after changing the config url to https I can no longer log into the admin part of the site
I think you're probably entering a bad password. The SSL is working (you can tell since when you click "login" you see the activity spinner).

In addition when I try to reset the site password I am not getting any of the emails
Like I mentioned above - this sounds like an email issue - you need to check your email delivery log. You're not on Jamroom Hosting so I cannot tell you how to do that, but your hosting provider should have some way to view your email activity so you can see what is being delivered or if there are any issues.
Let me know if that helps.
