#170 When Your Loss Is From The Decision to Rehome Your Companion

Join family therapists and authors Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio and Nancy Saxton-Lopez as we speak with Charly Stoever about how they decided that the best interest of their cat, Luna, would be served by rehoming her. We'll talk about how this kind of loss is similar to and different from others. Charly Stoever (they/he) is a nonbinary latinx money coach, speaker, and host of the Unicorn Millionaire Podcast. They’re helping LGBTQ+/BIPOC twerk their way to early retirement. They're a formerly undocumented Mexican American and ex-stock broker who has traveled solo to 34 countries.
