Ep. 09: Love Beyond the Veil: Pet Loss & Presence w/ Ute Luppertz

In this touching episode of Wholeness, a Quantum Experience, Ava sits down with Ute Luppertz for a deeply personal conversation about the grief that comes with losing our beloved animal companions. Ava opens up about the recent loss of her two cats, and Ute gently offers her compassion and perspective from years of experience as an animal communicator and death doula. Together, they explore the sacredness of saying goodbye, how to make children part of the process, and why the grief we feel for our animals is every bit as real—and valid—as any other kind of mourning. If you've ever loved and lost a pet, or are walking through grief of any kind, this episode is a tender reminder that you're not alone, and that healing is possible. More about Ute Luppertz: Ute Luppertz has always been drawn to animals and people who feel "different"—those who may be misunderstood by the world. Her journey into holistic healing began when her beloved cat Marlo arrived as a gravely ill kitten. Through dedication and gentle, integrative care, Marlo not only survived but thrived for 15 years, sparking Ute’s deep passion for alternative approaches to health and wellness. Years later, her soul dog Shiva entered her life, carrying profound trauma and fear. Supporting Shiva’s healing journey opened Ute’s heart even further, leading her to become a certified Tellington TTouch practitioner, a Reiki Master, and eventually, an animal communicator—a calling that fully awakened after Shiva’s passing. Today, Ute's mission is to support both pets and their humans by fostering deeper connection, emotional healing, and peace—especially during the sacred transition of end-of-life. She believes in healing from the inside out and is devoted to walking alongside animals and their people with compassion, respect, and love. Learn more about her powerful offerings here.
