"I also know I don't have YEARS to work this out."
Why not? If you love her so much, then there is no timeline.
"I just want to make sure I am hearing her and validating her in every interaction we have. I want her to smile and say, "Wow, it feels good to be validated and heard at last. I know you all know what I mean. I'd love to see her shine again.""
What do you mean ""I" want to make sure" and ""I" want her to smile..." and ""I'd love to see her shine again"?
You're just thinking again about what YOU want and not her.
