🌊 Curious about the Encounter Retreat? Email me RETREAT and let’s chat! (PS- You get 6 months in the Rooted Community for free! 🤭) Am I doing this right? How do I know if I'm actually healing? And what am I even working toward? Most women in affair recovery are measuring themselves against a scoreboard they never agreed to. One where the only metric is whether the marriage survived. Today I want to hand you a different one. I share exactly what I believed success looked like in my early healing (repair the marriage, make it better than ever, lead a ministry together), why that definition broke, and what I know now instead. We explore: Why a definition of success that requires another person's cooperation isn't a definition  What "healed" actually means The markers I look for in women who are genuinely healing Where I stand on marriage and reconciliation Reclamation vs. recovery Why abundant life is the real scoreboard Your one step: write down your definition of success in this season. Not what anyone else says. Yours. Then email it to me! I read every one and I write back. And if you look at what you wrote and think "I don't know how to get there from here," that's exactly what a Breakthrough Call is for. Or email me RETREAT and let's talk about September. 🕊️ Let's Connect: 📞 Book your private Breakthrough Call: https://learn.kristinajoycoaching.com/breakthrough  💌 Email: [email protected]
