Monique Brignoni
Imagine being able to meet the final chapter of your pet’s life with love, presence, and deep understanding.
Learn how to recognize the stages of dying so you can respond with clarity, make loving decisions, and stay fully connected to your beloved animal companion — while moving through your own grief with more peace.
When your beloved pet begins to slip away, what hurts most isn’t just the anticipation of loss — it’s not knowing how to help them.
You watch them slow down, leave food in the bowl, sleep longer, breathe differently… and suddenly every change feels like a question you’re not equipped to answer: Is this normal? Are they in pain? Should you step in — or step back?
And underneath all of it, the fear: What if I get this wrong?
Because in those moments, love can get tangled with urgency, and, instead of being fully present with your pet, you panic.
Monique Brignoni has spent decades guiding pet guardians through this exact threshold. As a sacred pet death doula, she can help you understand what’s happening not only in your animal’s body… but emotionally and energetically — so you can respond with clarity instead of fear, and stay deeply connected to your pet through the entire process.
In her upcoming 7-week live video course, Monique will guide you step by step through the stages of dying — from the first subtle shifts, through the active dying process and beyond the last breath — so instead of reacting to symptoms as isolated emergencies, you begin to see what’s actually unfolding.
You’ll gain something most people never receive: a map. A way to recognize where you are, what changes are natural, and how to respond without rushing decisions or bracing for the worst — and act in a way that genuinely supports your pet.
Just as importantly, you’ll learn how to steady yourself in real time — so you’re not making choices from a state of anxiety, but from a grounded place where you can actually feel what’s needed.
As you move through the course, you’ll begin to see that the end of life isn’t one overwhelming moment, but a sequence with its own rhythm. And when you can recognize that, you’re no longer reacting to every change — you’re able to meet what’s happening, one step at a time.
Through gentle, practical exercises, Monique will help you stay grounded in the moments that tend to feel most distressing, and understanding that what looks like suffering very often isn’t.
You’ll also learn how to manage the tender space after your pet’s last breath — how to remain present, honor their passing with reverence, and begin to integrate what you’ve lived through without shutting down or rushing ahead.
Monique will help you explore how the bond continues beyond physical form, and how grief can move in a way that brings completion instead of lingering doubt — so love remains something you can still feel, carry, and live from.
During this deeply supportive journey, you’ll:
- Recognize the distinct stages of the dying process, so you can understand where you are instead of feeling lost
- Learn how to interpret physical changes in context, so you’re not reacting to every symptom as a crisis
- Understand how the process unfolds physically, emotionally, and energetically, giving you a fuller picture of what your pet is experiencing
- Discover how to discern when intervention is truly needed, when the body may be completing a natural process
- Learn how your emotional state affects your pet, and how to become a steady, supportive presence
- Explore ways to create a calm, supportive environment that allows the process to unfold with greater ease — and how to navigate active dying with clarity, presence, and love
- Move through this experience in a way that supports completion rather than lingering guilt or regret
- Explore meaningful rituals after your pet’s passing — including burial, cremation, ceremony, and other choices that can help you honor their life and support your own grieving process
- And much more…

Course Sessions 2026-05-14 9:00:00 am.
This course will feature LIVE teachings, interactive sessions, experiential practices, and Q&A with Monique. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to recognize what each stage of dying asks of you, so you can respond with steadiness, and support your pet with strength and love.
Module 1: The Map of Dying Moving From Fear to Love (2026-05-14 9:00:00 am)
When the word terminal enters the room, most nervous systems leap straight to the summit - the last breath, the worst-case scenario, the urgent decision.
Monique will offer what most pet parents never receive - a map of the end-of-life journey.
You'll learn why panic happens, how misunderstanding can create long-term guilt, and how the dying process unfolds in stages. With that orientation, the appearance of symptoms stop feeling like emergencies and begin to make sense - so you can move forward with clarity instead of pressure.
