Is This Healing… or Just Hiding? Signs You Might Be Avoiding Your Grief

If you’ve ever felt like you're functioning but not truly healing… this episode is for you.

Grief has a way of convincing us to pretend we’re okay—especially when everyone around us seems to be moving on. But behind the “I’m fine” mask, your heart might be crying out for something deeper.

In this episode, Teresa explores 5 faith-based signs that reveal the difference between real healing and quiet avoidance. You’ll learn how emotional masking, spiritual bypassing, and performance-based grief can keep you stuck—and how to begin opening up to true restoration.

You’ll also hear a powerful message from a grieving mom who found community, truth, and peace inside The Grief Roadmap.

---

In this episode:

• Why pretending to be okay might be delaying your healing

• 5 subtle signs that you’re hiding instead of healing

• What Scripture says about being honest with your grief

• How community can help you grieve in truth—not in silence

• Why you don’t have to walk through this alone
