For the 151st episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Cherie Doyen of Quantum Therapeutix for part one in a three-part series on pet loss.\nHave you ever lost a beloved pet? It\u2019s the worst. Scientifically, it can be as hard to grieve a pet as a parent or a partner. I lost my beloved dog, Georgia, in early December, and it was so hard for me to process \u2014 that experience inspired this series.\nOur first guest is Cherie Doyen, one of my best friend\u2019s mom and a professional healer. In this conversation, Cherie explains a bit about her work healing complex trauma. We also talk about grieving our beloved dogs \u2014 my Georgia and her Nina \u2014 our dogs as protectors and the best friends we could ever have, pets mourning other pets, being visited by your dog's spirit, how hard euthanasia is for pet owners, and the fraught experience of getting another pet (or "calling in your next guide," as Cherie says.)\nFor more Cherie Doyen:\n\nFollow Cherie on Instagram @cheriedoyen\n\n\nBuy Cherie's book The Chronicles of Tigua\n\n\nBuy Cherie's book Junebug\n\n\nCheck out the Quantum Therapeutix website quantumtherapeutix.com\n\n\n\nPsst, Courtney has an 0nIyFan$, which is a horny way to support the show: https://linktr.ee/cocopeepshow\nPrivate Parts Unknown is a proud member of the Pleasure Podcast network.