In this opening module, you'll:
- Understand how urgency shifts perception - narrowing your vision, shutting down your intuition, and pushing binary decisions that you may regret
- Experience a guided nervous system reset "From Summit to Base Camp" designed to help you move from survival-mode thinking into a calmer presence and orientation
- Discover why dying is a landscape, not a cliff, so you can pace the process step-by-step instead of jumping to the worst-case scenario
- Be introduced to the three stages of dying - The Call, Withdrawal, and Active Dying - so symptoms begin to make sense
- Learn how to ask three grounding questions that restore sovereignty in difficult moments and help you return to love rather than panic
Stage 1
Module 2: The Call Slowing Down to Act From Clarity (2026-05-21 9:00:00 am)
Stage 1 isn't a crisis. It's a change in rhythm. A slowing. A subtle turning inward. Monique will share how to recognize the earliest signs of transition - before collapse, and before urgency escalates.
You'll explore how survival mode distorts perception, how pre-grief begins, and how learning sacred listening can deepen your connection. When you understand Stage 1, you'll likely soften when it starts, rather than tighten. And that shift can change the entire unfolding of the process.
In this module, you'll:
- Discover how Stage 1 signals a rhythm shift, where slowing and subtle withdrawal are invitations rather than emergencies
- Experience a guided attunement practice "Matching Their Rhythm" where you slow down and match your pet's natural pace and deepen your intuitive connection
- Understand how fear narrows perception while love expands it - and why nervous system regulation restores clarity
- Learn why pre-grief is intimacy, not failure, and how anticipatory grief can also deepen your connection
- Recognize how your pet's slowing can also reorganize something within you - revealing patterns around control, independence, or impermanence
Stage 2
Module 3: The Cocoon Recognizing Withdrawal & Becoming Steady Medicine (2026-05-28 9:00:00 am)
Stage 2 is where many pet parents begin to feel the ground move. Pets' bodies weaken, their sensitivity increases, and symptoms can look frightening if you don't understand the terrain.
You'll learn what Stage 2 actually is, and why it's often mistaken for suffering. Monique will guide you to discern pain from transition, and understand how your regulated presence shapes the experience.
In this module, you'll:
- Discover why Stage 2 may appear still on the outside, while deep reorganization is happening inside - as your pet's body slows and their energetic body strengthens
- Experience a discernment practice "Red Flag or Sacred Signal?" to help you distinguish true medical concern from natural transition
- Understand why panic in Stage 2 often comes from unfamiliarity rather than pain
- Recognize that not every intervention supports connection or comfort
- Explore how quality-of-life checklists can amplify fear when Stage 2 changes are misunderstood
- Learn how your nervous system becomes medicine in the room, helping your pet feel safe in the field
Module 4: Letting Go Releasing With Love So Your Pet Can Transition With Ease (2026-06-04 9:00:00 am)
As Stage 2 unfolds, you'll explore one of the most tender thresholds - letting go. Through stories and guidance, Monique will show how animals are not passive in death. They prepare, participate, and often choose their timing with remarkable intelligence.
You'll also learn about what unfolds within you during this stage - attachment, nervous system activation, mixed signals, and the mystery of lingering between worlds. You'll learn how to offer true permission while staying loving, present, and honest with your grief.
In this module, you'll:
- Discover how animals actively participate in their dying, often completing tasks or waiting for certain moments or people
- Experience the "Sudden Grief Repair Protocol and Permission Practice" to stabilize emotional overwhelm and support conscious letting go
- Understand why letting go is love without possession - releasing control while staying fully present
- Learn why animals may linger between worlds when there are emotional, relational, or environmental tensions in the field
- Recognize how mixed signals can create confusion - such as encouraging your pet to go while continuing life-extending measures Explore how honesty, spaciousness, and emotional regulation help the transition unfold with greater ease
Stage 3
Module 5: Active Dying Holding a Sacred, Peaceful Space in the Final Moments (2026-06-11 9:00:00 am)
Stage 3 is the final threshold - when the animal's body stops trying to survive and begins closing down.
