Changed my password yesterday and now I’m locked out – Please help

I changed the password yesterday in our WordPress site and now cannot get back in.
I then tried to use Forgot Password (with my username and all three of my email addresses) and have not received an email back to reset it.Site: (email visible only to moderators and staff)/.

Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your website. However, your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted elsewhere.
Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
https://wordpress.org/support/ is a great resource for sites using the open source WordPress.org software, and you can find support for that at: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
And, they do have some options for you at https://wordpress.org/support/article/resetting-your-password/
Your hosting provider’s support team may also be able to assist.
