I believe you can find what you need in this linked post.

This problem can generally occur when you do not enable two step verification for the gmail account you are using to send an email. So first, enable two step verification, you can find plenty of resources for enabling two step verification. After you enable it, then you have to create an app password. And use the app password in your .env file.
