It’s taken me a long time to bring this out into the world. In fact, I’ve been sitting with this for months now. So much has happened over the last year, the last six months, even the last few weeks… I honestly don’t even know where to begin.
So I’ll begin right here.
I’ve been sitting with this episode for a while.
Knowing I wanted to record it… feeling it in my heart… but also knowing it needed to come when it was truly ready.
And I finally shared the story of my sweet Nemo on the Awaken With Animals podcast. Not just the story of his passing on December 23, 2025, but the deeper teaching he gave me in his final hours.
Nemo showed me something I will carry with me forever.
That when animals communicate, they are speaking in the moment.And as humans, we can sometimes attach meaning that stretches beyond that moment.
He told me he wasn’t ready, and I held onto that.
But what he was really teaching me was to trust what is true right then, and to stay open when things change.
Because they did… and very quickly.
And in that shift came one of the most profound lessons of my life.
Nemo taught me to trust, to listen, and to be present. To let love lead, even when it is incredibly hard.
This episode is deeply personal. It’s tender, emotional, and also filled with gratitude for everything he gave me.
If you have ever loved an animal who is now in spirit, I believe there is something here for you.
You can listen to the episode now on Awaken With Animals.
And if you feel called, I would truly love to hear about your animal too. Email me at [email protected] or come see me on Facebook or Instagram. Your stories are always welcomed.
I hope this episode brings peace and a little light to your heart today.
With so much love,
Marybeth
