Icloud Relay Not forwarding

I made the mistake of using my github that I made with my icloud relay email to sign up for cloudflare. I'm running into the issue of my relay not forwarding my cloudflare emails to my icloud. I can't change the email because I used my Github to sign up for the account, so I don't know the password. I can't reset the password because the emails arn't forwarding. Is there a fix?

Often, adding a secondary email to your Apple Account and toggling the forwarding target forces the relay to unblock the path.

Go to your Apple Account Settings on your iPhone or Mac.
Select Sign-In & Security and add a secondary, temporary email address (like a secondary Gmail or Outlook address).
Go back to your Apple Account settings, tap iCloud, and select Hide My Email.
Scroll to the bottom and select Forward To.
Change the target from your primary iCloud inbox to the newly added secondary email.
Go back to cloud fare and trigger the password reset or login code email.
Check the secondary inbox. Once you regain access, you can change your "Forward To" target back to your primary iCloud address.
