The programme airs on Tuesday, 12 November at 5 p.m., with a repeat on Saturday at 1 p.m., on Freies Radio Freudenstadt (100.1 FM, 89.2 FM) and online at www.radio-fds.de.
In their early forties, Gary and Laura had achieved professional success and enjoyed a comfortable lifestyle, yet sensed that something essential was missing. They decided to resign from their jobs, reduce their possessions, and travel across Europe in pursuit of a simpler and more meaningful way of living. Over the past seven weeks, they have documented their journey on Instagram under the name Midlife Crisis Couple, offering a candid and engaging account of what it means to exchange security for freedom.
This Reboot episode invites you to reflect on your own life and priorities. If you have ever questioned whether there is more to life than work and routine, this conversation may provide the inspiration to look again at what truly matters.
