Healing can feel unexpectedly lonely once the crisis passes and life returns to “normal.” Today, I talk honestly about a part of affair recovery that almost no one is addressing- the physical realities. Including whether STD testing is something you should consider.

We often focus on the emotional, spiritual, and relational healing...but what about your physical health? This episode gently explores that question with compassion, honesty, and wisdom.

I share my own experience of a wake-up moment that made the physical consequences feel very real, the emotions that can come up around this topic, and how to approach it without shame or fear.

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 🤍
