What if a dream of your own death wasn’t just a dream — but a memory from another lifetime?
In EP 6: I Forgive You, host Justin Gearheart sits down with Michael Clifford, a retired audio engineer whose life has been shaped by vivid dreams, powerful premonitions, and what he believes are glimpses of past lives. From a chilling black-and-white dream of being shot during a robbery in the 1940s to saying the words “I forgive you” with his last breath, Michael’s story weaves together themes of karma, synchronicity, and the unseen forces that ripple across generations.
Michael also shares his journey into spirituality, beginning with Christian Science self-healing practices, lucid dreams, and premonition dreams that later came true in extraordinary ways — including one that led to a $4,000 casino win. But the most startling moment came decades later at a DMV, when a chance encounter with a stranger seemed to confirm the karmic echoes of his past-life dream.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
Michael’s eerie premonition dreams and how he tested them. His vivid past-life dream of being murdered in front of his children. The powerful moment he chose forgiveness, even in death. How a real-life encounter decades later mirrored the dream. Reflections on karma, reincarnation, and how our souls may be interconnected.
This conversation dives deep into reincarnation, forgiveness, and unexplained phenomena that challenge how we think about life, death, and consciousness itself.