Monique will provide you with a grounded understanding of active dying so natural changes are not mistaken for suffering. You'll learn how to recognize when this phase has truly begun, and how presence, rather than intervention, becomes the most supportive form of care.
In this module, you'll:
- Understand how active dying signals completion rather than fluctuation, when the body begins its final closing process
- Experience a Vigil Practice to help you remain calm, steady, and emotionally spacious during your pet's final hours
- Learn how changes in breathing, sleep, appetite, and awareness are often natural markers of transition
- Discover why your stillness is medicine, and how calm presence supports the departure process
- Learn how to create a sacred environment that reduces disturbance and supports ease
Module 6: Guiding Them Home A Sacred Map for Supporting Them in Their Final Hours (2026-06-18 9:00:00 am)
As Stage 3 unfolds and your beloved animal approaches the final threshold, you'll naturally align with a deeper orientation to what is unfolding physically and energetically.
With Monique's guidance, you'll learn how to interpret common signs without panic - supporting comfort with clarity, and creating a calm, sacred environment.
You'll also learn how your own nervous system and emotional field can influence the ease of the process - and how to become a steady presence that helps your animal feel safe, held, and free to go.
In this module, you'll:
- Learn how to recognize the difference between Stage 2 decline and Stage 3 active dying
- Experience "Walking the Elements," a guided practice for understanding the sequence of changes during active dying
- Recognize the common signs of active dying and understand which are often mistaken for suffering
- Learn when intervention is helpful and when stillness and presence are more supportive
- Create a peaceful, low-stimulation environment that supports comfort and reduces distress
- Understand how consciousness expands even as the body closes, allowing you to hold love without gripping
Module 7: Beyond the Last Breath Integrating Grief & Keeping Your Bond Alive (2026-06-25 9:00:00 am)
You'll discover what unfolds after your beloved animal's last breath as you learn how to stay present during the wake and honor your pet's body with reverence rather than urgency.
You'll also explore how connection continues beyond physical form and how conscious grieving creates completion. Monique will show you how to transform loss into integration - so love remains alive, and you return to life steadier, wiser, and open-hearted.
In this final module, you'll:
- Learn how to stay grounded after the last breath - recognizing that transition continues beyond the moment of death
- Be guided through the "From Form to Frequency" practice, to help you release attachment to physical form while strengthening your connection to the love that remains
- Discover ways to support your pet's continued journey with presence, reverence, and care
- Explore meaningful rituals - ceremony, burial, or cremation choices - that support emotional integration and grief healing
- Understand how conscious end-of-life experiences help grief transform rather than remain unresolved

About Monique Brignoni
EDIT
Monique left behind the glamorous role of personal assistant to a prince to follow her true love — animals and the unseen. Today, she trains pet death doulas around the world and supports animal lovers in transforming end-of-life experiences into peaceful, conscious, and regret-free journeys that transform loss into a loving bridge across forever.
Her profound journey began with the heart-wrenching death of her beloved cat, Rami, which sparked a decade of deep study with a vet, a shaman, and Tibetan monks, and ultimately led her to become a human death doula. But it was the animals themselves who brought these teachings to life. They shaped her unique approach — The Awakened Pet Parent Pathway — which turns challenging moments into opportunities for healing and awakening.
Blending 35+ years of spiritual practice with grounded wisdom, Monique guides pet lovers and doulas to trust their inner knowing, reclaim their sovereignty, and even find moments of lightness in the sacred journey — shifting their entire perspective on life, death, and everything in between.
Guided by animals — our greatest teachers in the journey from conditional love to unconditional love, and finally to divine love in their end-of-life passage — Monique’s mission is to support the awakening of animal lovers, help them come home to themselves, express their truth fully, and become a light for both animals and the world.
