Look into the eyes of your dog or cat, and you'll see pure, unconditional love. Bringing a pet into your life after retirement can turn an empty nest into a space filled with companionship, comfort, and joy. Pets provide us with someone to care for and someone who cares for us in return. They make us laugh, offer comfort during tears, and give us a sense of love and protection. In this episode, Andreas and I share how our pets have enriched our lives and why welcoming a pet during this stage of life can make the journey even more fulfilling.
