In this heartfelt episode of *Grief 2 Growth*, host Brian Smith sits down with Laura Hirsch, a remarkable author, advocate, and mother whose life journey defies the ordinary.
💬 Who is Laura Hirsch?
Laura's life has been profoundly shaped by grief, resilience, and discovery. At 27, she tragically lost her first husband in a car accident—a loss that led her to explore mediumship and the spiritual connections that transformed her healing journey. Years later, she faced another life-altering challenge when her son, Trevor, was diagnosed with regressive autism and became nonverbal. Undeterred, Laura embraced alternative therapies, holistic approaches, and cutting-edge techniques, which ultimately led to Trevor’s groundbreaking breakthrough using Spelling to Communicate (S2C).
📚 Together, Laura and Trevor co-authored *More Than Meets the Eye*, chronicling Trevor's inspiring journey as a musician, horse whisperer, and spiritual medium. Laura is also the author of *Widowed Too Soon*, where she recounts her journey through grief, and *The Other Side of Autism*, a deep dive into her advocacy for nontraditional approaches to autism and caregiving.
✨ What you'll discover in this episode:
- How Laura’s experiences with loss shaped her perspective on grief and healing.
- The revolutionary method of S2C that gave Trevor a voice and allowed his incredible spiritual gifts to shine.
