About this listen
Sometimes you just have to walk away.
Maggie Harrison is a devoted wife and mother, until one day, without planning to, she drives away, leaving behind her indifferent husband and two sulking teenagers. Maggie goes off on a quest of self-exploration, enjoying adventures, meeting new people, and rediscovering her passions. For the first time in years, she dreams of what she wants out of life, and realizes that her deteriorating marriage can no longer continue as it is. Can she and Andrew repair their broken relationship, or is their marriage over?
Andrew Harrison likes his life to be in perfect order. He enjoys his work and status in the community, leaving Maggie to take care of their home and children. He knows his marriage isn't perfect, but after 23 years and two kids, whose marriage is? When Maggie leaves without a word, he is forced to pay more attention to his home life and his almost-grown children, and he begins to do a little self-exploration of his own. Slowly, he begins to understand what drove Maggie away, and how important she is in his life. Is it too late to resolve their differences and save their marriage? Or will Andrew lose Maggie forever?
