Grieving the Life I thought I'd Have with Lanasia Angelina

Send us a text

In this deeply honest and heartfelt episode, Angel Morel sits down with her friend and sister in Christ, Lanasia Angelina — life coach, business strategist, two-time author, and transformational speaker — for a raw conversation about grieving the life we thought we’d have.

Together, they unpack what it means to let go of expectations, timelines, and versions of life that didn’t go as planned — from relationships and friendships to career goals and personal dreams. Through laughter, tears, and truth, Angel and Lanasia show that two things can be true: you can love your life and still grieve the parts that look different than you imagined.

Lanasia shares how faith, positive self-talk, and gratitude have helped her find peace in the present moment. The two also open up about their own past struggles with suicidal thoughts and how therapy, prayer, and community became lifelines in their healing journeys.

By the end of this episode, you’ll be reminded that healing isn’t about “getting over it” — it’s about learning to see beauty in the life you have right now.

• Two things can be true: acceptance and disappointment.
• Healing grows through community — you don’t have to do it alone.
