In this powerful episode of Healing Starts with the Heart, grief specialist Sharon Brubaker challenges one of the most common myths about grief: that time alone will heal all wounds. With raw honesty and deep personal reflection, Sharon explores the ways time affects grief—not by erasing pain, but by revealing the spaces where healing is still needed.

She shares her own journey of realizing just how long it has been since she last saw and spoke to her loved ones, and the surprising emotions that surfaced when she did the math. If you've ever wondered why your grief still feels fresh after months or even years, this episode will provide clarity, validation, and a new perspective on how to navigate healing with intention.

• The Myth of Time as a Healer
  Why waiting for time to "fix" grief often leads to more frustration and heartache.

• What Time Actually Does
  Time reveals unresolved pain, surfaces hidden emotions, and shows us where healing still needs attention.

• The Power of Intentional Healing
  Healing doesn’t happen passively—it requires action, awareness, and willingness to face the grief head-on.

• Softening vs. Healing
  Time may soften the edges of grief, but true healing comes when we actively engage in our healing journey.

• What has time revealed to you about your grief?

• What emotions resurface for you again and again?

• How can you lean into your grief with intention instead of waiting for time to pass?
