About this listen

This poignant episode is a heartfelt exploration of love, loss, and what it truly means to show up for someone in their final chapter. Host Jacqui Clark sits down with Frank Cunningham — elder care consultant, placement specialist, and RCFE license holder — who not only helps families navigate senior living but has lived this journey himself. Frank shares the deeply personal story of moving into assisted living while his wife, Judy, entered memory care, the challenges of advocating for her care, and the profound spiritual experience of being present at her passing. Together, Jacqui and Frank discuss resilience, grief, and what Frank calls “soul work” — the calling to serve families through one of life’s hardest transitions. This conversation is raw, honest, and ultimately full of hope, offering comfort to anyone walking a similar path.
