About this listen

"Transform your grief into growth with Brian Smith, an empathetic life coach, certified grief educator, public speaker, and author who has walked the treacherous path of profound loss. Grief 2 Growth unravels the intricacies of life, death, and the spaces in between, offering listeners a new perspective on what it means to be 'Planted. Not Buried.'

Join Brian and his compelling guests—bereaved parents, life coaches, mediums, healers, near death experiencers, and experts in various fields—as they discuss topics like survival guilt, synchronicities, and the scientific evidence supporting the existence of the afterlife. You'll come away with actionable advice, renewed hope, and the comforting knowledge that love and life are eternal.

One of the most powerful ways we know what awaits us and where we came from is Near Death Experiences. Much of Brian's knowledge is derived from extensive study of this phenomenon, along with interviewing dozens of near death experience experiencers.

Brian knows the soul-crushing weight of loss; his journey began with the sudden passing of his fifteen-year-old daughter, Shayna. It's not an odyssey he would have chosen, but it has been an odyssey that has chosen him to guide others.

Grief 2 Growth is a sanctuary for those grieving, those curious about the beyond, and anyone eager to explore the fuller dimensions of life and death. Each episode delves into topics that matter most—how to cope, grow, and connect with loved ones in the afterlife. If you ask: “Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going?” this podcast is for you.

This isn't about forgetting your loss or simply 'moving on'; it's about growing in a new direction that honors your loved ones and your spirit. It’s about finding joy and purpose again.

Grief 2 Growth is more than a podcast; it's a community of souls committed to supporting one another through the darkest valleys and highest peaks of human existence. Listen today and start planting seeds for a brighter, more spiritually connected tomorrow."

    📌 Episode Description:

    What happens when you let go of everything—and awaken to who you really are?

    In this moving conversation, Brian speaks with Eva Müller, a spiritual teacher and founder of NextElevations.com, about her rapid and life-changing spiritual awakening. After years of pushing through stress and emotional wounds, Eva hit a breaking point—and found her way into beingness.

    🌱 In just 3.5 years, Eva experienced multiple awakenings, including Unity Consciousness, as she healed ancestral trauma, grief, and emotional patterns. She now shares energy transmissions that help others awaken and reconnect to the deep stillness and peace within.

    This episode is more than a conversation—it’s a transmission in itself.

    💡 What You’ll Learn:

    • How burnout opened the door to Eva’s spiritual awakening
    • What energy transmissions are—and how they heal beyond words
    • The connection between unprocessed trauma, grief, and spiritual stagnation
    • Why motherhood became one of Eva’s deepest teachers
    • How she lives from presence and silence, and what that actually feels like

    👉 Don’t miss the guided energy transmission at the end of the episode. Many listeners report feeling shifts even through audio.

    In this episode, recorded aboard a cruise ship sailing through the Ionian Sea, I share lessons learned from slowing down, reconnecting with old friends, and experiencing the beauty of Greece, Croatia, and Italy.

    You’ll hear about:

    • 🏝️ The breathtaking sights of Santorini, Mykonos, and Venice
    • 🎶 How music united people from all over the world in a ship’s piano bar
    • 🕊️ Reflections on empathy, violence, and finding common ground
    • 🧘 The importance of self-care, slowing down, and “enjoying the ride of life”

    ✨ Key Takeaway: Life isn’t just about the destination. It’s about living each moment fully — with gratitude, connection, and care for yourself.

    🎙️ Lessons From the Aegean

    In this special episode, I’m recording from Mykonos, Greece, during a once-in-a-lifetime Mediterranean vacation with some of my dearest friends. If you know me, you know I don’t usually enjoy long trips or being far from home. But this journey has surprised me in ways I couldn’t have imagined.

    Over the past week, I’ve:

    • Faced my fears of being “stuck” at sea for 48 hours.
    • Learned to slow down and enjoy the journey—not just the destination.
    • Witnessed incredible resilience from my friend Lisa, who joined this cruise only five months after the sudden passing of her husband, Mike.
    • Reflected on the strength of friendships that have lasted decades through celebrations, illnesses, grief, and growth.
    • Climbed the 587 steps of Santorini—both a physical and metaphorical reminder of the climbs we all face in life.

    As I sit here watching the Aegean Sea, I’m reminded that life is short, unpredictable, and precious. Whether we get five minutes, five years, or fifty years with someone we love, it is all a blessing.

    ✨ My hope is that this episode encourages you to slow down, savor the journey, and grab every bit of life you can—because the ride itself is the gift
