In this episode, I discuss different aspects of freedom like freedom of speech, freedom from fear and freedom of want. Personal stories and experience for all three types of freedom are discussed and you will hear about travelling war zones, special nights out in Georgia and travelling Siberia in winter with -35°C by train. Being yourself is the only way to really become free and you will learn how to find a purpose and thrive. On the downside, freedom can also lead to isolation and loneliness and you will learn how a young billionaire cannot be free at all. Being by yourself can be liberating but at the same time, lots of things that look like freedom when you're with other people are just a form of exile when you're alone. You will learn how the world closed down on me during the lockdown in 2020 and how an embassy called me to move (much) faster.
