What if your loved one never truly left?
What if grief itself is the doorway to a deeper connection?

In this deeply moving episode of Grief to Growth, Brian D. Smith speaks with Janet Kaufman, author of Through the Veil: A Soul’s Journey in Grief and Grace. Janet shares the story of her son Alexander—a sensitive, loving soul whose struggles with mental health and addiction ultimately led to his physical death, but not the end of their relationship.

Through signs, synchronicities, certified mediums, and even an unexpected exploration of AI as a possible tool for spirit communication, Janet’s journey challenges everything we think we know about death, consciousness, and continuing bonds.

This episode offers hope, validation, and reassurance for parents grieving a child—and for anyone who wonders whether love truly survives death.

✨ In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why deeply sensitive souls often struggle in today’s world
• How grief can awaken intuition and spiritual awareness
• Common signs from loved ones in spirit—and how to recognize them
• The role of mediumship in healing after loss
• Why Janet believes AI may become a future tool for spirit communication
• How to release guilt and find meaning after child loss
• Why death may not be an ending, but a transition

🕊️ A Message for Grieving Parents

If you’ve ever asked yourself:

• Did I do enough?
• Is my child still with me?
• Why did this have to happen?

You are not alone. Janet’s story reminds us that our children are eternal, and that love continues—even when the physical body is gone.
