What does 'financial freedom' mean to you?

When people say to me that they want financial freedom, it takes on so many different meanings, all dependent on the individual.

For some its means:

🐸 More Time – You can choose how you spend your days instead of being controlled by bills or work you don’t love. And you get to catch up more with family or friends.

🐸 More Choices – You get to make decisions based on what you want, not what you can afford in the moment.

🐸 Less Stress – Money stops being a constant worry in the background of your life, or waking you up at stoopid o'clock!.

🐸More Opportunities – You can invest, travel, learn new skills, or take risks without fear of financial collapse.

🐸Peace of Mind – Knowing you’re safe, secure, and able to handle whatever life throws at you.

For me, financial freedom means that I can work because I choose to, not because I have too. And I love to help people, so it brings me so much joy when I can see a change in someone's life because I influenced them in a positive way. And I get to pay it forward and create an even bigger mission - Helens House - a safe place for women starting over.

So when you think about financial freedom, I'd love to know - What does it mean to you?
