About this listen
Welcome back to The Glass Sessions!
In this episode, Austin Croteau joins us from Greece to share how she and her husband Matt sold their house, left traditional careers, and began traveling the world with their four young boys - all in pursuit of a life that felt more aligned.
“This defined American Dream just wasn’t what we wanted anymore.”
We talk about:
- Selling everything and joining Boundless Life in Greece
- Navigating judgment from family and friends
- Paying off debt, living off savings, and rethinking 401k tradeoffs
- How relationships and community opened unexpected career doors
- Raising kids without a traditional blueprint
- Risk tolerance (“we’re not bankrupt yet”) and redefining wealth
Austin shares how meeting other traveling families helped them build community, how Matt ultimately secured a remote role through a connection made abroad, and why “saying yes and talking to everybody” continues to shape their path.
If you’ve ever questioned the default path - this conversation will resonate.
