You\u2019re trying to heal something you don\u2019t even understand.\u201d In this episode of Grieve That Sh!t, Sharon Brubaker, grief specialist and founder of The Grief School, breaks down the real reason so many people feel stuck in their grief. After losing her nephew Austin, Sharon learned that grief isn\u2019t just about loss. It\u2019s about what happens when you\u2019re left trying to survive something no one ever taught you how to process. No one gave you the language. No one gave you the instructions. And now you\u2019re trying to figure it out while you\u2019re in it. In this episode, Sharon walks through why grief feels so overwhelming, how misinformation and avoidance keep it stuck, and why staying busy, pushing it down, or trying to \u201cget over it\u201d only makes it louder over time. She also explains how grief actually works in your body and mind, why the pain keeps coming back, and what it really takes to move through it. This conversation is not about doing grief perfectly. It\u2019s about understanding it. Because when you understand your grief, you stop fighting yourself.
