Demar Jackson | I’m Proof That You Can Rewrite Your Story, No Matter Where You Start
In this episode of Beyond The Cover, I sit down with Demar Jackson an open book of resilience, humor, and raw honesty. You may know him from reality TV, but this conversation unveils the man behind the screen: a brother, a survivor, and a beacon of positivity despite life's toughest moments.
Demar shares the heartbreaking story of losing his half-brothers, both taken too soon by senseless violence, and how those losses shaped the way he lives his life today. He opens up about the rock bottom moments that have fueled his relentless drive to honor their memory through joy, positivity, and purpose. Together, we discuss the weight of grief, the healing power of movement, and the importance of finding solid ground when life falls apart.
This isn’t just a story of loss it’s a story of perseverance, growth, and choosing light in the face of darkness. Demar’s perspective on life’s challenges is nothing short of inspiring, and his ability to find humor and hope even in difficult times is a reminder of the strength we all carry within us.

Great analysis, thank you! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
I remember Demar from Claire’s season. He has such great energy & was a great conversation with you today!👏🏼👏🏼
Great interview ❤
Enjoyed listening to JohnJay's stories. Great interview Clayton.
Just found out yo had this podcast channel and I subscribed to support you. Deceptive people can only run so long before the truth catches up to them and the consequences are inevitable and their own fault.
Lets be honest, Sophie Rain as guest would be great!
I can't believe that she can make money?
Wow, what an incredible interview. I’m honestly surprised it doesn’t have more views.
Love this !!
St8 🔥 thank YOU for this interview! Beautiful work you have, the world needs to hear our stories. ❤ Amazing conversation!
Hi Clayton, really enjoyed this interview. You're doing a great job.
Great podcasts bro Fonz always been great friend🙏🏼
Awesome interview, really good feedback and questions. Genuine guest also!
Why people even try substances is beyond me. where your morals gone
Great video Clayton!! I think the world needs to know information like this, so thanks for covering a very informative topic!
Appreciate you having me on amigo!
Thanks guys to be here to watch this topic i truly enjoy❤
Great episode. Greg has some awesome experience to share.
Beautiful women.
Really liked your opening monologue bro. Beautiful.
Many gems of wisdom here. Excellent!
Maybe he just wanted to win the show. That girl was letting everyone kiss her and take her out on dates, like (who wants me???) like it was a literal competition. I would have left like wait a moment, She wanted him all over her and to continue to kiss her ass for attention. She is wrong and messed up to purposely make someone her slave and punching bag. Like squeezing everything out of him for her joy and insecurities. God bless him.
So proud of Karla & her journey is so inspiring! 🌻
Great conversation with this lovely lady..You both really connected with each other ❤
Great podcast, expected to see your channels with hundreds of thousands of followers and was well surprised to see how small you are (currently). Keep it up like this and you have no choice but to succeed!
Amazing yet another fantastic guest❤
I wish everyone knew that their one true purpose is to serve God, what gives them worth is not everything this broken society is telling them will but rather it is being a creation of God, the one thing that could give them true peace and contentment is worshipping and submitting to God. I appreciate this conversation and I wish you well. Seek God with an open heart and you will find what you are looking for. We are all out here trying to fill the gaping hole within us with money, beauty, love, fame, intelligence, degrees, social status, etc etc etc. and what we are all looking for is God. We want to find our purpose but it is to worship God, that is all. It's actually that simple.
Love your courage/bravery. In agreement. Amen.
Wow.. I didn't want your discussion to end...Please have this beautiful lady back soon.
Thank you so much 🥹
@hannahbhammond ❤️
Keep the doughnut where you gave it ❤ its less distracting 👍
Oh im so so late but in the plus side i have two of your podcasts to watch ..Its my favorite time to sit back and relax and listen to my favorite Podcaster and his guest..
I really enjoy this guest. She is so real and a great role model. Love to see a girl boss killin it!
She made so many good points- freedom is in that space between cause and reaction.. I love the way she worded that. And Clayton, you are so good at navigating the conversation and carefully listening and answering. So good!
Thank you so much Tiffney ♥️🥹
Love the podcast! I was never a Bachelor fan and learned about you through the Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby. I've been following you & Dave Neal ever since. Can't wait to see that woman come to justice and for you to find true happiness!
Podcasters Lauren Neidigh and Dave Neal sent me here. ✨ Clayton: Fantastic channel and much needed. The topic of men’s mental health has been ignored for too long. Thank you for shining a light on it. Liked and subbed!
Thank you for your honesty!
Single pringle gang
Way to go Clayton 👏👏👏 Keep putting out this amazing content and keep being you!
Clayton... Thank you so much for doing this and for sharing your light with the world. Around a year ago I was having a very hard time and you sent me that advice video. I'm glad to see you doing this podcast because I know you will have a positive imapct on so many people the way you did for me. I look forward to following along with your future successes and hope our paths cross again someday :)
Brandon, you clearly have integrity. What a painful story. I hope you never lose faith in love and find healing and what you’re looking for 💜
Most underrated bachelor! This podcast is great.
Very helpful answers @Clayton. Be "curious". You can get deep. It's a bit uncomfortable for most ppl. Glad you are talking about this. Love it.
Keep at it, Clayton. You are truly inspiring and so much more than you’ve even tapped into thus far. Can’t wait to see where life takes you!
“Good” 💪🏼
I totally get the bored thing. I was afraid to be bored for a long time bc it felt like slowing down or failure. I was in a relationship in the past with someone that showed me slowing down and the "boring" or "bored" moments are so good for us. It allowed me to really understand myself and the things I genuinely love to do. Made me appreciate the down time a lot more than I ever have.
Oh my goodness,your podcasts are amazing.What a lovely lady..
First one here!
Brandon is my all time favourite in bachelor nation. No one could convince me he was cheating ❤ he’s a gem
Men behave differently than women. Women can cry and stay home.. men go to bars with their friends to deal with things sometimes.
Narcissists smear you-they get people to turn their backs on you. Be very careful who you allow into your life! Sounds like he may have dealt with a narcissist.. the blackmail, the smearing, etc. Narcissists exist in 16% of the population per HG Tudor.. there are red flags all over Serene 🚩
Wow what an amazing interview,I loved it. Clayton I hope you don't mind me asking or suggesting going back to a quieter back drop,this backdrop is too bold I found myself focusing on the Dounght and picture than you and your guest and maybe just have your podcast name on TV as colours don't come across good on the stream ❤
Time for bed,will be back tomorrow ❤
