About this episode

In this episode of The Awakening Podcast, Brian and Hope sit down with their longtime spiritual guide, Dave Clark, a clairvoyant reader, healer, and teacher, along with his wife Julie Peoples Clark, an artist, writer, and teacher.

Together they open up about their 25-year marriage, their journey through grief, and the profound lessons they learned raising their daughter Ella, who was born with severe cerebral palsy and passed away at age 11.

The conversation dives into:

  • What clairvoyance really is and how it helps us see truth beneath trauma

  • How childhood wounds replay in adult relationships as “matching pictures”

  • The pact that helped Dave and Julie survive sleep-deprived nights as young parents

  • The lessons Ella taught them about patience, intimacy, slowing down, and spirit-to-spirit communication

  • What it was like to witness Ella’s passing and continue a relationship with her in spirit

  • How they keep their marriage strong through forgiveness, humor, nature, and deep sexual connection

  • Real guidance for supporting someone through grief without spiritual bypassing

This is a moving, raw, and deeply inspiring episode on love, loss, spiritual partnership, and the healing power of seeing beyond the body into spirit.

  • Julie’s upcoming book on raising Ella and navigating grief
