About this episode
Kristina Joy discusses the challenges of moving on from the past and the importance of grieving while transitioning to new seasons of life.
You know you need to move on.You’ve made the decision. You’ve done the work. So why do you still feel stuck? Why are you still asking why can't I let go? Today, I break down what's actually happening when transition feels hard (or impossible), why grief after a right decision is not failure, and the practical difference between waiting for healing and choosing it. Let’s look at Ecclesiastes 3, Isaiah 43, and Philippians 3 to see what God says about new seasons of life and new chapters. We’ll explore: Why grieving a season you chose to leave is not a sign something's wrong Naming the thoughts that keep you looking backward Why transition requires both time and a decision (and which one comes first) How to use The Model to find your sovereignty in a season that feels out of control You were never meant to navigate this alone. Come find your people. 🕊️ Let's Connect: 🌿 Let’s Work Together: www.kristinajoycoaching.com/apply 💬 Facebook community: www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity 📲 Instagram: www.instagram.com/kristinajoycoaching 💌 Email: kristina@kristinajoycoaching.com
