moved on

Left it behind

Moved on means to have left something behind—physically, emotionally, or mentally.

After a breakup, someone who has moved on no longer dwells on the former partner.

In conversation, We've moved on signals a topic change.

It can also mean progressing to the next stage: The team moved on to the finals.

The phrase often carries a sense of healthy closure or forward momentum.
