How Do You Move Through Grief Without Moving On? | Meryl Russo

How Do You Move Through Grief Without Moving On? | Meryl Russo

Grief does not ask you to move on, it invites you to find a compassionate way to keep living while honoring what has changed. Laura welcomes grief coach Meryl Russo for a deeply human conversation about loss, emotional expression, and the healing power of being witnessed.

Meryl shares how losing her mother at twenty-six shaped her understanding of grief and ultimately became the runway for her life’s work. Together, she and Laura explore the many forms loss can take, from death and divorce to illness, identity shifts, and unexpected change. They reveal why suppressed emotions continue to surface, how safe community can loosen grief’s grip, and why there is no correct timeline or destination for healing. This conversation reframes asking for help as an act of courage, while reminding women that the first person they approach may not be the person equipped to hold their pain.

Healing is not about erasing what happened or returning to who you were. It is about giving yourself permission to feel, receive support, create a new normal, and live fully in the life that is still here.

What You’ll Hear:

  • The subtle difference between moving on from a loss and continuing forward while honoring what mattered.
  • Why emotions that remain unspoken often find other ways to express themselves through the body, behavior, or coping patterns.
  • How being witnessed by one safe person can soften isolation and create room to breathe again.
  • The deeper courage required to keep asking for support when someone is unable to meet you in your grief.
  • A compassionate reframing of healing as an ongoing relationship with yourself rather than a destination to reach.
