trying to tell you

- Why your nervous system might chase the familiar, even when it’s painful

- How to respond with love, not shame, and take your next right step forward

This isn’t about self-sabotage. It’s about healing the real need underneath the craving and gently coming home to yourself and God.

You’re not too much. You’re not too far gone. And you don’t have to do this alone.
