110 | Do I need STD testing after infidelity? The conversation no one is having

from Intimacy After Infidelity | Cut Contact, Rebuild Trust, Shed Shame, Avoid Divorce, Forgiveness for Adultery · host Kristina Joy | Affair Recovery Coach, Spiritual Healing, Emotional Healing

There’s a part of affair recovery that rarely gets talked about, but it matters. Today, we’re having an honest, compassionate conversation about the physical realities, including whether STD testing is something to consider. So much of this journey focuses on the emotional, spiritual, and relational healing, but your body matters too. In this episode, we gently explore what it looks like to care for your physical health without spiraling into fear or shame. I share my own wake-up moment that made this reality feel very real, the emotions that can surface around this topic, and how to approach it with wisdom, honesty, and grounded peace. We explore: - Why STD testing can feel overwhelming or triggering - The shame, denial, and avoidance many women experience around this topic - Why avoiding the question doesn’t protect you—but clarity can - How to approach this with wisdom, not fear - How to hold the tension between God’s grace and real-life consequences - What it looks like to invite God into even the most uncomfortable decisions If you’ve been avoiding this question or feeling unsure what to do next, this episode will help you take a grounded, compassionate step forward 🤍   Let’s Work Together: www.kristinajoycoaching.com/apply  Facebook community: www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity Instagram: www.instagram.com/kristinajoycoaching Email: [email protected]
