Has anyone ever told you "you should be over it by now"? 

In Episode 23 of Graced for the Journey, I'm offering my sincerest apology on behalf of anyone who's ever made you feel like your grief has an expiration date.

Today, we're busting the dangerous myth that "time heals all wounds." Because here's the truth: time alone doesn't heal grief—it just makes you better at surviving it.

Real healing requires the right tools, proper support, and most importantly, permission to grieve at YOUR pace - not someone else's timeline.

In this episode, I share:

• Why "you should be over it by now" is one of the most harmful things you can say to someone grieving

• The difference between surviving grief and actually healing from it

• Why your grief timeline doesn't have to match anyone else's

• What real healing looks like (spoiler: you'll still have moments of sadness, and that's okay)

• My personal story of losing my daughter Marie and discovering that healing is possible

Whether you've experienced child loss, miscarriage, divorce, job loss, or you're grieving a life that didn't turn out the way you planned—your pain is valid. You don't have to "just get over it," but you also don't have to stay stuck in survival mode forever.

You have permission to grieve. You have permission to take your time. And you also have permission to heal.
