How does Brian D Smith's Grief 2 Growth podcast explore the concept of near-death experiences?

I explore near-death experiences on Grief 2 Growth as both a grieving dad and a bit of a science nerd.

I bring on experiencers like David Williamson (EP 342) to tell their stories in detail—what happened medically, what they perceived, and how it changed them. We focus a lot on transformation: reduced fear of death, more love and connection, and new life purpose.

I also talk with researchers and educators to look at the evidence: patterns across NDEs, verifiable perceptions, and what these suggest about consciousness beyond the brain. The goal isn’t to preach a belief system, but to give hope, reduce fear, and help people see that death is a transition, not an ending.

Are you more interested in personal NDE stories or the research side of things?
