In a world where we're told to "just move on," we are fed the lie that grief is something to get over—and that if we can't, there must be something wrong with us.

But here's the thing: Grief is not a problem to be fixed. And feeling stuck in life after loss is not a personal failing.

In this hour, you'll learn three ways to stop feeling stuck and start moving forward. Instead of treating grief as something to get over, I'll show you how to build a life you love from the life loss forced you to live—without faking a smile or being forced to forget your loved one(s) who died.
