11 Years of The Freedom Project: Travel — A Milestone Worth Celebrating

What started as a book turned into a movement. Here’s what I’ve learned 11 years later.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 11 years since The Freedom Project: Travel was first published. What began as a collection of emails, notes, and random thoughts turned into something much bigger than I imagined. I never thought I’d be the author of (what eventually became) a bestselling book. And then a course, a conversation, a movement. I couldn’t have done it without you - so thank you! 🙏

When the book was first released, I didn’t know if anyone would read it, let alone be inspired by it. I was just happy my bucket list item of becoming a published author was “done”. That turned out to be the start of another journey. Over the past decade (and then some), I’ve heard from readers all around the world. People who booked their first (solo) trip. People who dared to apply for that passport or visa. People who finally stopped saying “someday” and just… went.

This was never just a travel book. It was a permission slip.

The world has changed
