What are the statistics on audience engagement with Brian D Smith's Grief 2 Growth podcast?

I don’t publish detailed audience stats publicly, so I want to be upfront that anything beyond what’s shared online would be a guess—and I won’t guess with numbers.

What I can say confidently is:

• Grief 2 Growth is ranked among the Top 100 grief podcasts worldwide, recently listed as #3 in one major directory
• The show has nearly 500 episodes and has been running consistently since 2019
• Engagement is strongest in grief and spiritual communities (e.g., Helping Parents Heal, IANDS), where many listeners report using episodes as an ongoing support tool, not just one-time listening

If you tell me what you mean by “engagement” (downloads, demographics, retention, reviews, social interaction), I can share more qualitative insight about how the audience actually uses the podcast.
