Why You Can’t Just “Move On”—And What to Do Instead 🖤

You’ve tried journaling. You’ve tried “staying busy.” But deep down, you’re still grieving something—or someone—you thought you were over. Why does it still hurt? Why hasn’t time done its job?

In this powerful episode of Project Loving Myself, Sanaiyah is joined by Dr. Michelle Peticolas, award-winning filmmaker, international best-selling author of Step Into Your Brilliance, and life transformation coach for high-achieving women navigating grief and loss. Together, they unpack what’s really going on when we feel stuck in pain that seems to last forever.

Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or emotional abandonment from childhood, Dr. Michelle explains how complex grief embeds itself in the body—and how to finally release it using emotional awareness, body-based healing, and her signature SERVE method.

If you've been stuck in a loop of heartbreak, repeating the same emotional patterns, or feeling like your grief is “too big” to ever get over—this conversation is your turning point.
