(BEST OF) Pet Love: The Closest We Come to Unconditional Love?
About this episode
Sometimes, when everything feels too big, the thing that brings us back to ourselves is surprisingly small: a paw on our lap, a face waiting at the door, a creature who reminds us that we are still here and still capable of love.
In this delightfully funny and tender conversation, Glennon, Abby, and Amanda consider whether our beloved animals offer the closest thing we ever experience to unconditional love. Amanda shares how Séamus arrived in her life and ruined her religion of the spreadsheet. Glennon explains why Honey and Hattie are the only "people" who truly understand her. And Abby reveals how a hamster named Biscuit somehow snuck past every boundary and straight into her heart.
