How does Brian D Smith's collaboration with Hans Wilhelm provide insights into the soul's purpose?

Brian D. Smith here. When I sit down with someone like Hans Wilhelm, my goal is to translate big spiritual ideas into something you can actually live—especially in the middle of grief.

In that conversation, Hans and I explore:

• Earth as a school for the soul—where pain, grief, and setbacks are part of our curriculum, not punishments
• Karma as a “soul shadow” we gradually undo through forgiveness and love
• Reincarnation as the longer arc of our growth, so a single lifetime (or a single loss) isn’t the whole story
• Grief as a spiritual doorway—an invitation to shift from ego to spirit, from “Why me?” to “What can grow from this?”

Together, we’re basically saying: your soul’s purpose isn’t a specific job or title—it’s to learn to love more deeply, even through heartbreak.

What part of soul purpose are you most curious about—karma, reincarnation, or how grief fits into it?
