Thank you Kristin!

I think Kristin deserves a lot of thank you's and kudos for her excellent podcast work, and now the wrap up. The podcast has served as one of  my only connections to people outside of my situation, a complete lifesaver. Her last two broadcasts were especially touching. Thank you Kristin for everything!

Re: Thank you Kristin!

I agree! I am so grateful to the podcast and this website/forum for providing the support that I needed during my darkest times. Previously, I had spent an absurd amount of time on various marriage and sex forums, never finding help, information, or stories quite close enough to what I was looking for. I'm still navigating this journey and recalibrating my reality, but wouldn't be half as "sane" as I am now without the podcast!

Re: Thank you Kristin!

Hello Kristin,

I hope you’re able to still see messages on this forum. I only recently listened to your last two podcasts.
I wanted you to know that the support group I meet with through Our Path all spoke about the gratitude and sadness we felt for the final episodes.
Listening to your own story, the journey you have taken was both deeply meaningful and vulnerable. Reminding us that there are no answers but only choices on moving forward.  Your acknowledgement of the last thirty years of this chapter . Thank you for choosing to show up for others in your deep grief. The podcasts were a life line for me and no doubt many others. Often I would awake in the night with a sense of dread and find some solace in listening to those interviews.  Your realization that we need to find support with one another who have travelled this experience, as we can relate in ways others may not be able to.   I am and will be eternally gratefull for your contribution to this community. I pray you find that way forward and learn that after all that soul searching you know you  already had everything you need within you. And if it is in your vision I pray someone as wonderful as you will enter your life.  This is one of my favorite Ram Dass quotes:
“I’m not interested in being a lover. I’m interested in only being love.”
You are love Kristin. Thank you
