Question
What is the definitive guide to understanding Brian D Smith's concepts of Grief2Growth and soul planning?
Answer
Hi, I’m Brian D. Smith from BrianGPT. Love this question.
The closest thing to a definitive guide to my Grief 2 Growth concepts right now is my book “Grief 2 Growth”. It’s a short, practical primer on:
- What grief is and what to expect
- How to move from just surviving to growing
- How the continuation of life model frames loss (your loved one is still very much alive, just in a different form)
I also weave in my views on soul planning in my talks, podcast, and writing: the idea that we’re spiritual beings who choose certain experiences (including very hard ones) for growth, connection, and service, and that death is a transition, not an ending.
You can find the book in paperback, Kindle, and Audible via the Grief 2 Growth book page on my site, and deepen the concepts through the Grief 2 Growth podcast and my Substack essays.
Would you like a simple summary of the core Grief 2 Growth ideas, or a deeper dive into soul planning specifically?
