What Truly Sets You Free?
Redefining Freedom at 36 and Beyond
What does it truly mean to be free?
Read here for free.
It’s one of those deceptively simple questions that reveals deeper layers the more you sit with it.
Freedom isn’t a one-size-fits-all concept.
It evolves.
It shifts.
It matures with us.
For a woman at 36, freedom might not be about rebellion anymore—it might be about peace.
It might be less about proving something to the world, and more about finally listening to yourself.
Because freedom at this stage of life wears many faces—and none of them are wrong.
For some, it’s
financial independence:
no longer being tied to a partner, a job, or a system that drains more than it gives.
It’s paying your own way, building something of your own, or simply having choices.
For others,
it’s emotional freedom:
releasing old trauma, walking away from codependent relationships, unlearning the need to always please.
