What does freedom really look like when you stop waiting and start living?

In this episode, I reflect on a whirlwind few months filled with travel, transformation, and a major milestone in my business journey. From sun-soaked beaches in Kefalonia to the electric energy of a global convention in Orlando, I share the highs, the lessons, and the moments that made me pause and appreciate how far I've come.

This episode is a celebration of freedom, the kind that comes from building a life on your own terms. I talk about how travel has become more than a passion; it's now a business that gives me flexibility, financial independence, and the ability to help others do the same.

I take you behind the scenes of my experience at our company's convention, where I was honoured to be recognised as a Director, a surreal and proud moment that marks a huge shift in my journey. I also share the joy of spontaneous travel with my family, the magic of Turks and Caicos, and the power of passive income to change lives.

Whether you're dreaming of travel, craving more freedom, or curious about building a business that fits around your life, this episode is for you.
