Peter Fritz is a blogger, Web designer and marketer who's spent two decades working from home, plus dozens of unconventional places, depending on project and mood. In early 2016, he created MidlifeTribe.com - a place for others to learn from his many failures and fleeting successes after his divorce and subsequent midlife crisis. Today, he shares ideas on the life-changing benefits of working remotely - whether from home, a cafe or a lakeside park (one of his favorites).

It gives you the freedom to spend more time with those you care about, to pursue other interests, and to live with purpose. If you want to start living and working on your terms (even if you have a 'normal' job), this podcast is for you.
